There will be specific regulations on cases where young cadres advance beyond their level to leadership positions.

Project "Focusing on building a team of cadres at all levels, especially strategic-level cadres with sufficient capacity, qualities and prestige, equal to the task" presented to the 7th Central Conference,The 12th session attracted public attention.

Notably, the project also discussed the evaluation of cadres that will be linked to the results of completing tasks; giving priority to talented young people for leadership positions, even beyond their level.

According to Mr. Pham Quang Hung, in practice, many comrades have been assigned to positions beyond their levels, such as Mr. To Huy Rua - former Head of the Central Organization Committee, Mr. Nguyen Hoa Binh - Chief Justice of the Supreme People's Court, but we do not have specific regulations or general guidelines, so when arranging and assigning, it is easy to be sequential and standardized, but still mechanical and formal.

“On the one hand, we must thoroughly fight against the “lightning-fast” appointment of officials, but on the other hand, there are also cases of real “lightning-fast” appointments, which are talented people. Therefore, the upcoming Resolution will also propose a national strategic program on talent to attract and gather people inside and outside the Party, including foreigners, to serve the Fatherland. How to create conditions for young officials, empower them to hold positions in the country, ensuring a solid transition between generations” – Mr. Hung said.

Perhaps in the future, the country will have a head of state and key leaders at the age of 40, who are well-rounded people, have improved their knowledge in all aspects, trained through practice and, importantly, are trusted in the Party and among the people, if we pay attention to care, training and fostering, including arranging them to move up the ranks.

Ensure a 3-age leadership structure

From the Resolution of the 3rd Central Committee, Session VIII, it has been stated that in the process of building a cadre team, it is always required to ensure the transition, continuity, and stability between generations. Thus, in the Party Committee or leadership structure, a structure of 3 age groups is always built: young cadres, female cadres, and ethnic cadres.

The recent summary shows that the proportion of young cadres, female cadres and ethnic minority cadres has not met the requirements. This time, the Resolution sets very specific targets for the proportion of young cadres and female cadres at each level. Specifically, strategic-level cadres are proposed to be 15%; leading and managing cadres in ministries, branches and central agencies: 20-25%; local leaders from: 15-20%.

According to the Central Project 7 Drafting CommitteeRegarding cadre work, the inevitable requirement of practice will be to transfer generations between the cadres born and raised during the war, through the difficult period of the country, and the cadres born, raised, and matured in a peaceful environment, studying and training in many different countries around the world. Especially, in the context of technology 4.0, there must be a cadre team, especially a young cadre team, capable of rising up to receive that strength.

One of the requirements is to strengthen political and ideological education, foster revolutionary ideals and outlook on life for cadres in general, and especially take care of young cadres, especially those with capacity and potential.

According to the Drafting Committee, this time it requires the organization of national civil servant entrance examinations and quality checks, implemented nationwide. Through quality checks, ministries, branches and localities will recruit and select officials from that source, to avoid negativity, favoritism and cronyism.

Tightening and standardizing processes and regulations, and arranging for provincial Party Secretaries to be non-locals will change the mindset of nepotism, factionalism, and localism, but must ensure the transition.

Therefore, this time the requirement is that if the structure of young and female cadres cannot be ensured, then leave it empty and arrange and supplement it later. On that basis, we must train and develop them, so that in all leadership structures there must be a structure of 3 age groups.

“More than anyone else, we must delegate authority, nurture, train, plan, proactively identify young cadres, even those above their level, to have a team of future leaders, especially younger key cadres, proactively integrating with the world. That is also an objective requirement, a development trend in the new period” - the Drafting Committee said./.
