Over 100 reports at the event emphasized Marx’s life and ideological heritage and his contributions to the human history, vitality of Marxism in the current condition, valuable historical lessons learnt from Marxism, and Marxism in the cause of building and protecting socialism in Vietnam in the new era.
Speakers at the event also made suggestions to further employ and develop Marxism in a creative manner to suit Vietnam's situation.
Marxism in particular has demonstrated its position and role in Vietnam’s revolutionary cause and national construction and defense. After more than 30 years of Doi Moi (renewal) process, under the sound leadership of the Communist Party of Vietnam with Marxism-Leninism and Ho Chi Minh's Thought serving as its ideological foundation, Vietnam has been well on its way towards industrialization and modernization.
