(VOVworld) – Many National Assembly deputies have said they expect Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc will fulfill the tasks assigned to him by the Party, state, and people. They said the government should focus on reducing public spending, mobilizing resources for economic growth, and improving the competence of state officials.

Pham Tat Thang, a deputy for Vinh Long province, said: “Mr. Phuc has been involved in traffic safety and the prevention of smuggling, fraud, and corruption. I believe he will build on his achievements and fulfill the tasks of a government leader.”

Tran Van Ban, a deputy for Binh Dinh province, said Prime Minister Phuc will have to deal with high public debt, the protection of national sovereignty, and anti-corruption during his term: “We hope the Prime Minister will resolve issues such as anti-corruption and the protection of national sovereignty. We believe he will help Vietnam step up its international integration and devise measures to boost national growth.”
