Rich-Poor Polarisation in Vietnam and Its Impacts on Vietnamese Society

Tóm tắt

After 30 years of the comprehensive Đổi mới, or Renovation, policy, Vietnam has reaped important achievements in the economic, political, military, diplomatic, cultural and social aspects. The great achievements affirm the Party's correct and creative policy of reform. The national development path is consistent with the reality of Vietnam and the trend of history. Nevertheless, the country is still facing many difficulties and challenges. The gap between rich and poor in present-day Vietnam and its impacts have really become special concerns of the entire political system and society. In order to minimise the gap, and to realise social progress and equity, the country must develop the right strategy of socio-economic development, and the practical and specific policy of poverty alleviation, continuing strongly the Đổi mới cause to achieve the goal of "a rich people, strong country, and an equitable, democratic and civilised society". Under the leadership of the Party, given the solidarity of the whole people, the increasingly deeper international integration, the poverty alleviation, the improvement of the people's living standards and the reduction of the gap between the rich and the poor in Vietnam will achieve new successes on the path of comprehensive and sustainable development.
