Ensuring fairness for National Assembly candidates during campaigning

The role of the Vietnam Fatherland Front this time must be demonstrated even better to ensure transparency, democracy and equality of all candidates for the National Assembly.

According to the Central Committee of the Vietnam Fatherland Front, the Standing Committee of the Vietnam Fatherland Front, the level organizing the voter contact conference needs to coordinate with the People's Committee at the same level to organize the conference so that the representative of the People's Committee at the same level can inform the candidates about the basic contents of the local socio-economic situation so that the candidates can develop and plan their action programs before organizing the voter contact conferences.

In case a candidate for National Assembly or Provincial People's Council wants to hear the People's Committee of the district under his/her constituency introduce the socio-economic situation of the districts, towns, and cities, it is necessary to organize for the People's Committee of these constituencies to report to the candidate.

The 3rd Consultative Conference established a list of candidates for the National Assembly introduced by the Central Committee.

Carefully prepare the location, invited members and invitations; announce on mass media in the conference area so that a large number of voters can attend; coordinate to ensure good security and order at the meeting locations. When meeting in the districts, it is necessary to invite voter representatives from all communes in the district to attend...

Organize propaganda in appropriate forms, ensuring fairness among candidates so that voters and people where voter contact conferences are held have the opportunity to better understand candidates for National Assembly deputies and candidates for People's Council deputies.

In an interview, Mr. Le Ba Trinh, Vice Chairman of the Central Committee of the Vietnam Fatherland Front, said that after the 3rd Consultation Conference, qualified candidates were put on the list to be transferred to the Election Committees at all levels and put on the official list. All candidates are equal in expressing their action programs and carrying out election campaigns according to the law.

“Therefore, to maintain fairness between nominated candidates and self-nominated candidates in contacting voters and campaigning, the role of the Vietnam Fatherland Front this time must be demonstrated even better to ensure transparency, democracy and equality for all candidates. That is one of the key tasks of the Central Committee of the Vietnam Fatherland Front in the coming time,” Mr. Trinh said./.
