The activities are of paramount importance to improve the awareness and the unanimity in spirit and action within the Party and to create high consensus in the public.
They are also meant to encourage the entire Party, people and army to maximise the patriotism, self-reliance spirit and the strength of the whole nation.

The Politburo stressed that the study and implementation of the Resolution is a key task this year, which should be carried out in a practical and appropriate manner.
In particular, all Party members and officials at all levels must thoroughly understand the Resolution in order to implement it in an effective and innovative manner.
Besides the Resolution, other Congress documents to be studied include the Political Report, the report on the implementation of socio-economic development tasks from 2011 – 2015 and development orientations and missions from 2016 – 2020, and the report on the implementation of the Resolution of the 11th Party Central Committee’s fourth plenum on some urgent Party building-related issues.
The Politburo also instructed Party committees and administrations at all levels as well as political-social organisations to devise their own plans of action on carrying out the 12th National Party Congress’s Resolution.
