In the context of remarkable advances in technology such as AI, big data, and high-speed telecommunications, this revolution is not simply about streamlining the apparatus and reducing intermediary levels, but more importantly, about pioneering and turning traditional administrative challenges into opportunities for our country to make the most of technological advantages, restructure the development space, and open up new space for growth.

Ensure reasonable decentralization, clear authority, clear responsibility, and effective control mechanisms to maximize the growth potential opened up by this administrative reform, while building a cadre team for the new era.

Therefore, we need to soon improve the law to build a team of responsible, courageous, professional, honest, technologically proficient officials with innovative thinking and development creation capacity. In particular, there is room for officials to be confident, dare to act and boldly act for the common good, for a strong and prosperous Vietnam,” the delegate emphasized.
