Prepare well for the Party Congress for the 2025 - 2027 term

Urgent lesson

Hamlet 8, Nghi Lam Commune (Nghi Loc) has a total of more than 270 households and nearly 900 people. The Party cell has 28 party members and the Party cell committee has 3 comrades. Implementing the resolution for the 2022 - 2025 term, the Party cell and Party cell of Hamlet 8 have focused on leadership, taking the example of cadres and party members, especially comrades in the Party cell committee to spread the movement, contributing together with the Nghi Lam Commune Party Committee to achieve the advanced new rural standards and the hamlet was recognized as a typical Cultural Village at the provincial level.

Comrade Nguyen Van Hoa - Secretary of the Party Cell of Hamlet 8, Nghi Lam Commune said: In the coming time, the Party Cell and Party Cell of the Hamlet are determined to continue to lead the development of the Hamlet to a higher level, becoming a "smart village" along with Nghi Lam Commune to meet the model new rural standards. To achieve this goal, the Party Cell and Party Cell's preparations for the Party Congress for the 2025 - 2027 term must be carried out strictly, methodically, and in accordance with regulations; ensuring a correct assessment of the Party Cell's activities in the 2022 - 2025 term, setting out key directions for the 2025 - 2027 term, clearly reviewing the strengths and weaknesses of the Party Committee for the 2022 - 2025 term to draw experience for the new term; at the same time, building a team of Party Committees with capacity, enthusiasm, prestige, and the ability to lead and direct the completion of the resolution of the Party Cell Congress for the 2025 - 2027 term.

Up to this point, the preparation work for the Party Congress of Hamlet 8, Nghi Lam Commune is being carried out with an urgent spirit. Regarding personnel work, the Party Committee has planned and the Party Cell has discussed and commented on it for the first time; now it continues to supplement and prepare to bring it to the Party Cell for the second discussion to finalize the personnel of 4 comrades (including 2 re-elected comrades and 2 new comrades) to elect 3 comrades to the Party Committee, with a surplus of 1 comrade.

At the Dong Xuan hamlet Party Cell, Thanh Tien commune (Thanh Chuong), preparations for the Party Cell Congress have been completed. Party Cell Secretary - Comrade Tran Thi Hue said: The policy of the upper-level Party Committee requires the hamlet chief to be a Party member; therefore, currently, the hamlet is implementing steps to organize the election of the hamlet chief first, then introduce the hamlet chief to be elected to the Party Cell Committee, and elect the Deputy Party Cell Secretary for the 2025 - 2027 term. Regarding the Party Committee's personnel, among the 20 Party members participating in activities (the Party Cell has 10 Party members exempted from activities); in addition to 3 comrades in the Party Cell Committee for the 2022 - 2025 term who are healthy, capable, enthusiastic, and responsible enough to shoulder the hamlet and people's affairs, the remaining Party members are very responsible and ready to accept tasks when assigned. In particular, in recent years, the Party Cell has focused on developing Party members and building a "successor" team. Currently, all heads of organizations in the hamlet are party members. This is an advantage for the personnel work of the party cell for the 2025-2027 term.

Comrade Nguyen Trong Bay - Secretary of the Thanh Tien Commune Party Committee (Thanh Chuong) said: The Thanh Tien Commune Party Committee was selected by the Thanh Chuong District Party Committee to direct the congress for the 2025 - 2030 term. Therefore, the preparation work for the Party cell congress is being directed by the commune Party Committee in a concentrated manner, ensuring compliance with principles, promoting democracy and intelligence of Party members; preparing content, organizing to collect comments and contributions to political reports widely, promoting the intelligence of all Party members. The personnel work of the Party cell, Party cell secretary and deputy Party cell secretary ensures the standards, quantity and regulations of the Party; focusing on discovering and introducing new factors with virtue, talent, high responsibility and dedication to the movement to be elected to the Party cell committee; building the Party cell committee for the new term must ensure quality, inheritance and development, with reasonable quantity and structure for comprehensive leadership. To make the congresses of the Party cells a broad political activity, the Thanh Tien Commune Party Committee has initiated an emulation movement in each Party cell; each Party cell registers at least one project or task, mobilizing all cadres and people to participate.

