Running for National Assembly deputy when "having work" to meet people, the possibility of being elected will be very low!

According to Mr. Cao Sy Kiem, candidates for National Assembly deputies who have little contact with the people will have very low confidence votes because to represent the people, they must be close to the people, be close to the people, and understand the people.

The election of National Assembly deputies is a sacred task that both demonstrates the rights of citizens and the responsibility of each voter. To promote the responsibility of each voter before his/her vote in the election, Mr. Cao Sy Kiem, former Governor of the State Bank of Vietnam, said that to promote the rights of voters, voters must first fully participate in the contents, propaganda, campaigns, and conferences introducing candidates to know their abilities and capacities in order to proactively choose and evaluate.

“We should not vote without understanding anything about them or ask someone else to vote for us. This situation is not new, it has been happening for a long time, but we just ignore it. This will make the quality of the representatives that voters choose inaccurate, not representative, directly affecting the rights of voters in the future,” said Mr. Kiem.

Candidates for National Assembly who have little contact with the people will have a very low chance of being elected.

According to Mr. Cao Sy Kiem, the responsibility of voters when voting is decisive to the quality of representatives because voters are the ones who have the right to choose their representatives. If voters choose correctly, that representative will promote and ensure the rights of the people. If voters choose superficially, incorrectly or with poor quality, the aspirations of the people will not be fully reflected, the communication, awareness, and contributions to responsible levels will also not be complete. This will in the long run reduce the quality of activities, reduce the rights and aspirations of voters when they want to express and build a good policy to build a fair, transparent, and open society.

PV:Currently, very little information about candidates reaches the people. Do you think this affects the quality of elections?

Mr. Cao Sy Kiem:In the review of the National Election Council, it was also mentioned that our propaganda has not been quick, widespread, and regular in line with the spirit of the national festival. In particular, the propaganda and mobilization plan as well as the criteria and background of the candidates for the people at the commune and ward levels to know have not received due attention.

However, at the first and second consultative conferences of the Front and the National Election Council recently, this shortcoming was also recognized and those limitations are gradually being overcome.

PV: Another reality is that in previous National Assembly elections, there were candidates who rarely participated in activities in the residential areas where they lived, and even when the National Assembly elections were held, some people only had information about them through short biographies. Sir, can such candidates represent the voice of the people?

Mr. Cao Sy Kiem:I think, for those people, the vote of confidence will be very low because to represent voters, to represent the people, one must be close to the people, close to the people, and grasp the people's situation.

Those who do not work with the people, are not close to the people, and do not know the people well will certainly consider whether that person is worthy of representing them when they go to vote. For such people, even if they receive support from the National Assembly, it will be difficult to contact and reflect the wishes of the voters as well as solve the problems that the voters want.

People "score" the action programs of National Assembly candidates

PV:Currently, preparations for the election are in the final stages. After the 3rd Consultation Conference, candidates for the National Assembly will campaign through voter contact conferences. So, in your opinion, how can self-nominated candidates and nominated candidates be treated equally?

Mr. Cao Si Kiem:I believe that self-nominated candidates and nominated candidates have the right to present their activities, methods and perceptions to voters.

During the election campaign, whoever has a brighter action plan, voters will lean towards that person, support that person and choose that person as their representative, so there is no fairness or unfairness here.

PV:In the previous National Assembly election, there were Central Committee candidates who were nominated but were not elected. Do you have any notes for candidates sent from the Central Committee?

Mr. Cao Sy Kiem:Every time, in the National Assembly elections, there are representatives from the Central Committee who are introduced, but those representatives are not accepted, there may be several reasons.

Firstly, that person's ability to conduct propaganda activities in the election area is not clear and does not make voters believe.

Second, if the area where that person is introduced has more excellent, more qualified candidates with more potential to contribute, then that person will inevitably fail.

In my opinion, the Central Committee's recommended representatives must be those who have the ability to communicate with the locality, the ability to reflect on issues, the ability to contribute to the locality, the ability to receive and reflect voters' opinions in the most accurate way. If the candidate lacks these conditions, then during the election campaign, during the process of contacting voters, and contacting the locality, he/she will not understand the locality, will not have good ideas to contribute to the locality, and will not have a clear program, then even if the Central Committee recommends them, they will not be successful.

PV: The Fatherland Front has just held the 3rd Consultation to establish a list of candidates for the National Assembly at the Central level. What do you think about the candidates that the Central level has introduced to run for the 14th National Assembly?

Mr. Cao Sy Kiem:The candidates for the 14th National Assembly are mostly those who were re-elected in the previous term. These people have experience in working, have been selected many times and their working process is also very good.

For those who are new, newly nominated to replace those who are not qualified or those who are transferred to other positions, they are all capable people. If we compare the qualifications, this batch is higher than the previous batch, and younger than the previous batch.

I hope they can contribute more actively, creatively and take more practical actions to make the activities of the National Assembly better quality.

PV: Thank you sir./.
