After listening to delegate Nguyen Van Chi announce the expected time and agenda of the 4th session of the 14th National Assembly, voters of Quan Hanh town expressed their confidence in the innovation in the National Assembly's operations, especially the many urgent issues of voters that have been resolved by all levels and sectors.

Regarding the issue at the upcoming session, voter Dau Khac Vinh, block 2, Quan Hanh town, reflected: Voters are very excited to hear that this session the National Assembly will pass 6 laws.

However, voters hope that the National Assembly will soon pass the Law on Associations, which the previous session of the National Assembly has not yet passed.

"The National Assembly should pay attention to promptly promulgating the Law on Associations, clearly defining responsibilities, which associations continue to operate, which associations merge, and which associations dissolve to improve the effectiveness of associations' operations," Mr. Vinh suggested.

One of the issues that many voters expressed at the voter contact conference was the work of preventing and combating corruption. Voter Hoang Thi, Block 3, Quan Hanh town, commented: Currently, the work of preventing and combating corruption of the Party and the State is very drastic, creating people's trust in the Party and the government.

However, this voter believes that the Central Government is taking strong action but the lower levels are not resolute in fighting corruption. "Along with fighting corruption in major violations, the issue that people are concerned about is dealing with "petty corrupt" officials to clean up the government apparatus at all levels," said Mr. Thi.

"The National Assembly needs to put the Law on Anti-Corruption at the forefront. Anti-corruption work needs to be more drastic, all levels need to take part in a synchronous manner in the fight against corruption and negativity; strictly handle violators, and recover lost assets" - Mr. Thi suggested.

Regarding personnel work, voter Le Thanh Tung said that each cadre and civil servant needs to build a culture of resignation. The State needs to screen cadres and civil servants at all levels to ensure that the state administrative apparatus operates effectively and efficiently.
