General Ngo Xuan Lich addressing the opening session of the conference

Addressing the opening session of the conference, General Ngo Xuan Lich stressed that the resolution and conclusion adopted at the fourth meeting of the 12th Party Central Committee hold a long-term strategic vision, and is very important to the successful implementation of the Resolution of the 12th National Party Congress, especially Resolution 04-NQ/TW on “Enhancing Party building and revamping; preventing and controlling the ideological, political and lifestyle degradation as well as internal ‘self-evolution’ and ‘self-transformation’.”

The resolution shows a high sense of determination of the Party in building and revamping the Party with serious and strict revision of shortcomings, pinpointing expressions of degradation in political-ideological and ethical fields. On that basis, General Ngo Xuan Lich set out strict requirements for cadres at the meeting.
