Viet Nam aims for world-class exhibition to celebrate 80 years of National Day

ABO/NDO- Standing Deputy Prime Minister Nguyen Hoa Binh and Deputy Prime Minister Mai Van Chinh on July 2 chaired a meeting with ministries, sectors, and relevant authorities on the preparation and organisation of the National Achievements Exhibition marking the 80th anniversary of the National Day, under the theme “80 Years of the Journey of Independence – Freedom – Happiness”.

In his remarks, Standing Deputy PM Nguyen Hoa Binh emphasised that the chosen theme of the exhibition is highly meaningful which showcases major achievements, promotes the image of Viet Nam and its people, educates about national traditions, and spreads the aspirations for progress and development.

He noted that it will contribute to building and strengthening the great national unity bloc, reinforcing the people’s confidence in the leadership of the Party and the State, and faith in the country’s bright future.

The Deputy PM stressed that the exhibition must meet high-quality standards and be of international calibre; it should leave a strong impression not only on domestic visitors but also on international guests. He called on ministries, sectors, and localities to immediately begin implementing their tasks to meet these outlined requirements.

*Earlier that morning, July 2, Deputy Prime Minister Tran Hong Ha chaired a meeting with ministries and sectors regarding the draft Programme for the Development of the Environmental Industry to 2030, with a vision to 2050.

Deputy PM Tran Hong Ha assessed that the current draft remains merely at the level of an action orientation. Its content is still vague, lacks quantification, and does not clearly designate lead agencies or implementing units.

He instructed the Ministry of Industry and Trade to review existing legal frameworks and policies, and to propose additions to fill current regulatory gaps.

Highlighting the pivotal role of the private sector, the Deputy Prime Minister noted that in areas with high costs, significant risks, or where no capable private enterprises are currently present, the public sector must take the lead – such as in hazardous waste treatment, development of eco-friendly materials, large-scale environmental monitoring, and recycling technologies for wind and solar power waste.
