Reflecting on Vietnam’s progress since Doi Moi (renewal) began nearly four decades ago, the top legislator highlighted the nation’s economic ascent, with GDP nearing 510 billion USD, ranking 32nd globally and fourth in ASEAN. Per capita GDP is projected to exceed 5,000 USD, placing Vietnam in the upper-middle-income category. He also noted the country’s recent re-election to the U.N. Human Rights Council as evidence of its growing global stature.

According to him, the 15th N.A. includes 151 female deputies, accounting for 30.27% of all lawmakers, a relatively high share. He commended their sharpness, creativity, dedication, and commitment to advancing women’s progress, building happy and modern families, and driving national prosperity.
With a heavy legislative agenda for the rest of 2025, including preparations for the 10th session, Chairman Man urged female deputies, officials, and Party members to uphold the proud traditions of Vietnamese women, leveraging their brainpower, responsibility, enthusiasm, talent, and mettle to improve the legislature’s operation efficiency.
He called on women in N.A. bodies to lead in digital transformation, innovation, research, and technology adoption, spearheading Vietnam’s “Digital Literacy for All” movement.
They were also urged to thoroughly follow Party General Secretary To Lam’s 10 focal orientations and tasks for the Vietnamese women’s movement for 2025–2035, with a vision to 2045, as announced at the VWU’s fifth Patriotic Emulation Congress.
The N.A. Party Committee, Standing Committee, and other bodies will continue with all possible support for women to maximize their potential, excel in their duties, and further contribute to the legislature’s activities, he asserted.
