Vietnam is undergoing significant administrative reforms aimed at modernizing the state and enhancing economic growth under the leadership of new party chief To Lam. Following the death of Nguyen Phu Trong, Lam emphasized the need for painful reforms, equating them to taking bitter medicine. The government plans to cut around 100,000 public sector jobs, reorganizing state ministries and halving the number of provinces. This two-tier governance model aims to streamline operations and refocus resources on economic growth, aspiring to achieve high-income status by 2045.
This 'revolution' is expected to eliminate around 100,000 public sector jobs—roughly 15% of the one-party communist state's entire bureaucracy.
Officials say the cuts will make the state more agile and redirect public resources toward economic growth.
After nearly four decades, Vietnam's original Doi Moi reforms have run their course; growth is slowing, productivity issues are emerging.
If we want to have a healthy body, sometimes we must take bitter medicine and endure pain to remove tumors.
