After a period of making relentless efforts, he was honored to become a Party member. In 2013, the Party cell of Astro Engineering Vietnam Co., Ltd. was established and now he is the Secretary of the Party cell. “Since its establishment, along with disseminating the Party and State's guidelines, policies and laws among employees, the Party cell has also coordinated with the company’s trade union local to promote the organization of patriotic emulation movements, well performing the task of taking care of trade unionists’ material and spiritual lives so that they have the opportunity to train and strive to join the Party. The Party cell and trade union local have also strengthened propaganda and education, raising awareness of the position and role of the Party organization in enterprises" said Mr. Hoang.

Improving content and form

Over the past years, provincial trade unions at all levels attached special importance to developing new Party members among workers and achieved initial results. However, compared to the number of employees in the province, the percentage of Party members among workers is still very low. Tran Do Hoai Bao, Secretary of the Party cell, Director of He Vi Production and Trading Joint Stock Company in Ben Cat town shared that most employees working for the company are immigrants, so it is very difficult for the company to realize resume verification for them. In addition, many workers aspire to join the Party, but have limited educational attainment. Meanwhile, many business owners have not created conditions for the establishment and operation of socio-political organizations...Truong Van Phi, Vice-Secretary of the Party  cell, Vice-Chairman of Ben Cat town-based Industrial Parks ‘Trade Union said that Party development in enterprises, especially non-State ones should further attach special importance to improving new contents and forms of propaganda in association with the renewal of Party activities in enterprises towards conciseness, flexibility and practicability in line with regulations…

It is necessary to improve the content, form and quality of the Party cell activities in line with the specific characteristics of employees who are Party members working in foreign-invested enterprises in order to attract Party members to participate in more effective activities. In particular, it is necessary to pay attention to leaders, managers, and mass organization officials for training and admission, thereby forming up and developing Party organizations in enterprises, especially foreign-invested ones…”, said Mr. Phi.

Le Van Hieu, Party Secretary, Chairman of Thuan An city’s Labor Union said that currently, the time to attend political theory training classes for admitted subjects is long, so it is difficult for workers to arrange time for participation. On the other hand, if participating in training classes about awareness of the Party, employees will have to quit their jobs and not receive wages. This is because these classes are mainly held on weekdays while employees mainly work to earn income. "Therefore, the time of opening political theory training courses should be flexible, innovative in the evening or be organized online...", Mr. Hieu said.

During the period of 2015-2020, provincial trade unions at all levels recommended 2,759 outstanding trade unionists  to the Party committees for training, 321 of whom were admitted to the Party.
