According to many voters, the participation of workers and farmers in elected bodies not only contributes to diversifying the composition of delegates but also helps the voice from the grassroots level to be fully and more accurately reflected in the process of policy making and promulgation.
This is also an opportunity for workers to directly participate in state management activities, contributing intelligence and practical experience to the development of the locality.
Mr. Nguyen Van Tuan, a worker working at Tang Loong Industrial Park - expressed: "We expect delegates from workers to speak out the truthful voice of workers, especially issues of stable employment, income, working conditions, housing and social security regimes.
Sharing the same expectation, Ms. Giang Thi Sua, a farmer in Ban Xeo commune - shared: "Farmers running for provincial People's Council delegates is very encouraging. People hope that delegates will pay more attention to agricultural production, support seeds, techniques, product output and invest in transportation, electricity, and water infrastructure to improve the lives of the highlands.
Voters expect that, if elected, delegates who are workers and farmers will promote their representative role, regularly contact and listen to people's opinions, truthfully reflect the thoughts and legitimate aspirations of voters to the People's Council and functional agencies, contributing to building a government close to the people and for the people.
