In the fight against corruption in the socioeconomic field, it was also important to fight negative phenomena in political thought, morality, and lifestyle. Party members and public servants have to set an example and enhance the studying and following of Ho Chi Minh's thoughts, morality, and lifestyle.
Besides strengthening inspection activities of State agencies, the Vietnam Fatherland Front of HCMC, social and political organizations, it needs to promote supervision of the local people in the corruption prevention and fight, he noted.
