The 15th Party Congress of Hanoi closed on October 28, re-electing Pham Quang Nghi as Secretary for the 2010-15 term.
Nghi, also a Politburo member of the Communist Party of Vietnam Central Committee, pledged to uphold the civilisation and cultural tradition of Hanoi ’s millennium history as well as its titles as a heroic capital, a city for peace and the national heart.
He also called on the entire 75-strong line-up of the newly-elected executive city Party committee to embark on their work immediately in an effort to join the whole nation in speeding up the renewal process and advancing to socialism.
The four-day congress, the first of its kind since the capital city expanded its administrative border, also approved five major targets for the next five years, including a call for an annual average economic growth of between 12 and 13 percent.
Other targets include per-capita incomes of 4,100 USD-4,300 USD and an annual reduction of 1.5-1.8 percent in poverty rate.
The participants reached an overwhelming consensus on two remarkable goals, namely speeding up administrative reforms and intensifying investment in infrastructure to upgrade it to a well-organised and modernised system.
At a post-congress press briefing, newly-elected municipal Party Deputy Secretary Nguyen Cong Soai unveiled a project to train some 500 graduates with high academic records as the next generation of leaders for the municipal Party.
With the project, the next term would see more young talents in the municipal executive Party committee, which this term has just three members under 40 years of age, emphasised the Hanoi Party senior official.
