2. Limitations, weaknesses

Some laws, mechanisms, policies, regulations, and administrative procedures are still contradictory, overlapping, and unsynchronized, hindering development. Economic growth is still below potential, not reaching the set target. Productivity, quality, efficiency and competitiveness of the economy are still low; the average 5-year labor productivity growth rate reached 5.3%, lower than the set target, and the capital utilization coefficient (ICOR) is still high (6.4).

Science, technology and innovation have not become the main driving force for industrialization, modernization and development of the country. Infrastructure is not synchronized, still weak, and lacks infrastructure. The clearing, mobilization and allocation of development resources are still limited.

Environmental pollution has not been effectively controlled, and some aspects are even more serious, especially the environment in large cities, industrial parks, industrial clusters and craft villages. The capacity of functional agencies in responding to and minimizing the harmful effects of natural disasters and climate change has not met the requirements. The management and use of resources, minerals, especially land and water sources, is not highly effective.

Opportunities to access and the level of enjoyment of cultural development achievements are still disparate between regions, regions, and people.

The implementation of fundamental and comprehensive renovation of education and training is not synchronized, lacks systemicity, and still has many inadequacies. The implementation of socialization in education and training shows signs of deviation. The quality of education and training, especially education on qualities, personality, and profession, and higher education, is slow to improve. Education and training in remote, isolated, and ethnic minority areas still face many difficulties; regimes and policies for teachers are still inadequate.

Mechanisms and policies for science, technology and innovation development still have some bottlenecks and obstacles. Mechanisms, policies, investment resources, financial management in science and technology and preferential treatment for intellectuals are not suitable. The science and technology market is slow to develop. Some strategic and spearhead science and technology industries are still developing slowly. Enterprises have not really played the role of the center of the national innovation system.

Management of social order and safety still has shortcomings. Social security, human security, and social welfare have not been firmly ensured. The situation of counterfeit and poor quality goods continues to be complicated. Population and development policies have not kept up with practical requirements. The gap between rich and poor tends to increase. Some issues of digital society are slowly identified and lack timely handling mechanisms. Transportation infrastructure, electricity, and water in remote and isolated areas, and ethnic minority areas are still difficult. Medical services are still limited, especially grassroots healthcare and preventive medicine.

The work of organizing the implementation of Party resolutions, policies and laws of the State has many innovations and good practices, but has not kept up with the requirements of breakthrough development of the country. The leadership role of some Party committees at all levels is still limited. Political and ideological education work is sometimes, in some places, not close to reality, lacking depth. Cadre work still has some shortcomings, especially cadre evaluation; power control in cadre work is still limited. Some organizations, agencies, and units at the commune level after arrangement, operating according to new functions, tasks, and authority in the early stages still face difficulties and confusion, especially administrative agencies and mass organizations. The work of building Party organizations, managing and developing Party members still has some shortcomings, notably remote and isolated areas, ethnic minority and religious areas and non-state areas. A part of cadres and party members, including high-ranking cadres, lack self-cultivation and training, are not exemplary, show signs of shirking, avoidance, do not dare to do, do not dare to innovate and create, fade ideals, decline in political ideology, morality, lifestyle, violate party discipline, violate things that party members are not allowed to do, violate the law.

The receipt and resolution of petitions from people and businesses at some ministries, branches, and local authorities is still slow and not satisfactory, causing prolonged frustration.

The activities of supervision, social criticism, and protection of people's rights of the Fatherland Front and socio-political organizations are still confused and of low quality. The people's right to mastery has not been fully institutionalized, and sometimes, in some places, it is still violated.

Mechanisms, policies, and laws on national defense and security are not yet complete. Ensuring national defense and security associated with socio-economic development in some fields and localities has not been given due attention. Investment in building defense areas in some localities is not commensurate with socio-economic development. Grassroots security assurance work still has loopholes, still allows incidents to occur causing insecurity and disorder; still loses vigilance in the face of conspiracies and sabotage activities of hostile forces; the work of fighting and ensuring network safety and security still faces many difficulties and challenges.

