The presence of two top leaders and chief of the nation’s largest mass
organisation at a national conference of people’s committees and
people’s councils has demonstrated the administration’s care to public
involvement to State management.
High profile
presence at the event, which was opened in Hanoi on September 11,
included Prime Minister Nguyen Tan Dung, National Assembly Chairman
Nguyen Phu Trong and President of the Vietnam Fatherland Front Central
Committee Huynh Dam.
PM Dung opened the meeting by
recognising important contributions to national achievements over the
recent past by local people’s councils and committees.
He said the two agencies have managed to reform their performance and
take innovation in State management at the local level during the
2004-11 term.
The Government leader urged them to
improve the quality of inspection and supervision which remain
inefficient in several localities, resulting in wastefulness and losses
in project execution and poor management of natural resources such as
land and minerals.
Dung asked the People’s
Committee at all levels to focus on inflation control and socio-economic
development so as to join the entire nation in achieving the GDP growth
rate of at least 6.5 percent in 2010 as planned.
The People’s Committee is the official name of the local administration
while the People’s Council consists of representatives of people of all
walks of life in residential quarters./.
