"Dear leaders of the Party, State and Vietnam Fatherland Front!
Dear leaders of central and local departments, ministries and branches!
Dear delegates and all compatriots and comrades!
Today, I am very pleased to join Comrade Vo Thi Anh Xuan, Member of the Party Central Committee, Acting President, Comrade Do Van Chien, Secretary of the Party Central Committee, Chairman of the Central Committee of the Vietnam Fatherland Front, and other leaders of the Party, State, Vietnam Fatherland Front, ministries, central and local agencies, and generous sponsors in attending the Launching Ceremony of the National Emulation Movement to join hands in "eliminating temporary and dilapidated houses" for poor and near-poor households nationwide.
This is an important event of profound humanistic significance in the atmosphere of the whole country competing enthusiastically towards the 49th anniversary of the Liberation of the South, National Reunification and the 70th anniversary of the Dien Bien Phu victory "famous in five continents, shaking the earth".
Dear comrades and countrymen!
After 76 years since President Ho Chi Minh issued the Call for Patriotic Emulation (June 11, 1948), our country has been launching many emulation movements in all fields, creating great material and spiritual strength, encouraging the people of the whole country, arousing patriotism, self-reliance, effectively mobilizing human resources, wealth, and the strength of the people to overcome all difficulties, challenges, and hardships, creating glorious victories for the Vietnamese revolution in the cause of building and defending the socialist Vietnamese Fatherland. Patriotic emulation has become a precious tradition, a priceless asset, a cultural beauty imbued with the identity of our Vietnamese people.
Typically, the movement "Each person works as hard as two for the beloved South" was launched from President Ho Chi Minh's call in 1964, the movements "3 ready", "5 volunteers", "3 responsible"... have made important contributions to the cause of protecting independence, sovereignty, national liberation and national unification.
During the period of peace and innovation, the movements "The whole country joins hands to build new rural areas", "Farmers are good at production and business", "The whole people unite to build a cultural life in residential areas" and recently "The whole country unites, joins hands to compete in preventing, fighting and defeating the COVID-19 pandemic", "Promoting the development of synchronous and modern infrastructure and practicing thrift and fighting waste" ... have created motivation, inspiration, and promoted internal strength for national construction and development, improving material and spiritual life, caring for and protecting people's health.
Dear comrades and countrymen!
In recent times, under the leadership of the Party, the drastic participation of the entire political system, the active participation and consensus of the people and businesses, and the support and assistance of international friends, Vietnam has achieved great and historic achievements, as assessed by General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong: "With all modesty, we can still say that: Our country has never had such a foundation, potential, position and international prestige as today".
Vietnam has become a model for hunger eradication, poverty reduction, implementation of the Millennium Development Goals, national development, restoration and healing of war wounds. It has always paid special attention and had many policies and strategies to support the poor, vulnerable groups, and socio-economic development in disadvantaged areas, remote areas, border areas, islands, and ethnic minority areas; tens of millions of poor households have escaped poverty, many households have an average or well-off life; many poor areas have escaped from poverty, some areas have met new rural standards. Vietnam has completed the United Nations Millennium Development Goals on hunger eradication and poverty reduction early, and is considered by the international community as a bright spot in poverty reduction in the world.
The above results have great significance, affirming the high will and determination of the entire Party, the entire political system, the entire army and the entire people in the cause of hunger eradication and poverty reduction, demonstrating the superiority and good nature of our regime, not sacrificing fairness, social progress, not sacrificing social security, not sacrificing the environment to pursue mere growth.
Supporting housing for families with meritorious services, poor households, and near-poor households is an especially important act, demonstrating the responsibility and morality of "Repaying gratitude" and "Love others as you love yourself", contributing to bringing warm homes to people affected by natural disasters, fires, climate change, the poor, and the disadvantaged so that no one is left behind. With many specific housing support programs and projects, especially the 3 National Target Programs, from 2011 to present, the state budget and socialization have supported the construction and repair of houses for 820,000 families with meritorious services and poor households nationwide; the Vietnam Fatherland Front at all levels has supported the construction of great solidarity houses for 670,000 poor households and households in difficult circumstances.
Currently, according to the review of ministries, branches and localities, the number of poor and near-poor households in need of housing support is over 315,000 households; localities are making efforts to support housing for about 145,000 poor and near-poor households by the end of 2025 (according to the housing support program for poor and near-poor households in poor districts and housing support for poor households in ethnic minority and mountainous areas under 3 National Target Programs).
In recent times, many localities have had creative ways, mobilizing large resources from the State and the People to eliminate temporary and dilapidated houses for poor and near-poor households, such as Dien Bien province has eliminated 5,000 houses, Nghe An has eliminated over 5,600 houses; Central ministries, branches, and enterprises have actively pioneered in eliminating temporary and dilapidated houses, especially the Ministry of Public Security, the Ministry of National Defense... However, up to now, there are still about 170,000 poor and near-poor households that are not eligible for support, having to live in temporary and dilapidated houses, a part of the population still lacks essential infrastructure, basic social services such as clean water, electricity, media coverage, healthcare, education...
On behalf of the Party, State and Central Emulation and Reward Council, I acknowledge, appreciate and thank the efforts of the Vietnam Fatherland Front, the Ministry of Public Security, the Ministry of National Defense, the Ministry of Construction, the Ministry of Labor, War Invalids and Social Affairs, the Ethnic Committee, many ministries, branches and localities that have mobilized organizations, businesses and people from all walks of life to support the construction of solidarity houses and the elimination of temporary and dilapidated houses for poor households across the country.
Dear comrades!
Resolution No. 42-NQ/TW dated January 24, 2023, of the 13th Party Central Committee on continuing to innovate and improve the quality of social policies to meet the requirements of national construction and protection in the new period, has set the goal of "completely eliminating temporary and dilapidated houses for poor households, near-poor households, and people affected by natural disasters and climate change" by 2030 (the 100th anniversary of the Party's founding).
The emulation movement "The whole country joins hands to "eliminate temporary and dilapidated houses" nationwide that we organized today is to concretize Resolution 42, with the goal of mobilizing the construction and repair of 170,000 houses for poor and near-poor households nationwide from now until the end of 2025. With the high determination of the Party, the State, the Vietnam Fatherland Front, the great efforts and drastic actions of the business community and people, I believe that the emulation movement "The whole country joins hands to "eliminate temporary and dilapidated houses" nationwide with its profound and noble humanitarian meaning will receive the positive response and support of organizations, individuals, the whole society, businesses and the whole people with the spirit of the whole people, comprehensiveness, joining hands and solidarity for the poor.
At the meeting of the Central Emulation and Reward Council on August 10, 20233, the Central Emulation and Reward Council decided to launch a national emulation movement to join hands in "eliminating temporary and dilapidated houses" in 2025, and immediately after that, there was urgent preparation by the Central Committee of the Vietnam Fatherland Front, the Central Emulation and Reward Council, and ministries, branches and localities.
Dear delegates and all comrades and compatriots!
After nearly 80 years of national independence, nearly 50 years of national unification and nearly 40 years of renovation, our country has achieved many great and historic achievements, clearly demonstrating the superiority of our regime with a multi-layered, comprehensive and comprehensive social security policy system, caring for and improving the material and spiritual life of the people, including housing, so most households have solid and safe houses.
However, there are still some poor households, negatively affected by natural disasters and climate change, living in simple, makeshift houses that are not safe or do not have any housing, concentrated in remote, disadvantaged, border, island and ethnic minority areas. Due to difficult economic conditions, poor households are not able to improve their housing.
To support poor households with stable and safe housing, gradually improve their living standards, and contribute to sustainable poverty reduction, the entire political system, the entire society, and the entire population need to join hands and take concrete actions to completely resolve the problem of temporary and dilapidated houses for poor households, near-poor households, and people with housing difficulties so that all people can enjoy the fruits of independence and freedom, the fruits of the renovation process with the superiority of the socialist regime, and must pay attention to and take the best care of social policy issues for the people, as General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong said in his closing speech at the 8th Central Conference of the 13th Term.
Dear compatriots and comrades!
Today, we are present in the land of Hoa Binh, rich in revolutionary, cultural and patriotic traditions - a locality with a high rate of poor and near-poor households (about 18%), although there have been many efforts in social security work to help the poor, the number of households in need of housing support is still large - to organize the Launching Ceremony of the Emulation Movement to contribute to raising awareness and action of all levels and sectors in leading, directing, operating and implementing the program to eliminate temporary and dilapidated houses nationwide.
To create a vibrant competitive atmosphere and effectively implement the Movement to eliminate temporary and dilapidated houses, I request all levels, sectors, localities, agencies, units, people and businesses nationwide to promote proactiveness, creativity, flexibility, and responsibility towards the social community, especially the poor, and focus on implementing the following key goals and tasks:
One goal: Strive to complete the task of eliminating temporary and dilapidated houses nationwide by 2025.

