Speaking at a conference in Hanoi on January 5, head of the commission Vo Van Thuong urged relevant units to strengthen coordination and reform the working style to promote communication activities in all areas.
He described 2018 as an important year to implement tasks underlined at the 12th National Party Congress, noting that the dissemination work must be based on reality to ensure peace, security and stability.
The commission needs to strictly follow the direction of the Politburo and the Secretariat of the CPV Central Committee while strengthening coordination with ministries and departments from the central to local levels to complete projects summarising the Party’s resolutions, directives, conclusions and decisions, Thuong said.
In 2017, the commission made active contributions to increasing public awareness of the Party resolutions.
According to permanent deputy head of the commission Vo Van Phuong, the commission will enhance leadership and orientation of press, culture, and art activities in 2018 to encourage people from all walks of life to implement well political tasks of developing economy, culture, society, defense, security, and external affairs along with building the Party and political system.
It will step up the internal prevention of corruption, wastefulness, and “self-evolution” and “self-transformation” behaviours as well as fight against distorted information and allegations of hostile forces that aim to harm the Party and State, he said.
The commission will inspect the implementation of the Party’s resolutions and directives on education, training, science, technology, environment, health care, and social affairs.
It will work with the Ministry of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs to build a project reforming salary policy and social insurance for revolutionary contributors.
The commission will increase dissemination of external information on seas, islands, border demarcation and landmark planting, national sovereignty and territorial integrity.
