- Dear Presidium of the Congress;
- Dear Comrade Doan Minh Huan, Member of the Party Central Committee, Secretary of Ninh Binh Provincial Party Committee and leaders and former leaders of Ninh Binh province through the periods;
- Dear elders, ladies and gentlemen, comrades and the entire Congress!
Today, I am very happy and excited to join comrade Nguyen Thi Thu Ha, member of the Party Central Committee, Vice President - General Secretary of the Vietnam Fatherland Front Central Committee, to attend the 12th Congress of the Vietnam Fatherland Front of Ninh Binh province (term 2024-2029). First of all, I would like to send my respectful greetings, health wishes, warm feelings and congratulations to the Provincial Party Secretary, leaders, former leaders of the province through the periods, delegates and the entire Congress.
Dear delegates, dear Congress!
I appreciate and agree with the draft documents submitted to the Congress and agree with some of the enthusiastic and responsible comments of the delegates attending the Congress. I would like to discuss with the Congress the following contents:
1. On the general situation of the country and the work of the National Front
In the context of a volatile, complicated, unpredictable world and region, the Russia-Ukraine conflict, and the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, causing serious consequences. However, under the wise leadership of the Party, promoting the tradition, the strength of great national unity combined with the strength of the times, our country has achieved many great achievements, as the late General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong summarized, affirmed by the 13th National Party Congress: "Our country has never had such a foundation, potential, position and international prestige as today". The Party's correct guidelines and policies combined with the strong belief of the people, create a combined strength for our country to overcome many difficulties and challenges, especially steadfastly fighting and defeating the COVID-19 pandemic; resolutely implementing many unprecedented solutions to restore and develop the economy and society, determined to successfully implement the Resolution of the 13th National Party Congress.
At the end of the first 6 months of 2024, GDP increased by 6.42%; total social investment increased by 6.8%; foreign investment capital increased by 8.2%; budget revenue increased by 15.7%; trade surplus by 11.6%; average income per capita increased by 7.4%; enterprises returning to production and newly registered increased by 5.3%. These are telling numbers, proving that the country's socio-economy is on the path of recovery and development, giving us the expectation that we will complete and exceed the 2024 plan targets.
Along with the leadership achieving many great and comprehensive achievements in all fields, the Party and the entire political system continue to pay special attention to the work of the Front. The Politburo has issued a Decision to elevate the Party Delegation of the Vietnam Fatherland Front from being directly under the Secretariat to being directly under the Politburo. This is a historic decision, currently only the Party Delegation of the National Assembly, the Party Committee of the Government and the Party Delegation of the Vietnam Fatherland Front are directly under the Politburo. That shows that the role and mission of the Vietnam Fatherland Front are raised to a new level, in the current revolutionary period.
In particular, the Party Central Committee has summarized 15 years of implementing Resolution No. 23-NQ/TW, issued Resolution No. 43-NQ/TW dated November 24, 2023 on continuing to promote the tradition and strength of great national unity, building our country to be increasingly prosperous and happy. In which, the Vietnam Fatherland Front and socio-political organizations play a very important role, acting as the political core, widely gathering all classes of people, joining hands and hearts to realize the aspiration of building our country to develop strongly, our people to have a prosperous and happy life.
The Secretariat issued Directive No. 22-CT/TW on the Congresses of the Vietnam Fatherland Front at all levels towards the 10th Congress of the Vietnam Fatherland Front for the 2024-2029 term, orienting many very important contents. In particular, it requires the introduction of a comrade from the Standing Committee of the Party Committee at the same level to negotiate and elect to hold the position of Chairman of the Vietnam Fatherland Front Committee.
Professor, PhD, late General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong has devoted much effort to researching theories, summarizing practices, and publishing the book "Promoting the tradition of great national unity, building our country to be increasingly rich, civilized, and happy" with 740 pages and 143 valuable and vivid photos that consistently and thoroughly demonstrate the Party's policy on the role of the People, on practicing democracy, relying on the people to build the Party and the State; on the tradition and strength of great national unity in the cause of building and defending the Fatherland.
