The appointment was confirmed through a consultative election process during the closing session of the 11th National Congress of the Vietnam Fatherland Front held in Hanoi on May 13.

Speaking after her re-election, Hoai described the confidence placed in the new leadership as both an honour and a significant responsibility for the organisation’s new term.

On behalf of newly selected members of the 11th VFF Central Committee, she expressed gratitude to the Party, the State, citizens and armed forces nationwide for their continued trust and support toward the Vietnam Fatherland Front.

“We pledge absolute loyalty to the Party, the Fatherland and the people; to uphold political integrity and moral values; and to devote our full efforts to fulfilling the responsibilities entrusted to us,” she said at the closing ceremony.

According to the VFF leader, the new term will prioritise strengthening national unity and promoting reforms in the operations of the Vietnam Fatherland Front to further reinforce its role and position during the country’s next stage of development.

She also expressed hope for continued guidance from the Politburo and the Party Secretariat, along with stronger coordination from ministries, agencies, socio-political organisations and localities.

The chairwoman additionally called for ongoing support from experts, intellectuals, overseas Vietnamese communities and member organisations affiliated with the VFF to make its operation more effective.
