The speech of VGCL President Nguyen Dinh Khang on the proposal to "promulgate a strategy to build the working class associated with the socio-economic development strategy" touched on one of the consistent ideologies of the 14th Party Congress document: Developing people, especially the labor force, to become the center, subject and driving force of development.
One of the core points mentioned in the draft documents of the 14th Congress is the requirement to build a modern and strong Vietnamese working class, closely linked to the development of science and technology, innovation and international integration.
The pioneering nature of the working class is first and foremost reflected in the ability to adapt and lead change. Today's workers must gradually become intellectual workers, capable of operating, improving, and even creating technology.
The draft Document of the 14th Party Congress clearly defines the goal of building an independent and self-reliant economy associated with deep international integration, taking science - technology and innovation as the main driving force. If there is no class of workers with sufficient qualifications, skills and bravery, then the goals of industrialization, modernization, "Make in Vietnam" or green economy, digital economy will hardly become reality.
The speech of the President of the Vietnam General Confederation of Labour emphasized the improvement of education, expertise, and professional skills associated with industrial style and labor discipline. This is the concretization of the requirement to build Vietnamese workers in the new era set out by the 14th Congress.
Building a modern working class cannot be separated from promoting the role of the Trade Union organization in representing and protecting rights, and at the same time accompanying workers to improve capacity and arouse the spirit of initiative and innovation. This is an important meeting point between the development thinking of the Party and the State and the reality of workers' lives in the new era.
The country is entering a new stage of development, requiring a new growth model. Looking at the draft documents of the 14th Congress and the speech of VGCL President Nguyen Dinh Khang, it can be affirmed: The working class and laborers continue to be the pioneering force of the country's development.
The pioneering spirit does not stop at sacrifice and dedication, but also the ability to master knowledge, technology and constant creativity. The working class is placed right in the center of the development strategy, so the aspiration for a powerful and prosperous Vietnam with a solid foundation will soon become a reality.
