Party Leadership & Governance Rollout: General Secretary and State President To Lam urged the whole political system to turn the 14th Party Central Committee’s third plenum decisions into practical, accountable action programmes, stressing unified understanding and implementation across ministries, sectors and localities. National Security Shift: The plenum endorsed a National Security Strategy that moves from reacting to risks to preventing them early, broadening security to development goals and protecting sovereignty, people’s security, and critical resources and infrastructure. Anti-Corruption Oversight: To Lam reviewed the Government Inspectorate’s Party Committee work, saying inspection reforms should shift from merely detecting violations to improving institutions and strengthening governance. Vietnam–Lao Party Cooperation: To Lam received the Lao Party Organisation Commission chief, calling for deeper exchanges and continued implementation of the 2026–2031 cooperation agreement. Cambodia Ties: Vietnam’s leaders met Cambodian NA President Samdech Khuon Sudary, reaffirming political trust and pushing legislative and policy cooperation. Vietnam–India Connectivity: A May 2026 state visit framework highlights aviation, education and city-to-city cooperation (Ho Chi Minh City–Mumbai) as practical drivers of the upgraded partnership. Business & Global Expansion: Vingroup plans nearly two dozen projects across at least 15 countries as Vietnam’s home market cools and VinFast losses push overseas funding needs. Humanitarian Resilience: To Lam, now Honorary President of the Vietnam Red Cross Society, called to move from emergency relief toward community resilience with transparency and modernisation.
