About "Three strategic breakthroughs"

(Baonghean) - Looking back at the late 70s of the 20th century, after the 4th Party Congress, from the Central level to the Party cells, from State agencies, state farms, enterprises, schools, hospitals... to communes, wards, villages, hamlets, all said: "Conduct 3 revolutions simultaneously... in which the scientific and technological revolution is the key". The only thing is that to carry out 3 revolutions simultaneously at a specific level, a specific agency, unit, a specific industry, a specific locality, what must be done and how to do it is not clear.

Currently, we are organizing to thoroughly grasp and from there organize to implement the Resolution of the 11th Party Congress, there is also a number "Three": Three breakthroughs. Everyone is talking, from top to bottom, every industry keeps talking: "Three breakthroughs". But what to do and how to do it to break through those three stages is not determined, and if it is not determined and clarified, then of course it is not known what to do, not known how to break through. I think, to know, understand and grasp why it is necessary to determine the breakthrough stages, the content, meaning, effects of each breakthrough stage, the dialectical relationship between them... is not difficult. The difficulty lies in the fact that it is also implemented but at a different Central level, a different provincial level...; at a state management agency different from an administrative agency, even more different from an enterprise... and especially very different from a commune or ward level. Knowing what to do and how to "break through" the three stages is difficult, but it is essential that each organization, each Party committee, government, Front, and mass organization must do it. Only then can the Resolution be brought into life.

From the above, I would like to suggest the following:

1. To implement the three breakthroughs, the Central level (Government, Government agencies) has the most decisive role. At the first session of the 13th National Assembly, Prime Minister Nguyen Tan Dung made an extremely important speech: "Implementing well the three strategic breakthroughs set forth by the 11th National Party Congress is the key task of the Government for the 2011-2016 term". The speech clearly pointed out, albeit only at a qualitative level, what the Government must do in each breakthrough. In the future, certainly the central ministries and functional branches will quantify these tasks to implement and guide the implementation for the whole country and the whole society. All levels, sectors, political and social organizations will base on this to continue to specify and quantify for their own levels, sectors, and organizations.

2. At the provincial level, the level that has the authority to make decisions, policies, and solutions at the "large" level needs to proactively and creatively plan what needs to be done in our province with each breakthrough step, meeting the urgent requirements of the province's socio-economic development. To do this, first of all, it is necessary to quickly grasp the decisions, policies, and strategies of the Central Government. On the other hand, it is necessary to conduct a review (through organizing an investigation) to detect "barriers" and propose appropriate solutions. The Provincial People's Committee should promptly assign the relevant departments and branches to develop each project, not stopping at a general action program.

3. In order for the Provincial People's Committee to make breakthrough decisions and policies, provincial-level state management agencies must proactively grasp information from higher-level ministries and branches, grasp local realities to proactively advise and propose specific projects. To do this, provincial-level departments and branches need to have specific quarterly and annual action programs that closely follow the requirements of the Provincial People's Committee's organization and direction.

4. From the district level to the commune and ward levels, these are two levels that do not have the right to decide but play a very decisive role in organizing the implementation of work to "breakthrough" when there is a decision from the Government and the Provincial People's Committee. However, we should not passively "wait" for the above but should proactively present to the province and the Government the issues that need to be resolved locally. In particular, it is necessary to organize well the dissemination and propaganda work among the people to create high consensus in society when organizing the implementation of the above policies and guidelines.
