Prior to the 4^th meeting of the 14^th National Assembly on Monday, voters said it’s important to strictly implement the resolution of the 6^th session of the 12^th Party Central Committee to continuously reform the political apparatus. Nguyen Xuan Son, a voter in Vung Tau city, suggested raising salary for state employees.

Nguyen Viet Hung, a voter in Ho Chi Minh City, agreed to downsize the number of state employees to ensure their effectiveness. “The state apparatus remains cumbersome. It’s necessary to reduce the staff while improving the quality and enhancing oversight and auditing. Party organizations have to strengthen monitoring and oversight.”

The voters praised the state’s care for improving people’s health.
