The 14th NA’s deputies aged below 45 account for 26.5 percent of the total, reflecting young generations’ role in the national development and voters’ trust to them, she said.
On the occasion, she asked the group’s standing board to outline plans for the tenure and each year, hold seminars to discuss legislature’s agenda, particularly those involving young people, as well as work closely with agencies concerned to improve professional skills.
Deputies were also urged to actively join young parliamentarians’ forums in inter-parliamentary mechanisms to which the Vietnamese NA is a member, boost ties with foreign fellows to raise mutual understanding and rally their support to Vietnam’s stance on domestic, regional and global affairs, towards improving the lawmaking body’s stature in international arena.
