The Party chief affirmed that delegates reached consensus on the signing and approval of the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) Agreement based on regulations on signing and joining international treaties.

The Central Committee highly appraised the efforts and determination of the Government and related agencies in negotiating the Agreement.

The TPP brings both opportunities and challenges for Viet Nam, he said, expecting that Viet Nam is confident to overcome obstacles to seize opportunities brought by the TPP to make the nation develop in a faster and more sustainable manner.

The Party Central Committee entrusted the Party delegation to the Government to coordinate with related sides joining the TPP to complete procedures to officially ink the Agreement in February 2016 as well as assign the Political Bureau to submit to the National Assembly to ratify the Agreement and the draft of the Party Central Committee’s Resolution on effective international integration - given the country’s engagement in the new-generation free trade agreements, including the TPP.

Regarding personnel work, the Party chief said the committee had discussed in a democratic and straightforward manner, and voted to adopt the proposed additional nomination of several members of the 11th Party Central Committee for re-election in the 12th tenure as “special” cases, along with nominations of Politburo members and Party Central Committee Secretariat for re-election in the 12th tenure as “special” cases.
