It is necessary to implement mechanisms and policies, especially at the Governmental level, to promote a start-up spirit among youths, he added, calling on young people to contribute further to the nationwide start-up campaign, which aims to establish 500,000 enterprises by 2020 and eventually raise the total number to over one million.

PM Phuc also pointed out a number of difficulties and challenges facing the country, especially natural disasters, plus threats of peaceful evolution, corruption and other social bad deeds.

The union should encourage and promote patriotism, revolutionary ideasl and trust in the political regime among the younger generation, he said.

The PM also requested that a regular working mechanism is established between the Government, the HCYU Central Committee and all-level authorities in order to collect more opinions from youth, as well as urging the union to build mechanisms, policies and activities to foster the development of young people in all fields, across social and economic aspects.

During the session, Deputy PM Vu Duc Dam and First Secretary of the 11th HCYU Central Committee Le Quoc Phong signed a joint Resolution on the cooperation mechanism between the Government and the HCYU Central Committee during 2017-2022.