Also selected as a model congress party, for the Party Committee of Truong Thi Ward (Vinh City), comrade Hoang Ngoc Cu - Secretary of the Party Committee of the ward said: The Party Committee of the ward clearly identifies that the block unit is the "extended arm" of the Party Committee, the government and the political system of the ward; is the place to deploy and concretize the policies, guidelines and policies of the Party and the State; at the same time, it is also the place closest to the people, building a "blood and flesh" relationship between the Party and the people through the Party cell, Party cell and each cadre and Party member in the block. On the other hand, if the ward wants to be strong and develop, each block must be strong and develop to achieve a common result. Therefore, the Party Committee of the ward organized a conference, issued a very specific document directing and guiding the Party cell congress for the 2025 - 2027 term; associated with assigning each Standing member, member of the Standing Committee, member of the Party Executive Committee of the ward to be in charge of, directing and guiding each Party cell.

Secretary of the Party Committee of Truong Thi Ward emphasized: “The personnel of the Party cell committee of the block are mainly elderly; the source for innovation is passive; the number of people with capacity and standards to meet the requirements of the tasks in the trend of promoting digital transformation, increasing activities in the electronic environment; at the same time, currently there is no concurrent holding of positions in the block and hamlet. These are the difficulties for the Party committee and Party cell to select and build personnel. However, with the determination of the Party Committee of the ward; focusing on doing a good job of ideological work, encouraging, motivating, sharing and supporting the daily work of the ward cadres and civil servants for the Party cell committee and the block executive committee, it has created confidence for Party members to be ready to receive and complete the tasks.

Up to this point, the ward has completed the election of block leaders in 16/16 blocks with 100% being party members. The preparation work for the congress for the selected party cell for the model congress has been completed and approved by the ward party committee from documents to personnel and congress work. The remaining party cells are also in the process of approval, ready to hold the congress immediately when there is a congress policy from the higher level.

Focus on removing difficulties and obstacles

According to regulations, the Party cell congress includes 4 contents, including: Summarizing the implementation of the Party cell congress resolution for the 2022 - 2025 term and determining the directions, goals, tasks, and solutions for the 2025 - 2027 term; Reviewing self-criticism and criticism of the Party cell during the term (where there is a Party cell); Providing comments on the draft documents of the 14th Party Congress and documents of the congress of the directly superior Party Committee; Electing the Party cell, Secretary, and Deputy Secretary of the Party cell for the 2025 - 2027 term, electing delegates to attend the grassroots Party Congress for the 2025 - 2030 term.

Up to now, some grassroots party committees have been selected to hold model congresses, especially the Vinh City Party Committee was selected by the Provincial Party Standing Committee to hold a model congress in conjunction with the parallel merger of district-level and commune-level administrative units, so the progress of the Party cell congresses has been pushed forward. However, according to comrade Nguyen Tri An - Deputy Head of the Vinh City Party Committee's Organization Committee, there is currently no draft document of the 14th Party Congress for the Party cell congress to comment on during the congress, so it is waiting for instructions from higher levels.

Regarding this content, at the meeting between the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee and the advisory and support agencies of the Provincial Party Committee on October 23, 2024, comrade Hoang Nghia Hieu - Standing Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee gave instructions to the Party cells to conduct the congress as planned and organize a conference to comment on the congress documents later.

Another issue that many establishments are concerned about is that it is difficult to find people in some Party cells who have the capacity, prestige, enthusiasm, and responsibility, especially those who meet the increasing demands of work in the period of promoting the implementation of digital government, digital economy, digital society, and building "smart villages" in the construction of new-style rural areas.

Comrade Nguyen Trong Anh - Head of the Organizing Committee of Thanh Chuong District Party Committee pointed out that in the locality, there are some Party cells with high party members, some Party cells have young party members but do not take responsibility; some Party cells and masses have more capacity and prestige than Party members, while the policy is given to the block, the hamlet chief must be a Party member. Thanh Chuong district currently has 234 rural Party cells, about 20% of which fall into the above cases. To solve this problem, from the beginning of 2024, the Organizing Committee of Thanh Chuong District Party Committee has advised the Standing Committee of the District Party Committee to issue a document directing and urging the work of developing Party members, including paying attention to the source of receiving Party cell committee members, directing the election of hamlet chiefs who are Party members. For places where it is considered that there is no shortage of personnel who meet all the factors of capacity, prestige and ability to complete tasks in the new term, it is necessary to report to the Party Committee through the Organizing Committee of the District Party Committee to give opinions on each specific case...

Along with the above issues, opinions at some establishments also reflect that the financial resources for serving the Party cell congresses have not been included in the 2024 state budget estimate by the province, while the budget reserve sources at all levels are not available, causing difficulties for the establishments. This is also an issue that the establishments have requested competent authorities to pay attention to and resolve.
