Constantly innovate and improve to continue to improve the quality and efficiency of the Provincial People's Council's operations.

On the afternoon of November 18, at the 24th session, the People's Council of Nghe An province elected comrade Hoang Nghia Hieu - Standing Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee to hold the position of Chairman of the Provincial People's Council, term XVIII, 2021 - 2026.

Dear Comrade Thai Thanh Quy - Member of the Party Central Committee, Deputy Head of the Central Economic Committee, Head of the Provincial National Assembly Delegation,

Dear Comrade Nguyen Duc Trung - Provincial Party Secretary, Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee,

Dear Provincial People's Council Delegates!

Dear guests!

First of all, I would like to sincerely thank the delegates of the Provincial People's Council for their trust and confidence in electing me to hold the position of Chairman of the 18th Provincial People's Council, term 2021 - 2026.

On this occasion, I would like to sincerely thank the Central Party Secretariat and the comrades in the Standing Committee, the Provincial Party Standing Committee, and the Provincial Party Executive Committee for their trust and recommendation to me to be the Chairman of the 18th Provincial People's Council, term 2021 - 2026.

I myself realize that this is an honor and at the same time a great responsibility before the Party Committee, the government, voters and people in the province that the Provincial People's Council delegates have trusted and entrusted me. That responsibility is even more multiplied when this is the time when the whole province is trying to focus on completing and exceeding the goals and targets set by the 19th Provincial Party Congress, term 2020 - 2025 and the 18th Provincial People's Council is entering the final years of the term 2021 - 2026; our province has received the attention of the Central Government through the Politburo's issuance of Resolution No. 39-NQ/TW dated July 18, 2023 on building and developing Nghe An province to 2030, with a vision to 2045; The National Assembly issued Resolution No. 36/2021/QH15 and Resolution No. 137/2023/QH15 on specific mechanisms and policies for the development of Nghe An province, requiring the Provincial People's Council to have correct and timely decisions according to its assigned functions and tasks to effectively promote the Resolutions, build and develop the province to achieve the set goals.

Although the responsibility is great and the responsibility is high, my performance as Chairman of the Provincial People's Council also has many advantages, which is inheriting the achievements of previous generations of leaders; especially recently, when Comrade Thai Thanh Quy was Chairman of the Provincial People's Council, there were many strong and outstanding innovations such as: Flexibly organizing 17 thematic sessions of the Provincial People's Council to meet practical requirements; enhancing the application of information technology to serve the activities of the Provincial People's Council; reducing the time for presenting reports, increasing the time for discussion in the hall, questioning at regular meetings; improving the effectiveness of supervision, survey, questioning, explanation, contacting voters, handling citizens' petitions; strengthening information work, propagating the activities of the People's Council... so that the role and position of the Provincial People's Council are raised, supported by voters and people. Hereby, I would like to express my most sincere thanks to comrade Thai Thanh Quy - Member of the Party Central Committee, Deputy Head of the Central Economic Committee for his great contributions to the activities of the Provincial People's Council in the recent past.

In the coming time, continuing the achievements in the activities of the Provincial People's Council, I will, together with the comrades in the Standing Committee of the Provincial People's Council and the Provincial People's Council Committees, unite, promote democracy, concentrate intelligence, strive, uphold the sense of responsibility before the Party, voters and people, constantly innovate and improve working methods to continue implementing the Project to improve the quality and efficiency of the activities of the 18th Provincial People's Council, term 2021 - 2026, worthy of being a state power agency in the locality, representing the will, aspirations and mastery of voters and people of the province. Continue to lead, direct and effectively implement the key tasks identified during the term, especially digital transformation; improve the quality of coordination in preparing content and organizing meetings; pursue recommendations after supervision, questioning, and contacting voters...

In the process of performing duties and tasks, I personally as well as the Standing Committee of the Provincial People's Council hope to continue to receive the attention, leadership and direction of the Central Government and the Provincial Party Committee; the close coordination of the Provincial National Assembly Delegation, the Provincial People's Committee, the Provincial Fatherland Front Committee and relevant agencies and units; the support and companionship of the leaders of the People's Council Committees, the Delegation Groups, the Provincial People's Council delegates, the officers and civil servants of the Office of the National Assembly Delegation and the Provincial People's Council; especially the trust and support of the voters and the people of the province, which will be a great source of motivation for us to successfully complete the tasks assigned by the voters.

Finally, I would like to wish Comrade Thai Thanh Quy - Member of the Party Central Committee, Deputy Head of the Central Economic Committee; Comrade Nguyen Duc Trung - Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee; delegates of the Provincial People's Council and invited delegates health, happiness and success!

Thank you very much!
