On the afternoon of October 1, at the Government Headquarters, Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh chaired a meeting of the Government Standing Committee with the Vietnam Fatherland Front, ministries and agencies on implementing support for eliminating temporary and dilapidated houses for poor and near-poor households.
Also attending were Politburo members: Do Van Chien, Secretary of the Party Central Committee, Chairman of the Central Committee of the Vietnam Fatherland Front; Nguyen Hoa Binh, Permanent Deputy Prime Minister; Party Central Committee members, Deputy Prime Ministers Tran Hong Ha and Le Thanh Long; leaders of ministries, branches and central agencies.
In his opening remarks, Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh said that the emulation movement "Joining hands to eliminate temporary and dilapidated houses nationwide in 2025" has been launched and implemented effectively and informally, but reality shows that it is necessary to have new approaches, strengthen supervision, inspection, and supervision, assign more specific tasks, and mobilize the entire political system to complete the goal of eliminating temporary and dilapidated houses nationwide, to welcome the 14th National Party Congress and celebrate the 80th anniversary of National Day, the 50th anniversary of the Liberation of the South, and the reunification of the country.
The Prime Minister said that through the leadership, monitoring of the situation and recent field surveys in Hoa Binh, it has been shown that with the support of the State, it is necessary to strongly promote the spirit of self-reliance, self-reliance, and self-care of the people, along with the help of neighbors, relatives, and socio-political organizations such as youth and women. Thanks to that, there are near-poor households that the State only supported with more than 50 million VND but have been able to build solid houses worth more than 200 million VND, as the reality in Hoa Binh that the Prime Minister witnessed.
The Prime Minister stated that from the practical implementation of the movement, including the Ministry of National Defense, the Public Security, and localities, lessons have been drawn from mobilizing the entire political system to participate, assigning tasks, for example, the total number at launch was 170,000 houses, then distributing them to ministries, branches, and localities; paying attention to the most effective form to promote the initiative and creativity of ministries, branches, localities, and families benefiting from the policy; reducing intermediaries, thereby implementing the movement quickly, without loss, without having to inspect and supervise a lot, and fighting negativity and corruption.
The Prime Minister also noted that after launching the movement, it is necessary to nurture and breathe life into the movement, ensuring substance, not formality, so that people truly benefit; doing this movement to do other movements such as the 500-day emulation campaign to complete 3,000km of highways in 2025.
