ASEAN leaders engage with parliament, business, youth representatives
At the sessions, PM Chinh underlined the need to strengthen ASEAN unity, describing it as an objective requirement, a strategic choice and a top priority. He highlighted the importance of enhancing ASEAN's adaptability in the face of major global and societal issues, such as war and peace, climate change, resource depletion, and population aging.
In his address to AIPA representatives, the Vietnamese PM called for specific directions and drastic actions to build a connected, self-reliant, sustainable, and inclusive ASEAN Community.
He urged parliaments and governments to collaborate in promoting new growth engines, such as the digital economy, sharing economy, circular economy, and knowledge economy, and emerging sectors like artificial intelligence, cloud computing, and the Internet of Things.
The PM urged member parliaments to stay united and support each other in institution building, and exercise supreme oversight over agencies, including governments, thereby enabling them to contribute more to development goals and self-reliance of each nation.
During the dialogue with ASEAN-BAC representatives, PM Chinh called on the council to play a more active role in settling major issues in the region, saying businesses should carry forward their pioneering role and innovation, give advice to governments on institution challenges, infrastructure, and human resources, contributing to building a favourable business environment and opening up opportunities for companies to positively impact the region and inpidual countries.
Underscoring the importance of business connectivity, he advocated for pooling resources through public-private partnerships, technology transfer, smart governance connection, and support for workforce training.
He highlighted enterprises' role in ensuring social welfare and achieving the goal of leaving no one behind, and affirmed that the Vietnamese Government will not pursue economic growth at the expense of social equality and environment.
At the dialogue with ASEAN youth, Vietnam proposed three priorities for adapting to new global trends, such as digital transformation and green transition, for seeking solutions to social issues such as climate change, population aging, and environmental pollution, and for raising innovative ideas aimed at building the future ASEAN Community./.
