“Candidates all have qualifications, working experience and practical experience and are holding positions in State agencies or political and social organizations. It will be very difficult for voters to make their choice this time,” he said.
Mr. Duong shared that at meetings with candidates, many voters expressed their confidence that the elected candidates would fulfill their responsibilities as representatives of the people and fulfill their promises and commitments.
Sharing the same view, voter Doan Hong Phong, resident at Tran Hung Dao ward (Hoan Kiem, Hanoi) said he believes that delegates elected this time will be virtuous, capable and talented people, who truly represent the will and aspirations of the people, whether they are deputy at the National Assembly or at People’s Councils of all level.

“Through the recent talks, it can be seen that delegates meet all criteria, but it is necessary to emphasize that voters need to be wise to choose the most deserving delegates. Voters’ choice should be based on quality, not structure. They should vote for delegates who have a clear action plan and can fulfil promises they have made to voters once they are elected," Mr. Cuong emphasized./.
