Implementing learning, and thoroughly implement resolutions 4th Conference of the Party Central Committee (XI)

In the field of science, where the activities often have regulations and requirements for the moral qualities - such as honesty and fair spirit for the common good - is set to the highest, the money required the right people and the right to be respected as leading. But money is allocated right things leading political power that all agencies are to hold up. In Vietnam, they have the MOST often complained that the Ministry of Planning and Investment of holding too much power in the work plan budget allocation and reference a very limited way the proposals from the Ministry of Science and Technology . However, despite agency power this decision allocating funds for S & T in our country is still heavily applying for, lacking a scientific basis convincing, and was deeply influenced by the work non-scientific personnel. A common example is the phenomenon of the research institutions we constantly seek to 'lobby' to enhance the legitimacy and political influence, possibly from a small laboratory become the center research, from the center to become academics, from the parent organization to continue bearing children out of institutions, etc. Automatically associated with the increased status and progress of the expansion of the scale is the increase in staff payroll and other benefits, will inevitably lead to an increase in funding from the state budget that not necessarily accompanied by the quality and quantity of research output. Meanwhile, in countries with the management of scientific and technological development it is not ranked research institution under the claim for pure, but based closely on the output, forcing these organizations have often constantly competing efforts to gain funding for its development. A research center could be considered temporary and are enjoying excellent incentives other than the center, but will not be able to maintain that privilege and if not managed wisely developed only to be caught up and lagging behind competitors. Of course, to be able to compete freely healthy, the research organization said on autonomy to be held staffing, assessing outputs must be based on explicit published criteria, and most important is the evaluation of the project evaluation / research products must be made by the council has sufficient expertise, management has been rigorously and consistently. In Vietnam today, only NAFOSTED Fund only partially meet the requirements of consistency in the management of funds allocated for research science and technology. But the size of the fund is very small, negligible compared to the resources devoted to research science and technology are still being distributed pursuant to the decision of the myriad of boards lying scattered across ministries and localities. The consequences of this situation are the resources of the State for Science and Technology has invested in a fragmented medium rampant, and not a public agency subject to the accountability. To get rid of the state budget allocation for science and technology as the current bureaucracy, one of the most important solution is to soon move to implement the model national S & T funds. It is a model that most developed countries are implementing efficient, by ensuring consistency in management - a single agency accountability - ensuring flexibility to suit the its own activity of S & T, and allow the participation of the leading scientists in the strategic decision of spending state budget for science to mitigate the effects of the agent unscientific than would wanted - leading scientists can fully participate in the fund's executive board instead limited only voice in an advisory role or as a guest at the conference single discrete.
