VFF needs to urge public involvement in Party building
5/1/17
Party General
Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong asked the Vietnam Fatherland Front (VFF) to
encourage the public to get involved in building the Party and strengthening
the political system at the sixth conference of the front’s Central Committee
in the Mekong Delta city of Can Tho on January 4.
He said the VFF needs to well perform its role
as a supervisor and a provider of social feedback in Party organizations and
local authorities, so as to fight bureaucracy, corruption, wastefulness and
negative phenomena.
He added that the front’s chapters at all levels
must renew working methods to meet the legitimate rights and aspirations of the
people, contributing to strengthening close ties between the people and the
Party and State.
He highlighted the VFF and socio-political
organizations’ responsibility for abiding by the resolution on Party building
and rectification adopted by the fourth plenum of the 12th National Party
Congress.
The Party Chief said each official, cadre, Party
member and VFF chapter must fully grasp the resolution’s significance to the
survival of the Party and nation, thereby taking specific actions to fight
moral degradation as well as expression of “self-transformation” and
“self-evolution” within the Party.
One of the most important tasks is continuing to
build the great national unity with high consensus on ideology and action,
towards the common goal of maintaining national independence and sovereignty,
socio-political stability and building an increasingly prosperous and civilized
nation, he said.
According to him, the VFF’s another crucial task
is calling for public involvement in socio-economic development, including the
campaign “All people stay united to build new-style rural areas and civilized
urban areas” as well as national patriotic emulation drives.
The VFF needs to call on the people to practice
thrift and pool more resources for economic and cultural development, ensuring
social progress and fairness, he said.
In his speech, President of the VFF Central
Committee Nguyen Thien Nhan said the conference is due to review the VFF’s
performance in 2016, adopt the VFF Central Committee’s action program for 2017
and the VFF’s action plan for the implementation of the resolution on Party
building and rectification.
Participants will also sum up three-year
implementation of the Party Central Committee’s Decision on the VFF and
socio-political organizations’ social supervision and criticism regulations,
among others.
Last year, the VFF widely spread the campaigns
“All people stay united to build new-style rural areas and civilized urban
areas”, “Vietnamese prioritize using Vietnamese goods”, “Staying united and
creative to improve output, quality, effectiveness and international
integration”.
The fund “For the Poor” raised VND 1.2 trillion
(USD 52.2 million) while businesses and organizations offered VND 3.46 trillion
(USD 150.4 million) in support of local social welfare programs.
Localities built and repaired 49,949 houses and
provided help for hundreds of thousands of poor households.
Humanitarian activities for the poor and
disaster-stricken victims were also launched.
As 2017 is the second year implementing the
resolution of the 12th National Party Congress and the third year executing the
resolution of the eighth Congress of the VFF and its chapters, the VFF and its
chapters will focus on five key tasks, including raising public awareness of
the power of the great national unity, tapping the people’s creativity and
self-reliance spirit and launching national patriotic emulation campaigns,
upholding democracy and protecting legitimate rights and interests of the
people, fine-tuning mechanisms and improving the operating capacity of the VFF
in the new period, and continuing to expand and improve the quality of
people-to-people diplomacy.
In conclusion, the Party leader asked the Party
units and authorities to work closely with the VFF, and wished that more public
feedback would be collected via the VFF, which will serve as a reference for
the Party to refine its policies and guidelines.
At the event, the VFF appointed more staff to
its Presidium and Central Committee.
