The United Nations (UN) High-level
Tripartite Conference on Delivering as One (DaO) Initiative opened this
morning in Ha Noi.
Participants to the event
include high-ranking leaders from 8 countries piloting the One UN
Initiative, and representatives from 22 sponsor countries and the UN
agencies.
For
common interests
Opening
the event, PM Nguyen Tan Dung said that for 65 years of its operation,
the UN has made tremendous contributions to the world’s peace,
cooperation and development but it also needs to be reformed
comprehensively to perform better in the new context.
Besides
upgrading the roles of the UN General Assembly and renovating the UN
Security Council, member countries wish to refresh working styles of the
UN’s development bodies in order to better support members to realize
the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs).
Being
inspired by that thought, Vietnam and other seven countries volunteered
to pilot the One UN Initiative.
The
implementation of the initiative has gained positive achievements
thanks to the great efforts made by the eight pilot countries, sponsors,
and the international community. Now, more countries have shown their
increasing interest in joining the initiative.
Vietnam has closely
coordinated with the UN bodies to develop specific projects for
long-term and comprehensive cooperation on the basis of promoting the
Government’s role in all processes.
Eight
pilot countries, including Vietnam, have made valuable contributions
and experience for the consolidation of the UN.
DaO
Initiative should be expanded
To
better deploy the initiative, the Vietnamese Government chief voiced
some following suggestions.
First,
the pilot countries should continue to take the lead in deploying the
initiative through enhancing the role and engagement of their
Governments. Lessons attained over the past three years should be
reviewed and summed up for other countries’ consultation.
Second,
the UN should legalize some achievements obtained during the pilot
time.
Third,
sponsors should further support the implementation of the initiative
and provide stable financial assistance to the UN’s development
activities.
Reform
is a long-term process that needs durable commitments and efforts of
the UN and its member countries, said PM Dung. He emphasized that the
most importance is reform’s fruits which can better peoples’ living
standard and quicken the realization of MDGs.
After
the opening ceremony, the conference broke into discussions. The Ha Noi
Statement will be adopted to reaffirm the pilot countries’ commitment
to the initiative, and sponsors and the UN bodies’ joint approach for
more effective performance of the UN. |
