No wrongdoings or misconducts are allowed to occur at any stage of the upcoming high school graduation exam, in order to build a civilised, modern, humane, and high-quality education system, Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh emphasised on June 18.
Chairing a national conference on the organisation of the examination on June 18, the PM highlighted the historical significance of the examination, as the restructuring of provincial-level administrative units is underway and the two-tier local administration model is set to officially begin operations on July 1.
The resolutions issued by the PM as well as ministries and ministry-level agencies reassign responsibility for 346 administrative procedures - 18 from district to provincial levels, 278 to commune level, and 50 eliminated.
The PM underlined that the current reform “revolution” requires a shift in mindset, habits, and approaches from passively responding to citizens’ needs to proactively meeting them.
Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh’s tour to Europe from June 5 to 14 served as a solid foundation and source of inspiration for Vietnam to continue realising its national development goals and attracting international resources in the new era.
Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh expressed his confidence that with the current momentum, new motivation, and strong resources, the two-tier local administration system will operate smoothly and effectively, bringing tangible benefits to the people.
During the trip, the PM engaged in more than 80 activities. It helped deepen bilateral ties, contributing to peace, cooperation, and development both in the region and the world at large.
The trip, described by Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs Bui Thanh Son as a milestone, highlighted Vietnam’s commitment to leveraging international partnerships to fuel national development while promoting peace and stability.
The PM called for closer, broader, and more effective cooperation with Vietnamese partners, guided by the principles of mutual benefit, joint efforts, shared outcomes, and common development, including promoting stronger public-private partnerships and collaboration with businesses.
On this occasion, the two leaders agreed to elevate bilateral ties to a sectoral strategic partnership in science, technology, and innovation, and pledged to intensify cooperation in various areas, including innovation, high technology, nuclear energy, semiconductors, green and digital transitions.
As part of his official visit to Sweden, Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh held talks with Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson in Stockholm on the morning of June 13 (local time).
Following his official visit to the Republic of Estonia and activities in France, Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh and his Spouse, together with a high-ranking Vietnamese delegation, paid an official visit to the Kingdom of Sweden on June 12-13, at the invitation of Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson. This was the first visit by a Vietnamese Prime Minister to Sweden in six years, aiming to further deepen the relationship between the two countries.
When it comes to Sweden, Vietnamese people think of PM Olof Palme whose name is associated with protests against the war in Vietnam from the 1960s until Vietnam's reunification in 1975.
Princess Victoria expressed hope for increased economic, trade, and investment cooperation between the two countries in the coming time, noting tremendous potential for further development.
Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh said the Vietnamese and Swedish governments would play a facilitating role by setting out major strategies, programmes, and plans, and by creating favourable conditions for businesses to cooperate, invest, and grow together.
Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh on June 12 affirmed that, Vietnam will remain a loyal friend of Sweden, and expressed his confidence that the two nations will continue moving forward together.
In the spirit of harmonious benefits and shared risks, the Vietnamese Government always accompany, support, and create favourable conditions for the business community in general and foreign investors, particularly Swedish enterprises, to achieve successful, sustainable, and long-term investments in Vietnam.
