Border boarding schools to deepen Vietnam's ties with neighbouring countries:

The People's Security Force needs to unify its perception, promote its crucial, core, and frontline role in advising and organising the implementation of the National Security Strategy in the new situation, urgently innovate working methods, actively apply scientific and technological advances, and adjust plans and strategies to ensure proactive security in all situations.

Venezuelan officials expressed profound gratitude for Vietnam's timely assistance and selfless solidarity, affirming that the support will always be remembered by the Venezuelan people.

The dispatch highlighted that the work has gained significant momentum following the launch of the nationwide 500-day campaign to accelerate the search for, recovery and identification of martyrs’ remains.

At a meeting with Martin Briens, Secretary-General of the French Ministry for Europe and Foreign Affairs, in Hanoi on July 8, Foreign Minister Le Hoai Trung highlighted the positive developments in bilateral ties since the two countries elevated their relationship. He noted that Vietnam–France cooperation has generated tangible benefits for both peoples while contributing to peace, stability, dialogue, and cooperation in the world.

General Secretary of the Communist Party of Vietnam (CPV) Central Committee and State President To Lam cabled his condolences to General Secretary of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee and President of China Xi Jinping following recent severe rains, flooding, tornadoes and landslides that have caused significant loss of life and property in several localities in China.

The top leader stressed that rapid growth must go hand in hand with sustainability, better governance and improved quality of life.

In response to the country’s development requirements in the new era, the campaign against the “internal enemies” remains resolute, with no forbidden zones and no exceptions. However, its objective has evolved beyond addressing misconduct to building a national governance system founded on integrity, transparency and modernity.

NA Chairman Tran Thanh Man praised the increasingly close cooperation between the Supreme People’s Procuracy of Vietnam and the Attorney General’s Chambers of Malaysia in sharing professional experience, upholding justice and protecting citizens’ rights, saying such coordination has contributed to improving crime prevention and combating efforts, ensuring security and promoting socio-economic development in both countries.

The resolution sets out a vision of enabling Vietnam's "heartbeat to resonate with that of the world, breathe in step with the spirit of the times, contribute to peace shaping, foster prosperity, and build a stronger and higher international standing for the country and nation.”

The launch of the search and recovery operation for martyrs’ remains at Le Thi Rieng Park in Ho Chi Minh City on July 6 is part of the nationwide 500-day campaign launched in April in Quang Tri province ahead of the 80th anniversary of Invalids and Martyrs Day (July 27, 1947–2027), underscoring Vietnam’s determination to better care for people with meritorious service and fulfil the long-standing aspirations of martyrs’ families nationwide.

The Standing Board approved the formation of the specialised research unit, describing it as a necessary step to implement the orientations of the Politburo and the Party Central Committee’s Secretariat while strengthening the NA Party Committee's research and advisory capacity.

Technical operations should become a "steel wall" and an "intellectual pillar" of the People's Public Security Force, helping safeguard Vietnam's breakthroughs in science and technology, innovation and national digital transformation, said Party General Secretary and State President To Lam.

Thorough preparations will not only ensure the successful organisation of APEC 2027 events but also help showcase Vietnam as a friendly, peaceful and stable destination while promoting the cultural features and tourist attractions of Phu Quoc and An Giang to the international community.

During the conference, officials are set to discuss the socio-economic situation in June and the second quarter of 2026; the allocation and disbursement of public investment capital; the implementation of the national target programmes; and the implementation of state budget-related tasks in the first six months.

Reaffirming Vietnam’s consistent position of condemning terrorism in all forms, manifestations and motivations, Minister Counsellor Nguyen Hai Luu, Deputy Permanent Representative of Vietnam to the UN, called on UN member states to strengthen cooperation in investigating, prosecuting and bringing to trial individuals and organizations responsible for planning, carrying out or financing terrorist acts, including those linked to terrorist incidents in Vietnam in recent years.

Prime Minister Le Minh Hung said there remains ample room to expand bilateral cooperation, stressing JBIC's important role in mobilising financial resources and advancing strategic infrastructure projects to support Vietnam's long-term development goals, particularly its green transition.

Prime Minister Le Minh Hung noted that the military has demonstrated strong strategic awareness and responsiveness, accurately assessed developments, and effectively advised the Party and State on military and defence matters. These efforts have enabled the flexible and effective handling of emerging situations, maintained a proactive posture, prevented surprises and firmly safeguarded national sovereignty and territorial integrity.

Ho Chi Minh City has every reason to take pride in its remarkable achievements over the past half-century. From a war-ravaged urban centre facing enormous post-war difficulties, it gradually restored production, stabilised people's livelihoods, consolidated the achievements of the revolution, built an effective system of governance, and safeguarded national defence and security, thereby laying a solid foundation for long-term development.

Top leader To Lam stressed that while the 14th National Party Congress’s Resolution serves as the strategic blueprint for the country's next growth stage, Resolution 57 is one of the key engines for turning that blueprint into reality.

After 18 months of implementing Resolution No. 57, ministries, sectors and localities have adopted innovative and effective approaches that have generated positive momentum, while winning broad support from businesses, the scientific community and the public for policies on science, technology, innovation and digital transformation.
