"The 14th National Congress of the Communist Party of Vietnam is a major political event of the entire Party, people, and army, which holds special significance in the country’s development process".

The 14th National Congress takes place at a pivotal juncture in the country’s development process: after nearly 40 years of renewal and more than a quarter of a century of extensive international integration, our country is facing great opportunities for breakthrough while also encountering numerous economic, geopolitical, and global challenges. Therefore, the completion of the draft documents – which serve as the foundation for the Party’s and the State’s strategic decisions in the new term – holds particularly important significance.

The innovative contents of the Draft Documents, especially the 18 new and important points, reflect strategic thinking and a long-term vision, affirming the determination to build a Vietnam that is strategically autonomous, nationally resilient, and capable of fast and sustainable development. This draft Political Report not only establishes a new growth model but also emphasizes key driving forces such as innovation, digital transformation, green transition, private sector development, the building of a modern institution, and a focus on human and cultural development.

Delegates attending and contributing opinions at the Conference.

The collection of comments on the Draft Documents - exemplified by the Conference jointly organized on October 29 in Hanoi by the Party Committee of the Vietnam Lawyers Association and the Party Cell of the Vietnam Bar Federation with the participation of over 100 delegates - has demonstrated the democratic, scientific, and highly responsible spirit of the community of jurists and lawyers in contributing to the improvement of the theoretical and legal foundations of the Draft Documents of the 14th National Congress of the Party. It was also an occasion for intellectuals, scientists, artists, entrepreneurs, and people from all walks of life to exercise their wisdom and make recommendations for building the Party and the political system to become increasingly transparent and robust, as well as to put forward practical and realistic proposals that help generate social consensus.

Each contribution is not merely a matter of wording, but also conveys trust, expectations, and aspirations for a bright future of the nation; it represents a concrete action of participation in the process of formulating development guidelines, bringing the spirit of the Party’s resolutions to life, and spreading the strength of great national unity.

Speaking at the Conference, Mr. Nguyen Thai Học – Deputy Secretary of the Party Committee of the Viet Nam Fatherland Front and Central Mass Organizations – highly appreciated the sense of responsibility and professional competence of the community of jurists and lawyers.

“We hope to receive high-quality, practical feedback and recommendations from the community of jurists and lawyers. Today’s Conference, with the participation of legal experts, is expected to generate in-depth contributions that bear the distinctive mark of the legal profession,” Mr. Nguyen Thai Hoc emphasized.

VIn the spirit of “the people know, the people discuss, the people act, the people inspect, the people supervise, and the people benefit,” the movement to comment on the Draft Documents of the 14th National Congress is being implemented in a substantive and extensive manner, ensuring democracy, openness, and transparency. This process serves as an important foundation for the Party to refine its orientations and major decisions in response to the country’s development requirements in the new context.

At the same time, the 18 new points in the current Draft Political Report have drawn significant public attention. These highlights embody the Party’s strategic vision for the new stage of development, such as establishing a new growth model based on innovation; recognizing the private sector as a key driving force; supplementing theoretical foundations for the renewal policy; emphasizing environmental protection as a pillar of development; advancing a modern national education system; adopting flexible and proactive diplomacy for deeper international integration; building a civilized Party; streamlining the organizational apparatus; and promoting the strength of great national unity. These orientations not only align with the rapidly changing global context but also reaffirm the determination to enable Viet Nam’s strong breakthrough, deeper integration, and sustainable development.
