He made the call
in his speech at the closing of the two-day session in Hanoi, saying that the
year 2019 plays an important role in successfully realising the resolution
adopted by the 12th National Party Congress, the 2016-2020 socio-economic
development plan, and preparing for the 13th National Party Congress.
The Party chief affirmed the top importance of personnel
work, saying that it must be conducted cautiously, regularly and effectively to
build a contingent of qualified and prestigious personnel.
After thoroughly considering reports and documents relating
to personnel planning, participants cast secret votes on candidates planned for
the CPV Central Committee for the 2021-2026 tenure. Based on the result,
agencies concerned will review it before submitting to the Politburo for
consideration.
The committee also gave nod to the Politburo’s report on
casting confidence votes on Politburo and Secretariat members.
Party leader Trong said each Politburo and Secretariat member
should consider it a good chance to review themselves, tap strengths and fix
shortcomings to accomplish assigned tasks, deserving trust and hope of the
CPVCC, the entire Party and people.
Participants agreed with a report reviewing the Politburo and
Secretariat’s leadership and directions in 2018, affirming that the Politburo
and Secretariat are united collectives that stay consistent with Party goals
and ideology, Marxism and Leninism, and Ho Chi Minh ideology. The two are also
resolute to safeguard the Party, regime, national independence and sovereignty,
they added.
They lauded the Politburo and Secretariat for conducting
criticism and self-criticism and straightforwardly admitting existing
shortcomings.
The committee asked the Politburo and Secretariat to acquire
its feedback, thereby taking drastic and concerted measures to fulfill tasks
for the coming years, especially the nine key tasks for 2019.
It also decided to impose a disciplinary measure against Tat
Thanh Cang by relieving him from the post of member of the 12th CPV Central
Committee, permanent Vice Secretary of the Ho Chi Minh City Party Committee,
member of the Standing Board of the municipal Party Committee for the 2015-2020
tenure for his very serious shortcomings and wrongdoings.
Within nearly three years since the start of the CPV’s 12th
tenure, a record number of over 60 officials under the management of the CPV
Central Committee have been disciplined, including four of its incumbent
members and three of them have been expelled from the body.
On the occasion, the Party chief urged all the Party
officials and members to avoid making the mistakes that cause loss to the
Party, country and people, saying that every of them must bear in mind that the
interests of the country, people and Party must be placed above all.
He also called for preventing and determinedly fighting
wrongful allegations by hostile forces that incite and sow internal
division.
