Making science and technology the driving force for development

Voter Nguyen Doan Xuong - Truong Thi ward (Vinh city):

Hopefully the solutions proposed during the questioning session will be quickly implemented.

Following the entire question-and-answer session this afternoon (July 19), in the question-and-answer session on Science and Technology (S&T), I saw that the explanatory report of the Director of the Department of Science and Technology clearly stated the picture of S&T in the province. The question-and-answer session also helped voters and people understand the policy priorities and state management responsibilities of the S&T sector in contributing to making S&T a driving force for the development of the country and the province.

The content of the questions and answers were very frank and responsible. The questions of the delegates were focused and key. Answering the questions of the delegates about the application of scientific topics, the Director of the Department of Science and Technology admitted that some specific scientific research topics in the field of social sciences and humanities, or some topics in the field of traditional medicine, were very difficult to evaluate the effectiveness in a specific period of time; there were difficulties in connecting with businesses.

I think that the issues that the Director of the Department of Science and Technology answered are also the issues that society is raising and voters are concerned about. What people and society expect most is that the solutions proposed in the question and answer session at this meeting will be quickly implemented, meeting the legitimate demands and aspirations of voters, especially making science and technology truly become the driving force for development of the province.

As a farmer, I see that recently the province has focused on implementing models of applying science and technology to production, especially agricultural production, attracting businesses to invest in the agricultural sector.

I was very impressed with the questioning session of the delegates, because most of the questions raised by the delegates were very focused, in line with the reality and expectations of the people. In addition to focusing on the effective application of scientific research topics into practice, the delegates' questions were concerned with the application of science and technology in agricultural production to create new plant and animal varieties, link production with consumption, build brands, sustainable agricultural models, and avoid the situation of "good harvest, low price".

That shows that the delegates participating in the questioning have a deep understanding of the voters' thoughts and aspirations.

I also appreciate that in addition to being very frank in recognizing and assessing the limitations of the field of science and technology, including the responsibility of the Department of Science and Technology, the Director of the Department has proposed many specific and feasible solutions to continue to overcome the limitations and shortcomings that delegates mentioned during the questioning session.

I am very satisfied and look forward to the solutions presented in the response to the question of the Director of the Department of Science and Technology. Especially for farmers like us, we hope that the province will apply science and technology to build sustainable agricultural models, improve productivity and quality of agricultural products.

Voter Nguyen Thi Song Huong - Lecturer of Analytical Accounting Faculty, Nghe An University of Economics: Science and Technology tasks must have a synchronous and linked scale.

At the question-and-answer session with the Director of the Department of Science and Technology, I was very interested in the issue: the effectiveness of applying scientific research topics to real life. This is an issue that the whole society, especially those who regularly do scientific research, are interested in.

Through following the questioning session, I saw that the concerns were explained by the Director of the Department of Science and Technology, clarifying the current situation, causes and providing specific, feasible solutions in the coming time.

As a lecturer whose teaching work is associated with scientific research, from the practical issues raised by delegates, it is a lesson for us and scientists to have a clearer and more synchronous orientation in implementing research on scientific topics. Clearly define that the connection between scientists and people must be really tight. S&T tasks must have a synchronous and linked scale, and at the same time, not only develop in quantity, but the quality must be further improved, and quickly applied in practice.
