Head of the Party Central Committee Economic Commission Tran Tuan Anh proposed focusing on three matters to help boost Vietnam’s industrialization and modernization process.

Addressing the Industry 4.0 Summit, which was hosted by the commission and opened in Hanoi on June 14, Mr. Anh said that, firstly, it is necessary to exchange and learn from international experience in industrialization and modernization based on science and technology and innovation. This process will help to serve as the foundation for boosting digital transformation and green transition in Vietnam.

Secondly, he pointed to the need to clarify the situation of digital transformation and green transition in Vietnam, particularly the reasons behind the results, shortcomings, and limitations.

Thirdly, Mr. Anh suggested discussing and proposing solutions and policies to institutionalize and cement the viewpoints, tasks, and solutions set by the Party Central Committee’s Resolution No. 29 on the country’s industrialization and modernization to 2030 with a vision towards 2045. In particular, it is important to discuss those relating to digital transformation and green transition, to create breakthroughs for industrialization and modernization.

In addition, the head of the Party Central Committee Economic Commission requested to urgently develop and implement a national program on improving the capacity of independence, and self-reliance of Vietnamese manufacturing until 2045 (Made in Vietnam 2045).

In particular, the focus should be on improving self-reliance in raw materials, technology, production and markets, enhancing creativity and design capacity, and developing high-tech-intensive industries, high value-added and low-carbon industries.

Policies should focus on prioritizing and encouraging enterprises to invest in innovation, absorption and mastery of technologies, especially core and source technologies.
