In his opening speech, N.A. Chairman Tran Thanh Man said that building on the achievements of the previous tenure in developing an electronic parliament, the N.A. has upgraded and launched the “National Assembly 2.0” application with major improvements and new utilities.
He noted the importance of following the Party chief’s directive that science, technology, innovation and digital transformation must serve as a key driving force and the “golden key” to help Vietnam make breakthroughs, overcome challenges, and realize its aspiration for prosperity and strength.
In his speech, General Secretary Lam praised the N.A.’s efforts in methodically and effectively rolling out its “mass digital literacy – digital N.A.” movement in line with the practical needs of each unit.
He stressed that improving digital literacy for officials, civil servants and the public must be considered a core task, closely linked with administrative reform and socio-economic development. The “mass digital literacy” movement must be developed into a revolutionary, nationwide, comprehensive and deeply rooted campaign.
For the coming time, he urged the N.A. Party Committee and relevant agencies to promptly issue the official framework of digital knowledge and skills, along with curricula and training materials following the conference, and to conduct training targeted to the right people, with the right needs.

The Party leader requested coordination with the National Data Centre to integrate training outcomes and digital skills certification of N.A. staff into the VNeID digital ID platform, and to make completion of the “mass digital literacy” program one of the criteria for evaluating officials and Party members in their annual performance and commendation reviews. The goal is to ensure that 100% of deputies, staff and civil servants of the N.A. acquire basic digital knowledge and skills by 2026.
On the occasion, General Secretary Lam, Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh, N.A. Chairman Man and other Party and State leaders pressed the button to launch the “Mass digital literacy – digital National Assembly” platform, and witnessed N.A. units sign a pact of commitments to implement the movement.
