At a national teleconference reviewing the performance of ethnic minority affairs in 20223 hosted by the Government Committee for Ethnic Minority Affairs, Deputy Prime Minister Tran Luu Quang asked relevant ministries and agencies, from the central to local levels, to pay more attention to the proper implementation of ethnic minority affairs.

He said tasks related to ethnic minority affairs require a certain level of flexibility to adapt to the specific cultural, customary and living conditions of each region. It is also essential to disseminate information to foster unity among the public, preventing them from being manipulated or incited by hostile forces aiming to undermine the Party and the State.

The leader suggested that the committee should continue to play a coordinating role in directing programs for ethnic minority and mountainous communities among various ministries and agencies, avoiding overlapping efforts in the implementation.

Emphasizing the vital importance of building a competent team of officials dedicated to ethnic minority affairs, he urged localities to prioritize the allocation of experienced and capable personnel to support the work, as well as step up the affairs through a decentralized approach.

In order to fulfill ethnic affairs for 2024 and subsequent years, he outlined key tasks such as effectively implementing national target programs, building ethnic-specific projects and policies, amending and supplementing relevant projects and policies to ensure uniformity, among others.

On this occasion, former Deputy Minister and Vice Chairman of the Government Committee for Ethnic Minority Affairs Le Son Hai received a third-class Independence Order while former Deputy Director of the committee’s Digital Transformation Center was honored with a third-class Labor Order in recognition of their outstanding achievements in ethnic minority affairs.
