Hung Yen (VNA) – Party General Secretary and State President To Lam and a delegation of National Assembly deputies of the northern province of Hung Yen met with voters in Van Giang district on October 17, ahead of the 15th NA’s upcoming eighth session.
At the meeting, Lam provided an update on the country's recent political and socio-economic situation, stressing that Vietnam is on a path of rapid and sustainable growth, with robust national defence.
He expressed his pleasure at the progress made in Hung Yen in recent years, particularly noting Van Giang district's recent recognition as an "advanced new-style rural district" in 2023 - the first district in Hung Yen to achieve this prestigious honour.
Addressing the concerns raised by voters, he placed a strong emphasis on the fight against corruption and negative practices, which he described as a crucial task in Party building and rectification, as well as in building and consolidating a clean and robust political system, and fostering great national unity.
Under the Party leadership and the State management, the anti-corruption efforts have achieved positive results, with no exceptions or prohibited zone, which has been widely welcomed by officials, Party members and the public alike, he said.
He called for drastic action against petty corruption, thorough investigations into cases of public concern and refinement of legal and policy frameworks to better meet practical needs.
It is essential to direct inspection and auditing efforts, improve the effectiveness of awareness campaigns about anti-corruption and operations of the Steering Committee for Prevention and Control of Corruption, Negative Phenomena and Wastefulness, he said.
In response to other issues raised by voters, Lam asked the delegation and local authorities to compile all suggestions and forward them to competent agencies for consideration.
On the occasion, he presented 50 sets of computers to Van Giang district, visited and handed over gifts to the family of war invalids Nguyen Van Than and the family of Dinh Thi Ngan, whose household has escaped povery, in Long Hung commune./.
