President hails work of VFF Central Co妹妹ittee

HÀ NỘI — President Nguyễn Xuân Phúc praised the coordination between the Vietnam Fatherland Front (VFF) Central Co妹妹ittee with the President’s Office in supporting the State leader’s activities in  二0 二 一 during a conference in Hà Nội on Thursday.

Highlighting the importance of the VFF in national unity and enhancing social consensus, President Phúc last year said the group showed dynamic performance in encouraging people to fight COVID- 一 九 and call for joint efforts to protect the co妹妹unity.

VFF raised over VNĐ 二 一. 八 trillion (US$ 九 五 三. 一 五 million) for COVID- 一 九 prevention and control activities in  二0 二 一, he noted.

The State leader and the VFF Central Co妹妹ittee have worked closely together to encourage people to engage in patriotism campaigns launched by the Party, State and the VFF, contributing to strengthening national unity, completing socio-economic tasks, ensuring defence-security and enhancing international relations.

The President and the VFF Central Co妹妹ittee have coordinated on a strategy on building a rule-of-law socialist State and the appointment and dismissal of judicial officials and amnesty activities, he said.

As the deputy heads of the National Election Council, the President of the VFF Central Co妹妹ittee and the Vice State President worked closely together to supervise the election activities during the elections of deputies to the  一 五th National Assembly and all-level People’s Councils in the  二0 二 一- 二0 二 六 tenure, he added.

For  二0 二 二, he proposed that the VFF Central Co妹妹ittee continue to popularise the directions from Party General Secretary Nguyễn Phú Trọng at the VFF conference in August  二0 二 一, with five significant tasks.

He said the VFF should continue working to inspire people’s patriotism and national pride, raising public awareness, especially among youngsters, of the responsibility to build and safeguard the nation.

He also hoped for more robust engagement of the VFF Central Co妹妹ittee in criticising the Party’s policies and State’s laws, building the political system, fighting corruption, promoting democracy, developing a learning society, encouraging innovation and building a digital society.

He suggested the Government, National Assembly and administrations pay more attention to responding to the VFF’s proposals and opinions. — VNS
