HÀ NỘI – The newly-established Committee for the Management of State Capital at Enterprises is seeking qualified managers and employees to ensure its effective operation.

“The selection must be done transparently to ensure that right persons are recruited to manage and develop the State assets and capital in investment and business activities,” said committee chairman Nguyễn Hoàng Anh.

Anh said the committee would also develop and submit to the Prime Minister for approval a project detailing criteria on governing enterprises under its management.

“The deed is of significance so cannot be done overnight. The committee will operate step by step based on the availability of qualified personnel recruited to make sure its best performance,” he said.

The committee was formed in accordance with the Government’s Resolution 09/NQ-CP in early February to act as the ownership representative of State capital at wholly State-owned enterprises and at joint stock and liability companies with two or more members. 

The issue of selecting qualified managers and employees for the committee was put on the table for discussion at a meeting of the Government’s Working Group, headed by Deputy Prime Minister Vương Đình Huệ, on the establishment of the committee on Monday in Hà Nội.

Deputy PM Huệ stressed that the cadre work must abide by the Politburo’s project on the establishment of the committee, ensuring that it would not further increase the State pay roll and that newly-recruited personnel be capable of performing their task immediately.

“The committee is a body that directly carries out tasks assigned by the Government and Prime Minister so it is crucial that its staff must be engaged in the work promptly to make sure that the body’s work will not stagnate,” said the Deputy PM.

To that end, he demanded that concerned ministries and sectors proactively recruit and propose to the committee chairman a list of high-quality officers selected from their own workforce.

“Success or failure depends on the cadre work so ministries must select able ones. The list of qualified officers must be compiled in detail and transparently from the very start,” Huệ added.

“On the ground of its own structure, function and duties, the committee should develop the project to recruit position-based managers and employees.”

Huệ said each vice chairman of the committee must have professional knowledge in the field s/he is in charge of and his/her appointment must be approved by Prime Minister Nguyễn Xuân Phúc.

Deputy Minister of Finance Trần Văn Hiếu said among 21 economic groups and corporations to be put under the committee’s management 20 have made initial reports on total assets. Accordingly, the total assets of these 20 are over VNĐ1.6 quadrillion (US$70.3 billion), of which the State ownership makes up half, the Government portal chinhphu.vn reported. — VNS