Continuing the glorious career of the late General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong, in the article "Determination to build a strong Party, a prosperous, democratic, fair and civilized Vietnam", Professor, Doctor, General Secretary, President To Lam continued to affirm: "Especially attach importance to and constantly strengthen solidarity and unity within the Party, great national solidarity, the close bond between the Party and the People.", "Firmly maintain the stance, viewpoint and practice of "people are the root", "People are the subject and center of the renovation process"; all guidelines and policies must truly originate from the lives, aspirations, rights and legitimate interests of the People, taking the happiness and prosperity of the People as the goal to strive for...".
The above strategic issues demonstrate the special concern of the Party and the Party leader for the role of the People, whose mission the Vietnam Fatherland Front has is to gather, unite, and promote the creativity of the entire People to build and protect the Fatherland. That is a very important political basis for the Congress of the Vietnam Fatherland Front at all levels in this term to determine goals, tasks, breakthrough and feasible solutions to promote the tradition and strength of the Great National Unity to a new height in the new revolutionary period.
2. On the results of implementing the Resolution of the Vietnam Fatherland Front Congress of Ninh Binh province for the 2019-2024 term
During the past term, the Vietnam Fatherland Front of Ninh Binh province has closely followed the goals and tasks set out by the 11th Congress. Under the leadership and direction of Party committees at all levels, the coordination of member organizations, and the facilitation of authorities at all levels, it has strongly and synchronously implemented solutions, taken advantage of favorable opportunities, overcome difficulties, strived, achieved many important results, completed and exceeded 07/07 targets set by the Congress Resolution. I would like to emphasize 05 outstanding results:
Firstly , the spirit of solidarity of the whole province has been highly promoted, resiliently fighting and defeating the COVID-19 pandemic, protecting the lives and property of the people, minimizing the damage caused by the epidemic; During the pandemic, the province has had many effective ways; Under strict isolation conditions, it has coordinated propaganda and mobilized 99.57% of voters to go to the polls, electing at once enough deputies to the 15th National Assembly and People's Councils at all levels for the 2021-2026 term. That is a number that speaks to the spirit of patriotism, national pride, and the trust of voters and people in the regime, first of all in the leadership role of Party committees and authorities at all levels in Ninh Binh province. (The results of the prevention and control of the COVID-19 pandemic once again prove the immortal truth: "It is a hundred times easier without the people, it is ten thousand times harder with the people.")
Second, The work of supervision, social criticism, and giving opinions on building the Party organization and the State administration has been implemented systematically, with quality and efficiency, and has been raised to a new level. The reports and recommendations after supervision, criticism, and giving opinions of the Vietnam Fatherland Front have been basically received by the Party Committees and authorities, promptly directed to resolve, and notified to the People according to the provisions of law. The Vietnam Fatherland Front at all levels in the province is truly a solid bridge between the Party Committees and authorities and the People.
Third, effectively implement patriotic emulation campaigns and movements, especially the campaign "All people unite to build new rural areas and civilized urban areas", the movement "For the poor - no one is left behind". Contribute to 100% of communes, districts and cities meeting the criteria for building new rural areas; Yen Khanh district is recognized as a district meeting advanced new rural standards. The Vietnam Fatherland Front presides over and coordinates with relevant agencies to mobilize social resources of more than 110 billion VND to support the construction and repair of 2,122 "Great Solidarity" houses for poor and near-poor households, demonstrating the profound humanity of the beautiful socialist regime that we are striving for.
Fourthly , the Vietnam Fatherland Front at all levels of the province continues to innovate the content and methods of operation, stick to the grassroots, take the lead in listening to people's opinions, coordinate well in organizing meetings with voters of National Assembly deputies and People's Councils at all levels; effectively organize dialogues to listen to people speak, speak for people to understand, make people believe,... contributing to consolidating and strengthening solidarity and consensus in each village, hamlet, and residential area; Unanimously and jointly work with Party committees and authorities to well resolve new and difficult tasks, especially site clearance, not allowing "hot spots" to occur in the area. In particular, the Vietnam Fatherland Front of Ninh Binh province has connected and created good relationships between dignitaries, officials and Catholics with Buddhists and people of all walks of life in the province, this is a typical example that needs to be replicated.
