Hanoi (VNA)🔯 – The 15th Congress of the Party Organisation of the National Assembly (NA) Office for the 2025–2030 term convened in Hanoi on July 16.
Politburo member, Secretary of the NA Party Committee, and NA Chairman Tran Thanh Man attended the event.
Addressing the event, Standing Deputy Secretary of the NA Party Committee and NA Vice Chairman Nguyen Khac Dinh stressed the need for the NA Office to undergo strong, comprehensive reform with a new mindset and a more specialised, effective, and better-coordinated approach to meet the demands of the new era.
He urged the Party Organisation of the NA Office to seriously and fully implement the guidelines and resolutions of the Party Central Committee and the NA Party Committee, and to actively contribute to the draft documents for the upcoming congresses at higher levels. He emphasised the importance of mastering the contents of the documents for the 14th National Party Congress and the first Congress of the NA Party Organisation in order to effectively translate them into institutional practices aligned with the specific functions and tasks of the NA Office.
The Vice Chairman also called for further innovation in leadership methods, with a focus on enhancing strategic thinking, forecasting, and scientific working models in policy formulation, resolution implementation, and action planning. He stressed the need for effective coordination with relevant agencies to comprehensively and efficiently fulfil the assigned duties.
He asked the Party Organisation to continue fulfilling its political tasks, restructure its apparatus to ensure organisational stability, and create favourable conditions for cadres and Party members to excel and dedicate themselves to public service.
Additionally, he highlighted the importance of building a clean and strong Party organisation in terms of political integrity, ideology, ethics, and personnel, aiming to enhance leadership capacity, combativeness, and internal political security.
During the 2020–2025 term, the Party Organisation of the NA Office successfully led its subordinate units in fulfilling a significant volume of political tasks, including many that arose beyond its initial action programme. This contributed to the successful tenure of the 15th NA.
The organisation effectively directed advisory work, supporting the NA in issuing a series of historic resolutions such as the amendment of the 2013 Constitution, reforms to the legal system for administrative restructuring, the two-tier local government model, and the review and resolution of legal bottlenecks to unblock stalled projects, particularly during and after the COVID-19 pandemic.
Party building and improving the quality of Party members remained a top priority, thereby enhancing the overall leadership and combat strength of the organisation.
According to a decision by the NA Party Committee’s Standing Board, Le Quang Tung, Party Central Committee member, member of the NA Party Committee’s Standing Board, member of the NA Standing Committee, NA Secretary-General and Chairman of the NA Office, has been appointed as Secretary of the Party Committee of the NA Office for the 2025–2030 term./.
Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh emphasised that the Government and the NA completed a massive workload, reorganising the political structure while outlining measures to promote economic growth, particularly engaging in tariff negotiations with the US.
At this one-day meeting, the NA Standing Committee is scheduled to give opinions on eight major items, including an initial discussion on a thematic supervision report on the implementation of policies and laws related to human resource development, especially high-quality personnel, which are deemed essential for sustainable economic growth in Vietnam's new development phase.
State President Luong Cuong’s trip once again reaffirmed the Party and State’s foreign policy of independence, self-reliance, diversification and multilateralisation of relations. It also reflected the strong trend of enhanced cooperation among countries of the Global South in shaping a new, more multipolar, fair and equitable world order.
The outcomes of Party General Secretary To Lam's visit will serve as a driving force and source of inspiration for the two countries to inherit, promote, and elevate their Comprehensive Strategic Partnership, contributing to the national construction and development cause in each country, and to peace, cooperation, and development in the region and the world.
Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh on August 9 inspected the construction site of the new Phong Chau bridge, and surveyed a planned route for the Lao Cai – Hanoi – Hai Phong railway section running through the northern province of Phu Tho.

The 500kV Lao Cai – Vinh Yen power transmission line has a total investment of over 7.41 trillion VND (282.5 million USD), and a total length of 229.5 km, passing through 31 communes in the two provinces, and comprising 468 transmission tower foundations.
The visits reflected the elevated position of Vietnam’s foreign policy in the new era—aimed at not only advancing ties with key regional partners like Egypt and Angola but also delivering a strategic message about Vietnam’s commitment to deepening relations with African nations as a whole.
At their talks and meetings, President Cuong and Angola’s top leaders affirmed that the close brotherhood and traditional friendship are a valuable shared asset and a solid foundation for the two nations to advance into a new phase of development.
The ruling People’s Movement for the Liberation of Angola (MPLA) attaches great importance to the friendship, solidarity, and comradeship with the Communist Party of Vietnam, and voiced her Party’s wish to further deepen and expand relations between the two sides for the benefit of the Vietnamese and Angolan people.
Vietnam pledges to do its utmost to build an ASEAN of solidarity, consensus, and unity in diversity, and to foster a fast and sustainable development path for ASEAN, grounded in science, technology, and innovation, said Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh.
Party General Secretary To Lam called on the criminal police force to accelerate the application of science, technology, artificial intelligence, and digital transformation in criminal investigation tasks such as crime prevention, detection, tracking and verification, ensuring that no area remains out of their reach.
Many Koreans living, studying, and working in Hanoi see the upcoming state visit to the Republic of Korea (RoK) by Party General Secretary To Lam as an opportunity to generate strong synergy in economic cooperation, people-to-people exchanges, and cultural understanding.
The achievements of the five decades of Vietnam–Angola cooperation provide a strong and enduring foundation, as well as momentum for the two sides to consolidate, expand, and bring their partnership into a new phase of development.
Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh stressed that the emulation and commendation work is a vital driver, fostering patriotism, dedication, and collective momentum in the run-up to the 11th National Patriotic Emulation Congress, Party congresses at all levels, and the 14th National Party Congress.
Emphasising the need for sustainable, long-term collaboration, National Assembly Chairman Tran Thanh Man called on Japanese investors not only to bring in capital but also to share expertise and modern technology, especially in areas such as green transformation, the circular economy, and advanced corporate governance.
