According to Professor, Honorary Academician Nguyen Van De, Member of the Presidium of the Central Committee of the Vietnam Fatherland Front, Chairman of the Vietnam Private Hospital Association, the Vietnamese private economy is the energy source of the economy. In the national governance structure, the Vietnam Fatherland Front is a constitutional institution of the people, playing a central role in linking the State - market - society.

To transform the spirit of the resolution into implementation capacity, the Fatherland Front needs to operate a synchronous functional architecture including: activating resources, connecting policies, independent supervision, information transparency, while ensuring public-private equality and accompanying the improvement of business standards.

Mr. Nguyen Van De proposed that in the coming time, it is necessary to perfect a synchronous and transparent institution; strongly shift from pre-control to post-control.

Along with that, there needs to be a flexible land mechanism for social security projects; effectively exploiting surplus public assets; updating standards/regulations in a timely manner; allowing flexible pilots; ordering and purchasing public services according to public-private equality, and payment based on output results.

He also proposed removing the "ceiling" on administrative norms; managing based on efficiency, quality, and productivity; ensuring legal safety, and overcoming the "fear of mistakes" mentality in implementation.