Five is, The Vietnam Fatherland Front has played a good political core role, widely gathering all classes of people, the spirit of solidarity and consensus of the whole people in the province has been maintained, the trust of all classes of people in the leadership of Party committees at all levels, the administration and management of authorities at all levels has been raised, promoting endogenous resources, the creativity of the people to invest in economic development, ensuring social security.
Besides the achieved results , the work of the Front of Ninh Binh province in the past term also revealed some limitations and shortcomings as stated in the report. I propose that the Congress focus on discussing, clarifying the causes, drawing lessons for better implementation in the next term.
The results of the activities of the Vietnam Fatherland Front of Ninh Binh province for the 2019-2024 term have contributed, together with the Party Committee, government, armed forces and people of all ethnic groups in the province, to strive to achieve many important and comprehensive results in all fields. Political stability, socio-economic development, national defense and security have been consolidated and enhanced, the Party and political system have been built strong, the fight against corruption and negativity has achieved comprehensive results, the tradition and strength of the great solidarity bloc of the whole province have been strongly promoted. Contributing to the first 6 months of 2024, our province has achieved important and comprehensive results: GRDP growth rate reached 8.19%, ranked 12th out of 63 provinces and cities nationwide and ranked 5th out of 11 provinces and cities in the Red River Delta. Compared to the same period in 2023: Industrial production value increased by 6.4%; Total development investment capital increased by 3.3%; Export turnover increased by 10.8%; poverty rate was only 1.86%, education, health care, and social security were given attention, maintaining the Top 5 nationwide in education.
By the end of 2023, Ninh Binh province's per capita income will be in the high group, ranking 11th nationwide, the provincial competitiveness index (CPI) will rank 19th, up 25 places; The planning orientation approved by the Prime Minister bears the distinctive characteristics and aspirations of the army and people of Ninh Binh province - Hoa Lu ancient capital, towards becoming a millennium heritage city, integrating into a global heritage city.
I respectfully request the delegates and the Congress to acknowledge, congratulate and commend the valuable results that the Vietnam Fatherland Front and the entire Ninh Binh province have achieved in the past time.
3. On the direction, goals and tasks of the 12th Congress for the 2024 - 2029 term
In the coming time, the world and regional situation will continue to have complex, rapid and unpredictable developments, which will affect the situation in our country; advantages will be intertwined with difficulties, with more difficulties than advantages, and some unfavorable factors may appear, affecting the thoughts, feelings and moods of social classes and strata, requiring our entire Party, people and army to promote the tradition and strength of great national unity, combine with the strength of the times, promote the spirit of self-reliance and self-reliance, strongly arouse the belief, aspirations and creativity of all classes of people, seize opportunities and advantages, overcome difficulties and challenges, and strive to achieve even greater and more comprehensive results. In that spirit, I would like to suggest 5 contents, requesting the Congress to focus on discussing and agreeing on implementation, specifically:
Firstly , continue to thoroughly grasp the content of Resolution No. 43-NQ/TW dated November 24, 2023 of the 13th Party Central Committee on "Continuing to promote the tradition and strength of great national unity, building our country to be more and more prosperous and happy". Synchronously and effectively deploy 7 groups of solutions identified in the Resolution, suitable to the specific conditions of Ninh Binh province. Create the highest solidarity and consensus, becoming an endogenous strength, a driving force for the development of the province: Said is done, gone is arrived, discussed is agreed, the whole province is determined. If so, any difficulty can be overcome, Ninh Binh province will certainly develop quickly and sustainably.
