Eleventh Plenum to focus on personnel issues
Ha Noi, Mar. 13 (VNA) -- Party General Secretary Le Kha Phieu called for the "most prominent Party cadres, endowned with both virtue and talent" to be chosen and introduced to the ninth Party Congress for election to the new Central Committee.
Mr. Phieu told the second round of the Party Central Committee's 11th plenum in Ha Noi on March 13, that "personnel issues are of great importance as they play the decisive role after the political line is charted out," adding this is necessary to make the Party leadership fully capable of taking the country toward socialism.
The plenum is part of preparations for the forthcoming ninth National Party Congress.
The Party Central Committee must be composed of worthy people sympolising the will and wisdom of the Party having a high sense of responsibility towards the people, and fully capable of leadership and implementation, Mr.Phieu said.
He put stress on the need to ensure continuity and maintain political stability and effect personnel changes for development not only for the ninth Congress but also for subsequent events.
He wanted special attention to be paid to quality, standards and to evolving a rational organisational structure.
Cadres who lack political firmness; are opportunistic, greedy and ambitious; demonstrate a low sense of discipline; cause disunity, estrange themselves from the public; are bureaucratic and corrupt; or inefficient and irresponsible must not be nominated to the new Party leadership, Mr.Phieu said.
Referring to preparation of official documents to be presented at the ninth Congress, the General Secretary expressed deep thanks to people from all walks of life and from all parts of the country for their opinions and suggestions on the draft Political Report made public early last month.
The Party Central Committee and mass media have received tens of thousands of letters from different parts of the country and abroad, expressing comments and offering ideas on the Party's major policies.
"This can be seen as a profound political activity involving broad sections of the population nationwide," Phieu said.
The Politburo has instructed responsible bodies to sum up and generalise these contributions for making due amendments to the draft Political Report which will be reviewed in the main at this plenum before introduction to the 12th plenum for completion, he said.
Among the senior Party officials present at the ongoing plenum are Party Advisors Do Muoi, Le Duc Anh and Vo Van Kiet.--VNA
