RESOLUTION OF THE POLITBURO OF VIETNAM

TASKS AND ORIENTATIONS TO DEVELOPMENT OF HO CHI MINH CITY BY 2030, WITH VISIONS TOWARDS 2045

I- SITUATION

After 10 years of implementation of Resolution No. 16-NQ/TW of the 11^th Politburo, the Communist Party units, government and people of Ho Chi Minh City have made great efforts to achieve important achievements in various sectors.  Ho Chi Minh city is the driving force and the locomotive with a leading role as a major center for economy, finance, trade, culture, science - technology, innovation, education - training of the southern key economic region and the whole country, and is an important gateway which connects with the region and the world. The economic structure continues to shift in a positive manner in association with the renewal of the growth model, and gradually develop in-depth according to the application of science - technology and innovation. Economic scale in 2020 increased by 2.7 times in comparison with economic scale in 2010 and GRDP per capita has doubled. Education - training, people's health care, cultural and social development have achieved many positive results. The material and spiritual life of the people has been steadily improved. External relations and international cooperation have been strengthened and expanded; national defense, security, social order and safety have been maintained. Construction and rectification of the Communist Party and political system have achieved good results, thereby creating positive changes. The leadership of the Communist Party, management and administration of the government and the operation of the Vietnam Fatherland Front and socio-political organizations have been steadily improved; the great national unity bloc has been strengthened. Over the past time, achievements in development of Ho Chi Minh City have made important contributions to the general achievements of Vietnam, thereby affirming the City's position and particularly important role in national construction and defense.

However, the City's advantages and potential have not been effectively exploited.  The superiority, dynamism, creativity, leading role and driving force for the region and the whole country have tendency to decline, the economic growth is slow, and international competitiveness is still low. The limitations, shortcomings and obstacles have not been completely overcome while many new challenges and difficulties arise, thereby obstructing the development of the City. Development of socio-economic infrastructure is slow and not synchronous; there are limitations and weaknesses in urban planning and management, and land use; the traffic is overloaded and congested; storm surge, inundation and environmental pollution have not been controlled; housing, hospitals, schools and social welfare systems have not met the demands of the people. The political security and social order and safety still have potential instabilities. Construction, rectification of the Communist Party and political system, and state management still have limitations and weaknesses.

The above limitations and weaknesses are due to ineffective leadership, direction and organization of implementation of the Resolution of some committees, government and some officials and members of the Communist Party of the City; low creativity, dynamism, responsibility for common benefits; lack of audacity and determination, and active cooperation with central authorities in organization of implementation of the Politburo's Resolutions and Conclusions and the National Assembly's Resolution on the development of the City. Some central committees, ministries and central authorities have not paid attention to and promptly provided support to the City. As a result, some policies have been implemented in a slow and incomplete manner and many difficulties and obstacles have been removed and overcome in an ineffective manner.
