Agreeing with the draft documents and summary of the proposal, General Secretary and Vice President of the Vietnam Fatherland Front Central Committee Nguyen Thi Thu Ha pointed out to several issues that the Party Central Committee should pay more attention to handling in the time ahead, including poverty, rich-poor gap, clean water, and illegal migration.
Activities that trigger riots have affected the relations between ethnic groups, she said, stressing if the issue is not satisfactorily resolved, it will become a loophole for reactionary forces to destroy the great national unity.
The committee also said that it is necessary to study the role of the alliance between the working class, farmers and intellectuals in promoting the great national unity, given the context that the development of the socialist-oriented market economy is creating intertwining ties among social classes.

Specific study should be carried out to specify the contents and criteria to promote the essence of the Party’s working class, he said, adding the trade union sees it important to protect and build the Party.
Meanwhile, Chairman of the Vietnam Farmers’ Union Central Committee Luong Quoc Doan said that with mixture of different classes, rural areas have seen stratification in incomes, livelihoods and development opportunities, thus it is a must to have a study on farmers during the development of the socialist-oriented market economy.
