"To Lam emphasized that maintaining peace and stability is essential for fast and sustainable growth, stating, 'We aim to improve people's livelihoods so all can share the benefits of development.'"
"The election of To Lam signifies a shift in Vietnam's political structure, resembling China's model under Xi Jinping, which may lead to greater authoritarianism and quicker decision-making."
"To Lam described his dual role as a 'huge honor' and a 'sacred and noble duty,' reflecting the significance of his new position in Vietnam's governance."
"In less than two years, To Lam has transformed Vietnam through aggressive reforms, including the scrapping of eight ministries and the initiation of massive infrastructure projects."
To Lam was unanimously elected as Vietnam's president, marking a significant shift in the political structure by consolidating the roles of party secretary and state president. His main focus is on maintaining peace and stability to foster sustainable growth and improve livelihoods. Analysts suggest this consolidation may lead to increased authoritarianism but also faster decision-making. To Lam has initiated rapid reforms, combining provinces, reducing bureaucracy, and proposing a new growth model aimed at achieving double-digit annual growth.
