Nguyen Xuan Phuc - Deputy Prime Minister
Together with other cabinet members, we promise to actively listen to the public during our term. This is very important in implementing the objectives and measures adopted at the 11th National Party Congress in January.
Over the next five years, the new Government will focus its efforts on handling the three key areas of the 10-year socio-economic development strategy 2011-20 - i.e. institution, human resources development and infrastructure development.
We're resolved to strengthen the fight against corruption, embezzlement and other negative phenomena. I hope in this fight we'll have strong support from the whole political system.
Vu Van Ninh - Deputy Prime Minister
Attracting various resources for socio-economic development is an important factor for the country to advance.
Of course, public resources will act as a catalyst in orienting the nation's development path. Yet it is important to select the right areas, the right projects to invest in.
In addition, our tax policy is also very important. Taxes should promote production, not burden enterprises or individuals.
That's why we must focus our efforts on ensuring tax collection, making it fair for both individuals and enterprises.
I'm confident that if our tax policy is well implemented, our country will have more money for development, and this will help enterprises improve production. As a result, our country will have a strong and sustainable revenue.
Dinh La Thang – Minister of Transport
Building transport infrastructure is my top priority in my five- year term, followed by reducing traffic accidents and congestion.
In order to put these two priorities into reality, in my opinion, we must pool our efforts to mobilise resources – both in the modality and investment forms. Parallel with that we have to improve project implementation procedures. I'm convinced that if we put all this criteria in place, we'll win this battle.
However, in the transport sector, public transport should be given the top priority – particularly quality of service.
Second is to limit the use of individual transportation.
And third is to raise awareness and responsibility among road users and the efficiency of relevant government management agencies.
As I have just mentioned, it is imperative that we mobilise resources from all economic sectors including Vietnamese and foreign enterprises.
I don't think that the State budget alone can solve the problem.
As we all know, in the context of the financial crisis and economic sluggishness, all enterprises are faced with difficulties, including those in the transport sector, particularly during the implementation of Government Resolution No 11 on the reduction of public investment and the application of tight monetary policy.
In my capacity as Minister of Transport, I will work closely with my deputies and others to restructure transport enterprises and find ways to increase their capital ownership so that they will be in a better position to compete and participate in transport infrastructure projects.
Vuong Dinh Hue – Minister of Finance
The global economy is faced with many difficulties and challenges, and Viet Nam is no exception, but around that dark cloud, I see a silver lining.
For Viet Nam, I think that in the next five years our national financial policy should focus on mobilising all available resources for socio-economic development and national defence and security.
On the other hand, we must use these resources efficiently and properly, particularly public spending. This is a key factor to ensure the successful implementation of the country's current socio-economic five-year plan and the 10-year socio-economic development strategy.
We all know that when the country's economy is in a state of sluggishness or crisis, the first measure the government has to resort to is to apply a rational monetary policy coupled by a flexible financial policy.
The Government's proposal to give tax exemptions or reductions, currently pending approval from the National Assembly, is one of the measures to help enterprises and individuals overcome these difficulties.
In my new position as the Minister of Finance I pledge to do my best to make our national financial system work in a sustainable and transparent manner.
Vu Duc Dam – Minister, Chairman of the Government Office
One of the assignments given to the government's office is to encourage all line ministries, sectors and localities to implement the country's law and Government's missions.
Of course, during the implementation, a very important tool – the mass media, will help turn the country's legal documents, Party and Government policies and guidelines into a reality.
In my new position, I promise to further speed up the Government's administrative reform which I was deeply involved in before so that we can contribute to resolving bottle necks in production development.
I hope we'll continue to receive support from enterprises and citizens.
