Party chief urges Party, people to meet development goals

Party General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong has urged the entire Party and people from all walks of life to build on the past achievements, thus creating new momentum to realise development goals set by the Party Central Committee (11th tenure) . 

He made the call in his closing speech at the end of the Central Committee’s 10th meeting in Hanoi on January 12, saying that the year of 2015 is significant because it is the final year of realising the Resolution adopted by the 11th National Party Congress and the 2011-2015 socio-economic development plan. 

It is also the mid-year of carrying out the 2011-2020 socio-economic development strategy and the year of hosting Party congresses at all levels towards the 12th National Party Congress. The ASEAN Community is also to take shape during the year, he said, adding that it is a must to make thorough preparations for the Congress in 2015, both in documents and personnel, making it a congress of unity, democracy and reform. 

He outlined key outcomes of the eight-day sitting, saying that the Party Central Committee discussed thoroughly and reached a consensus on major issues of the draft documents of the 12th National Party Congress. The documents will be discussed at Party congresses at all levels.

Reviewing the country’s renewal process over the past 30 years and the five-year implementation of the Resolution adopted by the 11th National Party Congress, he said the country has reaped significant and historic achievements which will create prerequisites for its renovation and development in the coming time. 

In view of domestic and world developments, he suggested more policies to step up industrialisation and modernisation, restructure and develop a socialism-oriented market economy by fine-tuning regulations, renewing growth model and building a workforce of high caliber. 

In the meantime, national defence and security should be strengthened while social progress and fairness ensured, making it easier for the country to pursue its path to global integration, he said. 

He requested more studies on several issues, including international criteria for an industrialised nation and Vietnam’s conditions, the socio-economic targets for the 2016-2020 period, especially the settlement of bad debts, macro-economic stabilisation, improvement of economic climate and competitiveness, restructuring of State-owned enterprises, credit institutions, public investment and farming sector in tandem with new rural development, infrastructure upgrade, among others. 

Delving into a proposal related to a more synchronous political and economic overhaul, the leader stressed that it involves improving administrative procedures and capacity of personnel, especially those working in political system. 

The committee asked for stronger efforts to further accelerate the Party build-up and drive back behaviours of political and moral degradation, thereby creating a high consensus within the Party and the society at large. 

It also discussed many schemes related to the personnel streamlining, the improvement of supervisory roles by public-elected organisations, the Vietnam Fatherland Front and the people, as well as planning for media development and management. 

During the 10th meeting, the committee nominated more officials to strategic positions, cast confidence vote on members of the Politburo and the Secretariat, elected more officials to the Central Committee’s Inspection Commission, among others. 

At the end of his speech, the leader declared that the 10th meeting is a success which will also encourage Vietnam to usher in 2015 with stronger will and motivation.
