Politburo member and National Assembly Chairman Vuong Dinh Hue made this request while attending a working session with the Standing Board of the municipal Party Committee on March 20.
The top legislator spoke highly of the city’s efforts in COVID-19 pandemic containment and socio-economic recovery. Thanks to supporting mechanisms and policies, Ho Chi Minh City’s state budget collection exceeded 381 trillion VND (16.66 billion USD) last year and its investment environment has been improved significantly, despite pandemic impacts, he said, adding that remarkable outcomes have also been seen in Party building and rectification, and social welfare.

Ho Chi Minh City should soon set out a scenario to bring to life the resolution on financial and monetary policies, in support of the socio-economic recovery and development programme, he added.
The NA Chairman also asked the city to focus on personnel development, especially high-quality workforces, and attract talents at home and abroad, thus meeting requirements of rapid, sustainable development and international integration; as well as work harder to reform administrative procedures and improve its competitiveness.
NA Chairman Hue expressed his hope that the southern economic hub will uphold the spirit of patriotism, national pride and self-reliance, to become a locomotive and model in reform and development.
