The achievements over nearly 40 years of renovation are the foundation and important conditions for Vietnam to realize its strategic vision, enter a new era, an era of national growth, and build a peaceful, independent, democratic, prosperous, civilized, happy Vietnam, steadily moving towards socialism.
The three core pillars of Vietnamese socialism are a socialist-oriented market economy, a socialist rule-of-law state, and socialist democracy. These three pillars have a dialectical relationship, influencing and influencing each other.
The foundation of the three pillars is the people, “the people are the root”, “the people are the master”, “the people are the center”, the people are both the goal and the driving force, the resource for national development and national defense. The socialist-oriented market economy is the basis and foundation of the socialist rule of law state and socialist democracy; the socialist rule of law state and socialist democracy promote the strong development of the socialist-oriented market economy.

The macro economy is basically stable, inflation is under control, major balances of the economy are ensured, maintaining a relatively high economic growth compared to the region and the world. Labor productivity has continuously increased, increasing by 6.05% in the 2016-2020 period and 8.94% in the 2021-2023 period.
Growth relies more on science, technology and innovation. The contribution of TFP to economic growth is increasingly larger, 34.75% in the 2011-2015 period, 46.04% in the 2016-2020 period, and 37.61% in the 2021-2023 period. The material and spiritual life of the people has been significantly improved.
