In his concluding remarks, General Secretary Lam said that resolutely and persistently preventing and repelling corruption, waste, and negative phenomena is a consistent and overarching policy of the Party and the State. He stressed the need to handle violations strictly, humanely and persuasively, with no off-limits zones or exceptions, while tightening control over key, sensitive and emerging areas prone to corruption, wastefulness and negative phenomena.
Anti-corruption efforts must go hand in hand with performing socio-economic development tasks, including maintaining double-digit economic growth in the years ahead, according to the General Secretary.
