Comrade Phan Sy Duong:In the 2010-2015 term, despite some difficulties, under the leadership of the district party committee, the consensus of the political system, and the efforts of the entire people, Nghi Loc has achieved a number of achievements in all aspects. These are:

1. The average growth rate in the 5 years reached 9.25%. The total production value in 2015 (SS 2010 price) is estimated at 7,395 billion VND. The average added value per capita in 2015 was 28.1 million VND, an increase of 2.13 times compared to the beginning of the term. The economic structure shifted in a positive direction: The agriculture - forestry - fishery sector reached 23.1%, down 6.7%; the construction industry reached 45%, up 3.5%; trade - services reached 31.9%, up 3.2% compared to the beginning of the term. The total social investment in 2015 is estimated at 3,675 billion VND, the whole period of 2011 - 2015 is estimated at 14,625 billion VND (exceeding the target set by the congress).

During the term, 85 production models with high economic value have been built, many models have an average annual income of over 200 million VND/ha. Livestock has developed stably. The proportion of livestock in the agricultural sector accounts for 45%.

3. Industry - construction grows rapidly, infrastructure is gradually completed. The district has led and directed the work of land clearance to attract investment, so many investment projects in the area have stable and effective production activities such as: Tien Phong Plastic Factory, BSE Electronics, Hoa Sen Steel Sheet, Masan Food Industry Center in the North.

5. The new rural development program has been focused on and directed strongly. By 2015, the average communes in the district achieved 16.1 criteria, an increase of 10 criteria compared to 2010. In 2014, Nghi Xuan and Nghi Thai communes were recognized by the province as meeting new rural standards and 7 communes are striving to be recognized in 2015.

6. Social culture has many positive changes, the material and spiritual life of the people has been improved. Education and training increasingly meet the learning needs of the people, with changes in both scale and quality. Health care for the people has been paid attention to and achieved many results. The quality of medical examination and treatment and health care for the people has been gradually improved. Labor, employment and social security have been well implemented. Effectively implementing programs and projects to eliminate hunger and reduce poverty, in 2014 the poverty rate decreased to 5.65%, expected to decrease to 2.55% in 2015 (Congress Resolution 8.0%).

The quality of grassroots party organizations has been improved, the political system in the educational areas has been strengthened; the work of training, fostering, planning and standardizing the staff has been well implemented.

Reporter:What are the limitations and weaknesses that Nghi Loc Party Committee needs to overcome, comrade?

Comrade Phan Sy Duong:The limitations and weaknesses pointed out by Nghi Loc Party Committee are as follows:

- 3/7 important targets set out in the Congress Resolution have not been completed (economic growth rate; economic structure: agriculture, trade services and average income per capita).

- Economic growth is not sustainable, has not met the targets set by the resolution; economic restructuring is slow; restructuring of crops and livestock towards commodities is not strong.

- Infrastructure development is not yet synchronous, some communes still have difficulties and limitations in attracting investment. Trade and service development is not commensurate with the potential and advantages of the district, and large-scale commercial centers and clusters have not been formed.

- The rate of unemployed workers is still high, especially in areas where large agricultural land has been reclaimed; vocational training and career conversion for rural workers are still limited and do not meet the needs of workers.

- Some issues regarding rural security and religious security are still potentially complicated. The implementation of democratic regulations in some places is not serious; the handling of complaints and denunciations in some cases is not timely and not final.

- The content and methods of operation of the mass mobilization bloc, the Fatherland Front and mass organizations from the district to the grassroots level, although being innovated, are still slow and not comprehensive. The quality of mass mobilization work of the political system in the religious areas is still low. Some of the people's concerns are slow to be grasped and resolved promptly.

Reporter:Could you tell us the lessons learned in the process of leading and directing the implementation of the Congress Resolution, comrade?

Comrade Phan Sy Duong:There are 4 lessons learned that need to be applied in practice as follows:

Firstly, it is necessary to grasp the guidelines, policies, directives and resolutions of the superior Party Committee, especially closely following the reality and the basis to build and promulgate appropriate and correct programs, directives, resolutions, mechanisms and policies for leadership and implementation.

Second, focus on building the grassroots, focusing on promoting widespread democracy among cadres, party members and the people, creating high consensus within the party and the whole society. At the same time, improve the leadership capacity of grassroots party organizations, and the management and operational capacity of governments at all levels.

Third, proactively grasp and make the most of all resources to develop the socio-economy, improve the material and spiritual life of the people, with special attention paid to mobilizing internal resources.

Fourth, do a good job of evaluating, planning, training, fostering, and arranging cadres, especially the team of cadres in charge and leaders at all levels and sectors. Take care to build solidarity and unity within the Party Committee, each agency, unit, and cadres and party members.