Three guarantees : (i) Ensuring appropriate and effective regulations, mechanisms and policies to implement the program; (ii) Ensuring that there are no formalities or embellishments, that the project must be of quality and target the right beneficiaries; (iii) Ensuring effective use of resources, transparency, and fighting negativity, waste and corruption.

The Central Government will allocate budget capital according to the Programs and projects to support housing for people, especially the 3 National Target Programs, housing support projects for poor and near-poor households. Ministries, branches, and localities will arrange and allocate sufficient capital for the programs according to the set plan. Call on all people and businesses to contribute whatever they have, whoever has contributed, whoever has contributed, whoever has contributed, whoever has contributed, whoever has more, whoever has less, to create a movement and trend for the poor, for the movement to eliminate temporary and dilapidated houses.
I propose that the Central Committee of the Vietnam Fatherland Front, socio-political organizations, socio-professional organizations, social organizations, unions, business communities, organizations and individuals at home and abroad actively participate, join hands, contribute and respond to the Movement to eliminate temporary and dilapidated houses in many different ways under the highest possible conditions.

Continue to review, evaluate, and effectively implement 03 National Target Programs, housing support projects for poor and near-poor households under the Program.

Media and press agencies should do a good job of propaganda, creating social consensus for everyone to support, share, and share responsibility in caring for the material and spiritual lives of the people, especially the poor, the disadvantaged, those in difficult circumstances, those negatively affected by natural disasters and climate change, leaving no one behind. Press agencies, the Fatherland Front and mass organizations should promote the role of monitoring and social criticism of social security policies, eliminating temporary and dilapidated houses.