Second , the Vietnam Fatherland Front at all levels in the province needs to continue to innovate the content and methods of operation, stick to the grassroots, be close to the people, promote the application of information technology, adapt to the digital society to propagate and mobilize the people in the direction of the whole people, comprehensively, with focus, key points, close to the reality of the locality. In particular, I propose and really hope that the Vietnam Fatherland Front and its member organizations will promote extensive propaganda among all classes of people about the heroic cultural and historical traditions of Ninh Binh province - the land of talented people, the ancient capital of Hoa Lu. As one of the 10 major tourist centers of the country, Ninh Binh has many outstanding features: close to Hanoi, the province has 2 world heritages, is a world biosphere reserve, the place has successfully hosted the Vesak Festival twice... hoping that the people will contribute to preserving heritage, preserving natural resources, attracting tourists from all over the country to Ninh Binh to visit and worship, contributing to the successful implementation of the province's specialized resolution on tourism, bringing an increasingly better life to the people.
Third , imbue more deeply with Ho Chi Minh's thought: In the sky, there is nothing more precious than the People, in this world, there is nothing stronger than the united force of the People. Effectively implement the Law on Democracy at the Grassroots Level, further promote the People's right to mastery, and effectively implement the motto: People know, people discuss, people do, people check, people supervise, people benefit . "Taking "people's peace" is the decisive factor for all victories in the cause of building and defending the Fatherland", as the late General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong advised.
Improve the substance of the campaigns and patriotic emulation movements that have been launched: Think honestly, speak honestly, do honestly, get real results, and let the people enjoy real benefits. Focus on implementing the emulation movement "The whole country joins hands to eliminate temporary and dilapidated houses" launched by the Prime Minister and the Presidium of the Central Committee of the Vietnam Fatherland Front and the Program to Build "Self-governed, united, prosperous and happy" residential areas.
(The Vietnam Fatherland Front has no members, so activities in residential areas are the most important, the target of mobilization is the entire population, the nature is comprehensive; how to make the people support good deeds and criticize bad deeds, build each village, hamlet, and residential area to be peaceful, which is an important foundation for the province to stabilize and develop. Building residential areas "Self-governed, united, prosperous, happy" is the highlight of this term)
Fourth , if we want to innovate our thinking and working methods, if we want to improve the results and quality of work... then cadres are the decisive factor. Therefore, in this term, we must work together to promote the training, fostering and training of cadres working for the Front with the motto: Dedication to make people love us/Responsibility to make people love us/Discipline to make people respect us/Dynamics to make people benefit. With the permission of the Congress, I would like to send a message to all cadres working for the Front at all levels: The Vietnam Fatherland Front does not directly make money, does not directly create massive, modern projects, but under the leadership of the Party, the Vietnam Fatherland Front will be the political core, creating "the strength of the people's hearts", which is sometimes more precious than gold and silver. The motivation for our work is the trust of the Party, the love of the people and the lives of a segment of the people who still have many difficulties. We will try to do whatever we can to help them. Doing good work for the Front, bringing happiness to many people, especially the poor and disadvantaged, is also a great honor. The Party and the People have entrusted us with this, so we try our best to do it.
Fifth , in any circumstances, the Vietnam Fatherland Front must fulfill its mission as a solid bridge to maintain the "blood-flesh" relationship between the Party, the State and the People, maintain the solidarity of the Party Committee, solidarity between components, classes, social strata, solidarity between ethnic majority people and ethnic minorities, between religious and non-religious people; between generations of cadres, localities in the province... Broadly gather all social classes, strata and Ninh Binh people inside and outside the province. Strongly arouse creativity, make the highest effort to strive to successfully implement Decision 218/QD-TTg dated March 4, 2024 of the Prime Minister approving the Planning of Ninh Binh province for the period 2021-2030, with a vision to 2050: Build Ninh Binh province by 2030 to be a fairly developed province, a growth pole of the southern provinces of the Red River Delta, basically meeting the criteria of a centrally-governed city with the characteristics of a millennium heritage urban area, a creative city. By 2050, to become a centrally-governed city with the characteristics of a millennium heritage urban area, a creative city; a center for innovative startups of the southern provinces of the Red River Delta.
