The idea is to liberate the entire productive capacity of the economy through private economic development; mobilize all private resources for national development; effectively exploit internal resources, which are fundamental, strategic, and long-term, such as people, nature, historical traditions, and culture; harmoniously combine external resources such as capital, technology, institutions, human resources, and smart governance for private economic development. Thoroughly grasp the ideas and viewpoints, inherit the Party's Resolutions on private economy and other relevant Resolutions; the spirit of General Secretary To Lam's recent article on private economic development.
