Action programme to strengthen great national solidarity

Hanoi (VNA) – The Government on June 19 issued a resolution outlining an action programme to implement the Politburo's Resolution No. 43-NQ/TW, dated November 24, 2023, on promoting traditions and strenthening the great national solidarity bloc for a more prosperous and happier country.

The programme is to identify main and specific tasks for the Government, ministries, sectors, and localities following the Politburo's resolution.

Accordingly, ministers, heads of ministerial-level and Government agencies, and chairpersons of the People's Committees of provinces and centrally-run cities are required to focus on implementing key tasks and solutions, including raising awareness and responsibility among State administrative agencies, all-level authorities, and the public in carrying forward traditions and the great national solidarity bloc.

The programme says the implementation of Resolution No. 43-NQ/TW must be closely linked with the learning and following of President Ho Chi Minh's thoughts on great national solidarity.

It emphasises the necessity of perfecting relevant policies, and fueling the will and aspirations for national development; enhancing the effectiveness of the State apparatus and the political system; further revamping operational methods of the Vietnam Fatherland Front (VFF) and political-social organisations and mass associations; and mobilising all resources to serve national development.

Attention must be paid to building a modern working class, a strong contingent of intellectuals and businesspeople, and a comprehensive, civilised, self-reliant, and self-resilient peasant class; and educating young generations about revolutionary ideals, morality, lifestyle, patriotism, and national pride, nurturing their will and aspirations for making contributions, and raising their sense of responsibility for society and the country, it says.

The programme also highlights the importance of building and rectifying the Party, enhancing unity within the Party, upholding the Party's core leadership in building and promoting traditions and the strength of great national solidarity, and organising practical and effective patriotic emulation movements and campaigns./.
