"Looking at the world, I feel very impatient, countries move very quickly"
Speaking at the opening of the meeting, General Secretary To Lam emphasized that the recent 13th Central Conference established a transformation of the country's development model. In particular, the focus is on economic growth based on science, technology, innovation, and digital transformation. According to the General Secretary, in the world today, developed countries are all based on this content, there is no other way.
"It's not just land, finance, human resources, and labor, but to develop quickly, we need science, technology, and focus on digital transformation. This is a very strict requirement, we must have a unified perception to take common action. If we just do it however we can, we will not be able to achieve the goal. We must be very serious and have a very clear perception about this. This is not something to be used for decoration," said the General Secretary.
The General Secretary emphasized that the recent results of implementing Resolution 57 on science, technology development, innovation, and digital transformation are very remarkable, affirming that they are on the right track.
However, there is still much to do and much in the plan that has not been implemented. Many bottlenecks must continue to be resolved to make further breakthroughs.
"Looking at the world, I feel very impatient, countries are moving very quickly. We must have an international vision, not just in our own backyard, in our own village. We must know where people are going, what they are doing and what we must do," the General Secretary stated.
The General Secretary pointed out that the two recent "tests" from natural disasters and cyberspace have exposed gaps in governance, forecasting, and response capacity. The historic flood following storm No. 11 not only caused great damage to people and property but also exposed many shortcomings and weaknesses.
The question is whether science, technology, innovation and digital transformation have truly become shields to protect people or are they just "plans on paper", fragmented systems that cannot warn or respond promptly when disaster strikes.
The General Secretary pointed out and asked delegates at the meeting to go straight to the limitations and weaknesses, not to avoid them, in order to find drastic solutions for this work.
Determined to fulfill the tasks in 2025
The General Secretary also emphasized that the tasks in 2025 must be resolutely carried out, without delay. If the tasks are not completed in the fourth quarter, the tasks in 2025 will not be completed, thereby delaying the tasks of the next term.
The General Secretary noted that the system has opened up and political determination is there, but there is still a situation of "hot above, cold below". There are still about 90 overdue tasks. There are still bottlenecks, there is still fear of mistakes and fear of responsibility.
The General Secretary affirmed that there must be a mechanism to tighten discipline and order, attaching responsibility to leaders in all tasks. In particular, the completion of specialized national databases and the improvement of the quality of public services must be carried out thoroughly.
The General Secretary cited the fact that people still appeared on television saying they spent the whole morning waiting for public services but could not connect, from high hopes to disappointment. Although the above opinions are small, the General Secretary emphasized that it must not be allowed to be like that, and that such existence is not acceptable.
The General Secretary noted that the energy infrastructure and strategic technology currently have a list of 11 strategic technologies, but there is no implementation plan yet. "I am very worried about this. It has been 9 months but no field has an implementation plan. Who will be responsible for the implementation?", the General Secretary said.
