Paying tribute to late Party General Secretary Nguyen Van Linh (1914 – 1998), PM Phuc recalled his great contributions as one of the leaders pioneering in abolishing the bureaucratic and subsidy mechanism and opening up the Doi Moi (Renewal) process - a turning point of historic significance for Vietnam.
