"Greater efforts should be made to bring about practical and lasting changes in implementing the "Study and Follow President Ho Chi Minh's Exemplary Morals" campaign," National Assembly Chairman Nguyen Phu Trong told leaders of Hanoi on May 2.
Chairman Trong was speaking at a working session with the Hanoi Municipal Party Committee to review one year of implementing the campaign in Hanoi and 23 other localities.
It was reported at the meeting that the movement, launched one year ago, has had a profound and positive impact on the entire political system, helping raise the awareness of cadres and receiving strong support from Party members and the public.

Chairman Trong asked the campaign organisers in Hanoi to set specific standards for different sectors and areas of work and avoid superficial behaviours.

"Leaders and business managers in Hanoi should be leading this movement," urged the NA leader.

From now until the end of the year, the Hanoi Party Committee will hold contests such as telling moral stories about Ho Chi Minh and open short courses on his ethics for civil servants as well as the public. The committee will focus on Ho Chi Minh Thought about practising thrift and fighting corruption and wastefulness.

The campaign is aimed at enhancing officials' willingness to go forward and contribute more actively to national construction. It is also expected to encourage cultured lifestyles and gradually help ward off social vices by co-ordinating work with political and social organisations more effectively at grassroots level.

A large-scale campaign aimed to remove unethical practices and wrongdoings, especially among State employees, will be launched on a larger scale.
