Briefing the former Party chief on the country’s socio-economic situation and the Government’s direction and administration, the PM said that in the spirit of the 14th National Party Congress, the Government has focused on implementing the Congress’s Resolution and strategic resolutions issued by the Politburo from the very first days of the year, aiming to achieve double-digit growth from 2026 onwards, contributing to the realization of the two centennial goals set for 2030 and 2045.
Regarding Tet preparations, he stressed that in line with the consistent policy of the Party and State not to sacrifice social progress, social justice and social security for mere economic growth, the Government has paid special attention to ensuring a thoughtful Tet celebration so that “no one is left behind”.
Ministries, sectors and localities have been directed to effectively implement directives of the Party Central Committee’s Secretariat and the PM on organizing the 2026 Lunar New Year, ensuring that every person and every household can celebrate a joyful, healthy and safe Tet.
Notably, this year’s Tet is marked by the elimination of temporary and dilapidated houses nationwide. Families in central localities affected by storms and floods in late 2025 have also had their houses repaired or rebuilt under the “Quang Trung Campaign,” enabling them to welcome the New Year in stable conditions.
The PM expressed his hope that former Party General Secretary will continue to enjoy good health and contribute valuable and heartfelt opinions to national development, for the people’s prosperity and happiness.
For his part, the former Party chief expressed his delight at the country’s important socio-economic achievements over the past year, and voiced confidence that under the Party’s leadership, with the National Assembly’s companionship, the Government’s effective administration, and the solidarity of the entire Party, people and armed forces, the nation will continue to gain new achievements in the time ahead.
The same day, PM Chinh visited and extended New Year greetings to the families of late Party General Secretaries Le Duan, Do Muoi, Le Kha Phieu and Nguyen Phu Trong; late Prime Minister Pham Van Dong; and General Vo Nguyen Giap, offering incense in their memory.
