President Luong Cuong delivered a speech directing the Congress.
The stature of a special Congress
On September 30, in a solemn atmosphere at the Provincial Culture and Arts House, the 1st Congress of the Phu Tho Provincial Party Committee, term 2025 - 2030, solemnly opened. On behalf of the Politburo and the Secretariat, President Luong Cuong attended, directed and delivered an important speech, opening up many expectations for a new development stage of the Ancestral Land.
The President affirmed that this is a political event of special significance: the First Congress of Phu Tho province after the merger of three provinces Phu Tho, Vinh Phuc, Hoa Binh . With a larger development space, more potential and opportunities, Phu Tho province is facing new opportunities but also has to face higher requirements and heavier challenges. This Congress, therefore, must carefully consider and accurately decide on the direction, tasks, goals and feasible solutions for the next 5 years.
Overview of the Congress.
Assessing the preparation work, the President acknowledged the seriousness and methodical implementation of Directive 45 of the Politburo and the conclusions and instructions of the Central Committee. The Congress documents were carefully prepared, fully absorbing the guidance and reflecting the major orientations in the draft documents of the 14th National Party Congress. Personnel, action programs, and organizational plans were discussed democratically, achieving high consensus within the entire Party and consensus among the people.
Looking back at the 2020-2025 term, the President emphasized: The Party Committee, government, people of all ethnic groups and armed forces of Phu Tho province have united, made efforts, been creative, overcome many difficulties, and achieved important results in most areas. The average GRDP growth rate is 7.5%/year, higher than the national average; the economic scale ranks 6th out of 34 provinces and cities, leading the Northern Midlands and Mountains region. The investment and business environment has improved; infrastructure is synchronous; the appearance of urban and rural areas has improved.
Provincial Party Secretary Dang Xuan Phong delivered the opening speech at the Congress.
The fields of education - training, health, science - technology have made much progress; social security is guaranteed; the poverty rate has decreased rapidly, down to 2.75% by 2025; temporary and dilapidated houses for people with meritorious services and poor households have been basically eliminated. After the merger, Phu Tho is one of the first localities in the country to complete the criteria to ensure effective operation of commune-level public administrative centers. National defense and security have been maintained, foreign affairs and international cooperation have expanded and become more and more substantial. The work of building and rectifying the Party and the political system has had many positive changes.
Along with the achievements, the President also frankly pointed out the limitations: some targets have not been achieved; potentials and advantages have not been fully exploited; growth quality is not sustainable; state management is still inadequate; science, technology and innovation have not been strongly promoted; the poverty rate in ethnic minority and mountainous areas is still high; the situation of crime and social evils is potentially complicated. The leadership capacity and fighting strength of some Party committees and organizations are still limited; some cadres have not been exemplary, even violated the law and must be dealt with. These are issues that need to be thoroughly discussed by the Congress, clearly identifying the causes and proposing solutions to overcome them.
From the results and lessons learned, the President, on behalf of the Politburo, highly appreciated and warmly congratulated the comprehensive achievements that the Party Committee, government and people of all ethnic groups in Phu Tho province have achieved in the past term, while also noting the weaknesses that need to be overcome more drastically.
Delegates attending the Congress
Turn resolutions into action
Looking forward to the 2025-2030 term, President Luong Cuong agreed with the determination and aspiration of the Phu Tho Party Committee: by 2030, the province will become the center of industry, trade, logistics, tourism, education and training of the region; by 2045, it will become a centrally-run city.
To realize that vision, he suggested that the 1st Executive Committee and the entire Congress focus on discussing and deciding, then seriously, resolutely and systematically organizing implementation. First of all, it is necessary to maintain and strengthen solidarity and unity within the entire Party, especially within the Standing Committee. The work of Party building and rectification needs to be placed at the center, closely linked with improving the leadership capacity and fighting strength of the Party organization, with training and setting examples for cadres, especially leaders.
The 1st Congress of Phu Tho province has special significance.
A key task is to build a streamlined, effective and efficient two-tier local government model. After three months of operation, the new model has received the consensus of more than 99% of the people and 100% of party members. The current challenge is to make the new apparatus actually operate better and more effectively than the old one, taking people's satisfaction as the measure.
Regarding socio-economic development, the President emphasized the need to synchronously implement three strategic breakthroughs: perfecting institutions, focusing on decentralization and delegation of power associated with power control; developing science and technology, digital transformation to create a foundation for sustainable development; promoting the private economic sector to become an important driving force. Along with that, it is necessary to strengthen international integration, effectively attract strategic investment capital, boost exports and develop high-quality service industries. In particular, the province needs to focus on training human resources in engineering, technology, logistics and digital transformation, in accordance with the practical needs of the market.
The President believes that Phu Tho will successfully implement the Resolution of the 1st Congress.
The President also noted that the province must not trade off the environment, culture, and social security for mere growth. Development must be balanced and harmonious among regions; ensure social progress, preserve national cultural identity; protect ecology, and use resources effectively. In every strategy, people must be placed at the center, as the goal and subject of development.
Concluding his speech, the President emphasized: the success of the Congress is very important, but more important is to turn the resolution into concrete actions, with a roadmap, timeline, and clear assignment of responsibilities. The tasks in 2025 must be implemented immediately, so that the people and party members can clearly see the changes from the resolution.
With deep faith in the revolutionary tradition, the spirit of great solidarity, the will of self-reliance of the Party Committee, government, people and armed forces of the province, the President believes that Phu Tho will successfully implement the Resolution of the 1st Congress. The province will become increasingly rich, civilized, happy, worthy of being the sacred land of Hung Kings - the origin of the nation, contributing with the whole country to successfully implement the two 100-year strategic goals.
