Delegate responsibility, instill confidence, inspire action

On the afternoon of November 4, General Secretary To Lam delivered an important speech at the plenary session of the National Assembly, emphasizing the core ideas on building a socialist rule-of-law state, perfecting the legal system, decentralization and delegation of power along with responsibility and legal security, affirming the role of the ruling Party for the people and the determination to innovate national governance thinking.

The General Secretary's message at the National Assembly not only demonstrated strategic thinking, opening up a profound approach: comments on the draft Document must "go straight to the most fundamental issues of the institution and method of organizing the implementation of state power" but also imbued with the breath of life; was a reminder, calling on National Assembly deputies to contribute comments and perfect the Document, a foundation for the nation's destiny in the coming period.

The highlight of the General Secretary 's message is the frank recognition of existing bottlenecks. When the Party determines to develop the country through the rule of law, all reform efforts must start from the legal system - where thinking and organization of power are most clearly demonstrated. The question "why is the law correct but difficult to implement?" is not just a rhetorical question, but a question of responsibility for the entire system: if the law does not come into life, the people will suffer first; if businesses struggle, it means the development momentum is hindered; if grassroots officials are afraid of mistakes and responsibility, then reform cannot succeed.

From that question, we can see the consistent spirit of finding “stuck points”, handling “low points”, and removing “bottlenecks”. The law is not to make things difficult, but to pave the way. The mechanism is not to control by paperwork, but to give trust, encourage innovation, and ensure fairness and discipline. And this is also a strong reminder: law-making cannot only aim for perfection on paper, but must come from practice, so that people can “easily understand and easily implement”, and officials can “easily implement and dare to implement”.

In addition, the General Secretary focused on a fundamental issue in building a rule-of-law state: controlling power. Not only controlling corruption and negativity, but also controlling stagnation, evasion, and indifference to public service. A rule-of-law society is a society in which “no one is outside the law, no one is above the law, no one is below the law”; all power must be bound by responsibility, transparency, accountability, and for the common good. Here, the spirit of “people-centeredness” is not only a political principle, but also becomes a standard to measure the operation of the entire system.

From that mindset, the requirement for decentralization and delegation of power is set out more clearly and practically than ever. It is not "cut to finish", not "push work down" as an administrative move, but must be accompanied by resources, capacity and legal security. Because decentralization is not only to streamline the apparatus, but also to bring people closer to the State, to make decisions come to life faster, to solve the essential needs of the people without being "soaked", not being "pushed around", not being "asked - waited - waited". Once again, the spirit of "constructive Government" and "action for the people" is affirmed by the highest leader of the Party.

The General Secretary particularly emphasized the Party's ruling role: not only leading by guidelines, but also by organizing implementation, by inspection, by setting an example and by being responsible to the people. That role is not only demonstrated in strategic vision, but also in each specific issue: protecting those who dare to act, fighting against vested interests, strictly handling corruption and negativity, strengthening people's trust, promoting genuine democracy. This is the spirit of innovation in the Party's leadership thinking, in line with the requirements of the times, meeting people's expectations, and creating a foundation for the country to move forward with intelligence, discipline and the people's hearts.

The General Secretary also called for a change in national governance thinking: from management based on administrative orders to management based on law, data, technology and service. This shift is not a choice, but inevitable.

The General Secretary requested that discipline be tightened along with concern for people's lives; the aspiration for development go hand in hand with the task of ensuring social justice; building a strong state goes hand in hand with the goal of not being far from the people; fighting against wrongdoings goes hand in hand with protecting those who dare to innovate. That is the spirit of "taking people as the center", the core value that creates the prestige and vitality of the model of a ruling Party for the people, by the people and based on the people.

At a time when the entire system is looking towards the 14th Congress with a strong desire for innovation, General Secretary To Lam's speech is a reminder and a guideline for the National Assembly, the Government and the entire apparatus: to turn the Resolution into "warmth in life", so that people can see innovation in every procedure, every decision, every response from public authorities; so that every legal document is effectively implemented in villages, schools, businesses, hospitals; so that every National Assembly delegate and every official feels the great responsibility and sacred honor of contributing to shaping the future of the country.

Party documents must become documents of the people; Party resolutions must become a force in daily life; all strategic directions must be transformed into feasible policies, bringing peace, confidence and happiness to the people. The General Secretary's message at the National Assembly not only affirmed the vision, but also assigned responsibility, instilled confidence and strongly aroused the sense of action of each National Assembly delegate.
