Con Cuong strives to implement the targets of the Party Congress Resolution at all levels

PV: Could you tell us about the difficulties of Con Cuong district in the process of implementing the Resolution of the District Party Congress, term?27, term 2020-2025? And what solutions has the district proposed to overcome those difficulties?

Comrade Lo Van Thao:The Resolution of the 27th Con Cuong District Party Congress, term 2020 - 2025 sets out the general goal: "Improving the leadership capacity of Party committees at all levels and the effectiveness and efficiency of government operations; promoting the role of the Fatherland Front and socio-political organizations; mobilizing and effectively using all resources, shifting the economic structure towards sustainable development.

Focus on building new rural areas to improve the material and spiritual life of the people. Gradually build Con Cuong into an ecological urban area, with synchronous basic infrastructure, a culture imbued with national identity, a clean and strong political system, stable borders, and soon become the economic and social center of the Southwest Nghe An region.

To put the Resolution into practice, right after the congress, the Con Cuong District Party Executive Committee organized the study, dissemination and popularization of the resolution's contents to all cadres, party members and people in the area; developed action plans and programs, and assigned specific organizations and individuals responsible for implementation.

However, in the period of 2020 - 2023, Con Cuong has encountered many difficulties in implementing the resolution's goals, namely: The Covid-19 pandemic has greatly affected all aspects of life. The district has had to focus on prioritizing epidemic prevention and ensuring social security. Therefore, some contents under the Action Program to implement the Resolution have been slow to be implemented and are not synchronized.

Entering 2023, the Covid-19 epidemic is basically under control, creating an important premise for economic and social recovery and development. However, the prolonged Russia-Ukraine conflict has caused prices of many goods to increase sharply, affecting the production and business activities of enterprises and people. Many workers in the district who work in other localities are unemployed and have to return to their hometowns.

Regarding Party building work, there are also certain difficulties, especially in the work of developing Party members. To overcome these difficulties, the Standing Committee of Con Cuong District Party Committee has also developed Project 05-DA/HU, dated July 4, 2022, focusing on leadership and direction of implementation on developing and improving the quality of Party members in the period of 2022 - 2025 and the following years.

To restore the economy, Con Cuong District Party Committee promptly directed functional branches to advise and resolve existing problems, overcome difficulties, orient and support people to change production and business models, and adapt to new conditions.

In particular, immediately after the Covid-19 epidemic was controlled, Con Cuong district promptly directed businesses in the hotel, restaurant and tourist service sectors to quickly renovate to serve tourists; along with that, the district has also strengthened the promotion and propaganda of local tourist destinations on the media to attract more tourists to Con Cuong.

PV:Phase 2020-In 2023, what achievements has Con Cuong achieved in implementing the goals of the Resolution of the 27th District Party Congress?

Comrade Lo Van Thao:With drastic and synchronous participation, in the period of 2020 - 2023, Con Cuong district has achieved certain results. In terms of economic development, the average growth rate is 6.5% (the target of the 27th Congress is to reach 10-11%). In terms of cultural and social development, the quality of education has been improved, career guidance and streaming have been well implemented. The health system in the area has been expanded in scale, the quality of medical examination and treatment is increasingly high, meeting the requirements of disease prevention and control and primary health care for the people.

Attention has been paid to hunger eradication, poverty reduction, job creation, and social security. In particular, the district has done a good job of supporting poor households during the Lunar New Year, as well as implementing Directive No. 21-CT/TU on strengthening the Party's leadership in mobilizing and supporting the construction and repair of houses for the poor and those with housing difficulties.

National defense, security and foreign affairs are focused. Every year, the district completes military service as planned, ensuring quality. Political security, border security and social order and safety in the district are stable, with no security and order hotspots. People-to-people diplomacy continues to be strengthened, especially with Laos, contributing to ensuring border security.

Regarding Party building, consolidation and government building, Con Cuong has developed programs and projects to develop and improve the quality of Party members in the area; actively led, innovated, consolidated and arranged the organizational apparatus according to Resolution 6 of the Central Committee; issued Plan 67 - KH/HU dated November 2, 2021 on the rotation and transfer of cadres under the management of the Standing Committee of the District Party Committee, period 2021 - 2025 and effectively implemented it.

The district has seriously implemented the work of inspection, supervision and enforcement of Party discipline, ensuring compliance with principles, processes and procedures as prescribed; thoroughly handling petitions and cases, especially information related to cadres, party members, leaders, etc. Mass mobilization work has created new motivation for people to compete in economic development, hunger eradication, poverty reduction, and building new rural and civilized urban areas. Up to this point, Con Cuong has achieved and exceeded 18/31 targets set by the Congress Resolution; 13/31 targets have not been achieved.

PV:In the coming time, what solutions will Con Cuong propose to continue fulfilling the goals set forth by the Resolutions of Party Congresses at all levels?

Comrade Lo Van Thao:Recently, Con Cuong conducted a mid-term review of the implementation of the Resolution of the Party Congresses at all levels for the 2020-2025 term. We recognize that in the 2023-2025 period, Con Cuong will continue to face difficulties and challenges due to the impact of the Russia-Ukraine conflict; the impact of climate change, natural disasters and floods. Next are difficulties in arranging and solving jobs for workers, especially the youth; difficulties due to the uneven qualifications and capacity of a number of cadres, party members, and people... These will generally affect the process of deploying and implementing tasks.

With these difficulties, it is forecasted that by 2025, Con Cuong will have 26/31 targets achieved and exceeded; 5/31 targets will be difficult to achieve the resolution's target of average economic growth over 5 years; average annual increase in local budget revenue; communes meeting new rural standards; building 43/44 schools meeting national standards and the rate of new party members.

To complete the set targets, Con Cuong District Party Committee requested Party organizations to review the implementation process of tasks, advise on measures and solutions to overcome weaknesses and shortcomings. Con Cuong is well aware that Resolution No. 39-NQ/TW dated July 18, 2023 of the Politburo on building and developing Nghe An province to 2030, with a vision to 2045, is a golden opportunity for development. When Nghe province issues an implementation program, Con Cuong district will concretize and take advantage of this opportunity to build the locality.

Next, Con Cuong will continue to grasp the situation, ideological developments, and public opinions among cadres, party members, and people in the area to promptly provide guidance for people to properly implement policies and guidelines; and to agree and accompany the Party Committee and government in building their homeland.

The district will continue to increase resources to build new rural areas. This is a difficult problem for mountainous districts, however, the locality will try to do well. The district will also strengthen state management in all fields, especially land management, mineral resources, forests, etc. Maintain national defense and security, proactively prevent, fight and suppress all types of crimes, ensure security and order in all situations; create a favorable environment for organizing investment, trade and tourism promotion activities.

Regarding Party building work, continue to seriously and promptly disseminate; resolutely implement the Party's Directives and Resolutions; constantly promote democracy, maintain discipline, solidarity and unity within the Party, and consensus among the people; build a contingent of exemplary, professional, dynamic and creative cadres and Party members; focus on mass mobilization work and inspection and supervision work.

To complete the goals set out by the Resolutions of the Party Congresses at all levels, as well as the spirit of Resolution No. 39-NQ/TW, Con Cuong hopes to continue to receive special attention from the province, especially in terms of support mechanisms and policies; attract and orient investment projects to mountainous districts in general and Con Cuong in particular to solve employment, exploit local potential; handle related issues and problems in the process of compensation and site clearance to implement key projects.
