In its article “Vietnam: New board of
leaders promises new positions” on February 1, the newspaper described
Vietnam’s just-concluded 13th National Party Congress a success, with the
result that Nguyen Phu Trong was re-elected as the Party General Secretary in
the 13th tenure, and the new board of leaders is expected to lead the country
to reap further achievements.
2021 is the first year that the new
leaders will implement the Resolution adopted at the 13th Party Congress, the
2021-2025 socio-economic development plan, and the 2021-2030 socio-economic
development strategy.
Promoting the country’s achievements
after 35 years of Doi Moi (Reform), with consensus and determination of both
political system and the whole people, Vietnam will soon realise its target of
becoming a prosperous nation soon, the article wrote.
This milestone marks the turning point
for Vietnam in the next five years with great hope among its people that under
the new leadership, Vietnam is determined to continue its positive role in
building and shaping multilateral institutions as a non-permanent member of the
UN Security Council in the year of the 2020-2021 term.
Vietnam has been recognised by the
international community as a “beacon” in pandemic prevention and control and
socio-economic development, ensuring social security. Last year, despite being
shattered by the pandemic and severe droughts and floods, the Communist Party
of Vietnam led the country to attain remarkable achievements in all sectors.
This creates a solid foundation for the Southeast Asian country to enter 2021,
and concretise the goal to build a powerful nation.
The article also highlighted Vietnam’s
export with turnover reaching nearly 281.5 billion USD in 2020 with average
export growth of about 11.7 percent per year from 2016 to 2020. The size of its
economy has increased 1.4-fold since the beginning of the 2016-2020 period.
Vietnam has become the fourth-largest economy in ASEAN, and a manufacturing hub
in the Asia-Pacific region./.
