All of these achievements are a result of the sound direction of the CPV, creating a stable society both politically and legally, with long-term development policies and programs, added the journalist.

According to Fiorda, Vietnam always promotes economic development, diversifies and expands cooperative relations with all countries, and, at the same time, preserves cultural identity. With a population of 100 million, cultural values such as respect for teachers and the elderly, and freedom to belief and religion are clearly seen in daily life. This shows the sound leadership of the CPV in leading the people not only in political and economic aspects but also in cultural and social life.
