The articles and speeches set out orientations, guiding principles and solutions to realize the aspiration of building a rapidly and sustainably developing, independent, self-reliant and resilient Viet Nam, with science, technology and innovation as driving forces, people at the center, and culture as the foundation, while continuously enhancing the country’s position on the international stage.
The book is structured into four parts, covering major orientations in the mindset and guidelines for national development: Part 1: Building a strong Party and political system; Part 2: Creating new drivers for rapid and sustainable economic development; Part 3: Placing the people at the center of all policies; and Part 4: Maintaining peace, ensuring security and elevating Viet Nam’s standing.
Through the selected articles and speeches, the book reflects General Secretary and President To Lam’s mindset, strategic vision, depth of political theory, and standard style of expression on key areas of national development, ranging from politics, economy and culture and society to national defense, security and foreign affairs.
With 856 pages, the book not only provides readers with the content of theoretical and practical values, but also features vivid images of Viet Nam and its people as the country undergoes renewal, develops and makes strong progress in the new era.
The launch of the book “The Aspiration for a Strong and Prosperous Viet Nam in the New Era” is the result of efforts to realize the outcomes of the meeting between Senator, General Secretary of the Mexican Labor Party (PT) Alberto Anaya Gutiérrez and General Secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Viet Nam and President of the Socialist Republic of Viet Nam To Lam during the PT leader’s visit to Viet Nam in August 2026.
This is the first time that a book published by VNA has been released in Mexico as part of a seminar on theoretical exchanges on the role of political parties and a new society.
The book is a testament to the traditional friendship and cooperation between the CPV and the PT, contributing to conveying the message of a peaceful and developing Viet Nam that pursues cooperation, and is a friend, a reliable partner, and a responsible member of the international community. It also serves as a reference for international friends to study and learn about the orientations, guidelines and policies for national development, as well as the strong determination to advance in the new era, as articulated by Viet Nam’s top Party and State leader.
VNA, the national news agency and the Party and State’s key multimedia and multilingual media agency, which plays a core role in ideological and cultural work and is a public service provider under the CPV Central Committee, was honored with the responsibility of publishing the book. Within a short period of time, two units - the VNA Publishing House and the News for Foreign Service Department - worked urgently to compile and publish the book, making it available to readers in time for the seminar on theoretical exchanges on the role of political parties and a new society, held from October 7-10, 2026.
"We would like to express our sincere thanks to the CPV Central Committee Office, the Office of the General Secretary, the CPV Central Committee’s Commission for Publicity, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, and the Mexican Labor Party for their support in enabling the book to be launched in time for this meaningful occasion," the agency said.
