General Secretary and President To Lam visits 'red address' for training Chinese officials
General Secretary and President To Lam highly appreciated the achievements that the Central Party School of China has made, deserving to be a "red address" and "red school" for Chinese officials to study.
On the morning of August 20, General Secretary and President To Lam visited and worked at the Central Party School of the Communist Party of China (Central Party School of China).
The Central Party School of China is a training school for middle- and senior-level leaders and youth cadres nationwide; it plays an important role in researching, disseminating, and promoting the Party's ideological and theoretical construction. It is a national research institution for social sciences and philosophy, as well as a new-type high-level think tank with Chinese characteristics.
General Secretary and President of China Xi Jinping was the Principal of this school. Chinese leaders such as Mao Zedong and Liu Shaoqi have also served as Principals.

Speaking at the meeting, General Secretary and President To Lam highly appreciated and congratulated the achievements that the school has made, deserving to be a "red address", "red school" for officials at all levels, sectors, and state-owned enterprises of China to study, improve their qualifications and cultivate themselves.
General Secretary and President To Lam believes that with its long history, important contributions and outstanding achievements, the Central Party School of China has accumulated many good experiences and good practices in many aspects, including research, teaching, training, team building, innovation, technology application, and development promotion, so that Vietnam can refer to and learn from.
The great achievements China has made today are the brilliant practical results of the pioneering theory of the Communist Party of China, crystallized in Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era.
General Secretary and President To Lam said that since its inception, the Communist Party of Vietnam has always steadfastly pursued the goal of national independence associated with socialism.
The Party has led the people to struggle and strive to achieve great achievements, regain national independence, and gain many glorious victories in the cause of protecting and building the country. Vietnam "has never had such a foundation, potential, position and international prestige as it does today" as affirmed by the 13th Party Congress.
As the founder, leader and trainer of the Communist Party of Vietnam, during the process of leading the revolution, President Ho Chi Minh always affirmed that cadres and cadre work are a "very important, very urgent" issue, "deciding everything" and "cadres are the root of all work", so "training cadres is the root work of the Party".
Inheriting and developing Ho Chi Minh's Thought, issues of cadres and theory have always been one of the core issues, especially emphasized and given importance through the Congresses of the Communist Party of Vietnam.

The work of cadres, cadre training and theoretical work received special attention from the late General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong - an exceptionally outstanding leader of the Party and the Vietnamese people, a loyal and prestigious party member, a shining example of studying and following Ho Chi Minh's ideology, morality and style, a sharp theorist and "a great friend of the Chinese people" as written by General Secretary and President of China Xi Jinping.
General Secretary and President To Lam said that over the years, the cooperative relationship between the Central Party School of China and Vietnamese partners, including the Ho Chi Minh National Academy of Politics, has been continuously consolidated, enhanced and developed extensively.
The two schools have had more than 30 years of cooperation (since 1993) with many rich and diverse activities such as exchanging delegations, organizing research delegations on scientific topics and key state-level programs, inviting experts and scholars from the Central Party School of China to Vietnam for thematic exchanges.
Sharing about the work of the Communist Party of Vietnam in the coming time, General Secretary and President To Lam said that one of the most important tasks is to do a good job of preparing for the 14th Congress - the Congress has been identified as an important milestone, a milestone of a new historical moment, a new era, an era of the rise of the Vietnamese people on the path to socialism.

The Central Party School of China and the Ho Chi Minh National Academy of Politics have just signed a Memorandum of Understanding on cooperation in the new period with very rich and specific terms and contents.
General Secretary and President To Lam suggested that the two schools promote exchanges and dialogue; invite leaders, professors and experts of the schools to visit Vietnam to strengthen working relations and promote trust and mutual understanding.
The two schools need to promote the political advantages of the Party channel relationship, enhance theoretical exchanges on Party building and national management, ideological issues, and contribute to advising the Central Committees of the two Parties on important issues in protecting the ideological foundation, fighting against "self-evolution", "self-transformation", and preventing and combating plots of "peaceful evolution" and "color revolution".
The two sides need to expand the exchange of experiences in training, fostering cadres, and theoretical research.
Currently, Vietnam has a need to improve the capacity of cadres and party members, especially leaders and managers. It is recommended that the Central Party School of China continue to support cadre training for Vietnam in a flexible manner.
