Party chief meets with Hanoi voters

General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong shared information regarding the situation in the country, as well as the Party’s anti-corruption work over recent times, while leading the delegation of Hanoi’s National Assembly (NA) deputies to meet with voters in Ba Dinh and Tay Ho districts, on October 12, ahead of the fourth session of the 14th NA.

General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong speaks at the meeting.

At the meeting, the constituents expressed their pleasure at the recent development steps achieved by the country and the capital city, especially the positive outcomes in the Party and State’s efforts against corruption, negative acts and wastefulness.

They also voiced their delight at the success of the recent sixth plenum of the 12th Party Central Committee, stating that the session’s outcomes will help to create excitement and increase the people’s trust in the Party and the State.

The voters called for the acceleration of the anti-corruption campaign, particularly at the grassroot level, whilst touching on many other issues, such as public debts, the equitisation of State-owned enterprises, the alarming deforestation and the downsizing and streamlining of the political apparatus.

General Secretary Trong applauded the wholehearted, frank and constructive opinions raised by the voters, noting that their contributory ideas would be fully noted and submitted to the NA and the relevant agencies for consideration.

The general situation in the country is witnessing a lot of positive transformations, with political, economic and social stability, he said, adding, however, that numerous difficulties and challenges still remain.

With regards to the handling of officials that commit violations, the Party leader shared the voters’ stance that serious punishments are not always the best choice, but more importantly, punishments should help to enlighten violators and improve them as individuals.

In the afternoon, General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong will meet with voters in Hoan Kiem district.
