Addressing the plenary session of the first Congress of the Ho Chi Minh Communist Youth Union of the Government for the 2025–2030 term on December 30, the PM said the current process of national building and development places high demands on the younger generation.

He stressed that Vietnamese youth must maintain strong political mettle and absolute loyalty to the Party; renew their mindset; value intellect, time and decisiveness; dare to think, dare to do and dare to act for national and public interests; think big and act boldly; enhance professional competence; adopt a professional, effective and practical working style; and deepen connectivity and integration.

The PM urged each Youth Union member to push beyond personal limits and strive for new heights, serving as a nucleus of innovation and creativity by proactively proposing initiatives, taking on challenging tasks, and working with passion and dedication.

Emphasising the need to create an enabling environment for young people to express themselves, contribute and grow, he called on the Youth Union to continue effectively implementing three key movements focusing on foreign language learning, information technology and digital transformation, and environmental protection towards a green, clean and beautiful living environment.

He requested Party committees, authorities, agencies and units at all levels to nurture and create favourable conditions for young union members to develop comprehensively, entrust them with responsibilities, provide opportunities for contribution and maturity, and effectively implement the Vietnam Youth Development Strategy for the 2021–2030 period.

The PM expressed his hope that Government youth would develop with confidence, optimise activities, foster empathy and sharing, promote innovation and creativity, and take the lead in work, study and production while enhancing intellectual capacity and social responsibility.
