On November 26, in Ho Chi Minh City, delivering the opening speech at the first Autumn Economic Forum 2025 with the theme "Green transformation in the digital age", Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh emphasized Vietnam's three consistent and consistent viewpoints in the transformation process in the digital age.
Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh delivered the opening speech at the first Autumn Economic Forum 2025.
Firstly, all development must take people, the People and businesses as the center, subject, goal, driving force and resource. Vietnam does not trade progress, social justice, environment, social security to pursue mere growth.
The digital transformation aims for a broad, inclusive international solidarity that makes people more prosperous, safer and happier.
Second, Vietnam is a good friend, a reliable partner and a responsible member of the international community in the process of transformation in the digital age. Vietnam persistently pursues an independent and self-reliant foreign policy for peace , friendship, cooperation and development; and is ready to be a friend and reliable partner of all countries.
Vietnam is seriously committed to the millennium goals, committed to development, bringing net emissions to zero by 2050 as committed. Vietnam is ready to open its market, creating a legal corridor to welcome international capital flows and technology from businesses.
Third, resources originate from thinking and vision; motivation originates from innovation and creativity; strength originates from the people and businesses; must combine national strength with the strength of the times, domestic with international, State with People.
Vietnam clearly identified that in order to develop, it must renew traditional growth drivers such as consumption, export, and investment; at the same time, strongly promote new growth drivers: green growth, digital economy, innovation, and circular economy.
Along with that is the innovation of management thinking in the direction of "tight management, development creation", shifting from management thinking to serving the people thinking. This is a revolution in organization and arrangement of the apparatus, cutting intermediaries, reducing administrative procedures.
" Vietnam believes that the opinions and initiatives at the forum will not stop at speeches but will spread, inspire, motivate and be realized through practical actions, opening up new cooperation prospects, contributing to creating a green, digital and humane future for everyone; in the spirit of mutual understanding, shared vision and action, shared development and enjoyment, building a more prosperous, united and harmoniously developed world, " the Prime Minister said.

In particular, green transformation and the development process in the digital age are inevitable trends, objective requirements and the leading strategic choice for the rapid and sustainable development of each country, each enterprise and the whole world.
"All nations are converging in a world where no nation can decide its own mission or the world's; nor can it solve the global challenges of the century alone, including the richest and most powerful nations. No nation is safe if another is unsafe, unstable. No one is safe if others are unsafe.
From there, we need to continue to unite to deal with global issues. Challenges of a national, comprehensive and global nature require a national, comprehensive and global approach and cooperation method; based on the spirit of international solidarity and upholding multilateralism," said Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh.
