Vietnam’s top leader To Lam has promised to fight corruption and boost annual economic growth to more than 10 percent for the remainder of the decade, as he addressed a gathering of the country’s governing Communist Party.
In a speech before a twice-a-decade party congress on Tuesday, the secretary-general stressed that “all wrongdoings must be dealt with”, while urging the party to pursue administrative reform and tackle “wastefulness and negativity” in government.
