Supervision for timely settlement of shortcomings
In the 2019-2024 period, the VFF paid great attention to social criticism, contributing to promoting people’s rights to mastery and engagement in the process of building and completing laws, policies, programs, and plans for socio-economic development of localities and the whole country.
According to Politburo member, Secretary of the Party Central Committee and President of the VFF Central Committee Do Van Chien, social supervision and criticism play an important role in the activities of the VFF, socio-political organizations, and VFF member organizations. It is a method of exercising people's mastery and an important information channel to contribute to building a clean and strong Party and State, he underlined.
Chien said that during the recent tenure, the VFF has organized 16 social criticism conferences, while its member organizations conducted social criticism on 19 draft documents.
The Front committees of provinces and cities have chaired 85,886 such conferences, during which many critical ideas have been gathered, helping the Party and State perfect policies and laws and decide important matters of the country and localities.
At the same time, as part of its efforts to participate in the prevention of and combat against corruption and other negative phenomena, the VFF Central Committee has issued an action program to implement the 13th Party Central Committee’s Decision No. 21-KL/TW on strengthening the building and rectification of the Party and the political system, resolutely preventing, repelling, and strictly handling officials and Party members who have degraded in their political ideology, ethics, and lifestyle, and who show signs of "self-evolution" and "self-transformation."
The Front has strengthened anti-corruption communications by organizing a national press competition in the work.
In the 2021-2024 tenure, the VFF and its member organizations effectively implemented the tasks of preparing for the general election amid complicated COVID-19 pandemic situation, while gathering ideas of voters and people with renovated forms and methods.
