Participants at the conference discussed the implementation of the resolution on enhancing the leadership capacity and combative spirit of Party organisations and the quality of cadres and Party members, recently adopted at the sixth conference of the 10th Party Central Committee.
Mr Manh praised the Party Central Committee's Commission for Organisation and Party organisations for the achievements in Party building work and pointed out weaknesses in organisational structure, leadership capacity and slow progress in renewing Party-related activities, including the exercise of criticism and self-criticism.
To fulfil the heavy workload of Party building work in 2008 and the remaining years of the 10th Party tenure, Mr Manh asked Party organisations to carry out the work in harmony with the campaign of “Studying and Following the late President Ho Chi Minh’s moral example”.
“First and foremost the task is to build a contingent of cadres and Party members who acquire revolutionary morality, perform their vanguard role and follow the principle of actions speak louder than words,” said Mr Manh. “Through these cadres and Party members, people understand, trust and follow the Party. Whether the Party is strong or weak depends on these cadres and Party members.”
He asked Party organisations to grasp and implement the principle of democratic centralism, particularly in appointing key cadres to Party cells and administration agencies, frequently exercise criticism and self-criticism, and fight individualism and opportunism.
“Promoting unity will decide the success or failure of the Party leadership,” said Mr Manh.
In the context of deeper international integration, he said Party organisations should focus on protecting the Party’s political programme, guidelines and principles and foiling the plots by hostile forces as part of the tasks to defend and promote unity within the Party.
Mr Manh said it is imperative to make clear the functions, tasks and organisational structure of boards of Party affairs, Party organisations in State agencies and socio-political organisations, renew the appointment of cadres, build and strengthen Party cells and increase the quality of Party members at a grassroots level.
He also stressed the need to perfect the Party’s leadership capacity, including supplementing and amending several regulations on functions and tasks of Party cells and key figures, while promoting theoretical study and developing practical conclusions.
