National Assembly Chairman Nguyen Sinh Hung conferred the Labour Order, first class, on the Party Central Committee’s Economic Commission during its national patriotic emulation congress and 65th founding anniversary in Hanoi on September 30.
Outstanding units and individuals were also honoured with medals and certificates of merit and the insignia “For the economic cause of the Party” on the occasion by the Prime Minister.
Founded on September 30, 1950 led by Pham Van Dong, the Commission is tasked with studying and recommending economic and financial policies to central authorities.
Over the past 65 years, the Commission has performed its mission as a strategic socio-economic think-tank of the Party Central Committee, Politburo and Secretariat.
Its achievements are associated with the national patriotic emulation movement raised by generations of staff in the motto “Solidarity, brainpower, renovation and efficiency”.
Addressing the ceremony, Politburo member and permanent member of the Party Central Committee’s Secretariat Le Hong Anh asked the Commission to continue updating officers and Party members on the Party guidelines and State laws and policies on emulation and commendation.
The group was requested to continue spreading the patriotic emulation movement and the drive “Study and follow the moral examples of President Ho Chi Minh” while heeding Party building efforts.
The Commission must thoroughly prepare socio-economic development-related documents for submission to the 12th National Party Congress. They are due to be adopted during subsequent conferences of the Party Central Committee, he said, adding that the documents should focus on initiatives to put the country on the right track for rapid and sustainable development and avoid the middle-income trap.
It was also required to take initiative on updating and forecasting regional and global developments, making positive contributions to policymaking that is relevant to the country’s realities.
In 2013, the Commission undertook all 12 assigned research tasks, including assessing the report on the implementation of the resolution from the 11th Party National Congress on socio-economic development for 2011-2013.
Last year, it produced 15 initiatives which were submitted to the seventh and eighth sessions of the Party Central Committee, as well as the Politburo and Secretariat.-VNA

The Party and State of Vietnam always attach great importance to and give top priority to the development of Vietnam–China relations. Vietnam is ready to work with the Chinese Party and State to further deepen the Comprehensive Strategic Cooperative Partnership and promote the building of the Vietnam-China community with a shared future that carries strategic significance.
Under the leadership of President Ho Chi Minh and the CPV, President Cuong said, the press has been a steadfast force on the ideological and cultural front, rallying the masses to pursue national aspirations.
NA Chairman Tran Thanh Man stressed the need to accelerate the application of artificial intelligence and smart teaching equipment, innovate teaching and assessment methods, and further improve the quality of formal education.
He also pledged that the NA will promote its ongoing supervision, making sure that every promise must lead to results, and every commitment must bring about real changes.

Deputy PM Le Thanh Long proposed countries promote shared values, including building trust, sincerity, and solidarity among nations and peoples; fostering cooperation spirit and responsible behaviour as well as upholding international law and the UN Charter; and placing people at the centre and as the goal, the key player, and the driving force of all policies.

New Zealand is currently one of Vietnam’s most important partners in the region, marked by a high level of political trust, strong and reliable defence and security cooperation, and increasingly open economic, trade, and investment ties.

Addressing concerns over university education spending, Son explained that as public universities gain greater autonomy, the Ministry of Finance has scaled back recurrent state funding. “Over the past decade, as autonomy has increased, the State's support has steadily declined”, he noted
Lao Minister of Foreign Affairs Thongsavanh Phomvihane affirmed that the presence of Vietnamese press offices in Laos vividly demonstrates the great friendship, special solidarity, and comprehensive cooperation between the two nations, as the press is not only a means of communication but also an important bridge for spreading consciousness about the history, values, and strategic depth of the Laos – Vietnam relationship to the people of both countries and the international community.
The country is willing to participate in collective efforts to promote cooperation and mobilise resources to advance the current priority issues of developing countries, such as trade, investment, infrastructure connectivity, making the most of scientific and technological advances for development, and people-to-people exchanges, Hang said.
During the negotiations, the US highly evaluated Vietnam’s goodwill and efforts, affirmed its appreciation for the bilateral relationship, acknowledged Vietnam’s proposals and concerns, and considered these an important basis for continuing discussions and moving towards a final agreement.
The Chairman stressed the need for stricter fiscal discipline, faster digital transformation, and more efficient management of State budget revenues and expenditures.
