Personnel affairs are extremely important in current context: Party chief

Addressing the 4th meeting of the 14th National Party Congress’s sub-committee for personnel affairs in Hanoi on March 25, the Party chief, who is also head of the sub-committee, described the upcoming congress as a special milestone in the nation’s development path, which opens up a new era for the country, the era of the nation’s rise to strong development and prosperity.

This is also the moment for a comprehensive and synchronised restructuring of the political system’s organisational apparatus from the central to local levels to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of the system. Additionally, it is a time to strengthen the leadership of the Party, create breakthroughs, and drive the country’s sustainable development, catching up with other advanced nations in the region and the world, he stated.

Stressing the high standards in the quality of planned personnel in this context, the Party leader pointed to the need to review and evaluate the personnel affairs from the 13th National Party Congress and refine the personnel guidelines for the 14th National Party Congress. These must adhere to the Party’s principles, processes, and regulations, ensuring that they are rigorous, democratic, objective, scientific, and practical, said General Secretary Lam.

It must prioritise the quality of personnel and ensuring a balanced and rational structure towards the ultimate goal of establishing a Party Central Committee, Politburo, and Secretariat, particularly key leaders, who are individuals who exemplify moral virtues, capability, and prestige, and demonstrate unity, solidarity, and determination to innovate, driving the Party’s leadership role in the new era while working toward prosperity and happiness for the people, he stressed.

The General Secretary said that the sub-committee basically agreed with the report, proposal and draft personnel plans for the 14th National Party Congress, and lauded the efforts by standing members of the sub-committee. He asked them to continue gathering ideas from all the subcommittee's members and complete the documents before submitting them to the 11th meeting of the 13th Party Central Committee for consideration./
