He said that the development orientation Vietnam has pursued since the 13th National Party Congress - taking science, technology, innovation, and digital transformation as key driving forces - is well aligned with global trends and closely matched to Vietnam’s situation.

He expressed confidence that the upcoming Congress will be a landmark event, shaping Vietnam’s development strategy for years to come, with positive spillover effects domestically, across the region, and beyond.