The implementation and organization of international commitments and agreements that have been signed is slow. The combination of foreign affairs, integration with socio-economic development, defense, and security still has limitations.

The above limitations and weaknesses have objective causes due to: The international context changes very quickly, many difficulties and challenges, complex developments, beyond forecasts; the heavy impact of the Covid-19 pandemic, natural disasters and climate change; the drastic sabotage of hostile and reactionary forces... However, subjective causes are still the main ones. That is due to limited awareness, leadership, management, and administration capacity of some Party committees, authorities, and leaders of some agencies, organizations, and heads; many weaknesses and inadequacies that have accumulated and accumulated from before have not been thoroughly addressed, causing prolonged consequences. The institutional system has not developed synchronously, becoming a "bottleneck of the bottleneck". A part of officials is not truly on par with their tasks. Situation forecasting capacity, thinking and strategic vision are still limited; "term thinking", "group interests" have not been thoroughly overcome; the "supervisory" role of officials and employees has not been effectively promoted.

II- VIEWPOINTS AND GOALS FOR BUILDING AND DEVELOPING THE COUNTRY IN THE NEW PERIOD

1. Forecast of the world and domestic situation

World context

The world situation is changing rapidly and unprecedentedly in a multi-polar, multi-center, multi-tiered, fragmented and strongly delineated direction. Peace, cooperation, and development are still major trends, but facing many new challenges. Major countries and power centers continue to adjust strategies, both competing and cooperating, compromising, but competition will become increasingly fierce. Conflicts, wars, and high-tech arms races take place in many areas, more dangerous, not excluding the risk of major wars.

Globalization and economic integration are still progressing, despite facing many new difficulties and major challenges; protectionism, imposed tariff policies, the risk of trade war goes hand in hand with the trend of adjusting the global production and supply chains. International law and multilateral institutions continue to be important methods in preventing and resolving global issues, peace, disputes, and conflicts, but are facing many major obstacles. Global challenges continue to adversely impact the security and development of all countries, including Vietnam.

The Fourth Industrial Revolution continues to develop strongly and deeply impact all fields. New production forces, especially high technology and artificial intelligence, are developing unprecedentedly. The trend of strategic autonomy, economic competition, promoting green transformation, digital transformation, energy transformation, structural transformation and quality of human resources... is increasingly being concerned and promoted by countries.

The Asia-Pacific and Indian Ocean regions continue to be dynamic development centers, but also key strategic competition areas between major countries. Territorial, maritime, and island sovereignty disputes, including the East Sea, continue to be complex, posing a risk of conflict. ASEAN continues to strengthen cooperation and linkages, implement the Community Vision 2045, and strive to affirm its central role in the regional structure, but is facing many new challenges both internally and externally.

Domestic context

After 40 years of renovation, the country's structure, potential, position and international prestige have been elevated, which is an important foundation for the country to rise in the new era. The role, content, and methods of leadership and rule of the Party are increasingly being innovated and enhanced; the ideological and theoretical foundation has been supplemented and comprehensively developed. The fight against corruption, wastefulness, and negativity continues to be promoted and achieves many outstanding results.

However, in the next 5 years, our country will face many difficulties and challenges, with some aspects being harsher and heavier than the previous period. Socio-economic development is not sustainable. The four dangers pointed out by the Party have been gradually overcome, but some aspects are still developing complicatedly. The overwhelming risk is the risk of lagging behind, especially in technology and falling into the middle-income trap. Development thinking has not kept up with world development trends, policy responses are not timely, slow to adjust and synchronously complete development institutions, not meeting the requirements of rapid and sustainable development of the country in the new period. Population aging is happening faster than forecast. Climate change, natural disasters, and epidemics are becoming increasingly severe. Corruption, wastefulness, and negativity in some fields are still developing complicatedly and seriously. Hostile and reactionary forces continue to carry out many tricks and plots to oppose our Party, State and regime.
