Three key focuses - three disclosures - one benchmark

In his closing remarks at the 13th Central Committee Conference, General Secretary To Lam emphasized: "To translate major policies into concrete results, we need resolute, transparent, and consistent action," and simultaneously proposed the implementation of "three key priorities - three transparencys - one benchmark." This is not only a directive for management but also a core orientation for the process of realizing the Party's policies in the coming period.

Experience shows that many major policies of the Party, although correct and timely, are still slow to be implemented. The main reasons stem from three stages: institutionalization, implementation, and supervision. Therefore, the "three priorities" mentioned by the General Secretary – namely, the rapid institutionalization of resolutions and conclusions of the Central Committee, the Politburo , and the Secretariat; the decisive implementation with specific progress on a weekly, monthly, and quarterly basis; and regular inspection and supervision to promptly address obstacles – are key solutions to remove bottlenecks in the implementation process.

These three priorities are also three crucial links in the policy cycle: planning - implementation - monitoring and evaluation. When organized harmoniously with determination, responsibility, and disciplined action at all levels and sectors, this cycle will create strong implementation capacity.

Along with the three main focuses, the General Secretary emphasized "three transparencies": transparency of progress, transparency of responsibility, and transparency of results. These are principles of modern governance, which have become standard in many countries. Transparency of progress allows everyone to monitor progress and prevents delays from being concealed. Transparency of responsibility clearly identifies individuals and groups accountable, avoiding a situation where "everyone's responsibility is no one's responsibility." Transparency of results provides society with a basis for objective and realistic evaluation. This is how to mobilize the people to participate in supervision, while simultaneously encouraging cadres to uphold a high sense of responsibility, to think boldly, act decisively, and take responsibility.

In the context of digital transformation, the demand for transparency becomes even more feasible, as data can be published on electronic portals and digital platforms, creating opportunities for citizens and businesses to directly monitor it. More importantly, transparency must become a mandatory commitment, no longer an optional choice. Only then will social trust in the governance and leadership capacity of the political system be truly strengthened.

The final highlight in the General Secretary's message is "one measure": the people's standard of living and trust. This is a consistent affirmation that all policies, all action programs, and all reform efforts must ultimately aim at improving the material and spiritual lives of the people.

That measure is reflected in the most familiar things: better public services, faster procedures, wider job and business opportunities, less time spent, a more peaceful society, and a more prosperous and happier life. These aren't dry statistics, but rather the daily experiences of each individual citizen and each household.

Setting such a benchmark also serves as a reminder of accountability: every development achievement, every performance report, must be reflected in the realities of life, in the feelings and beliefs of the people. If people still face difficulties when going through procedures, still worry about social security, and still feel insecure in their daily lives, then it cannot yet be considered a success.

The General Secretary's message opens up a clear call for action across the entire system. In the context of the country entering a new phase of development with many ambitious goals, from building an independent and self-reliant economy with deep integration to developing a digital society and a green economy, the country needs a sufficiently strong implementation mechanism to transform strategic directions into concrete action programs. If the "three priorities - three transparencys - one benchmark" are seriously implemented, we can expect a new phase of national governance: clear principles, consistent policies, effective implementation, a supportive society, and benefits for the people.
