Answer 1

Here you go.........hope this helps

In Vietnam, governmental policy is largely the prerogative of the communist leadership, with policy being set by the Politburo and its five-man Standing Board, which oversees day-to-day policy implementation. The most important political institution in Vietnam is the Vietnamese Communist Party (formerly the Vietnam Worker's Party) headed by Secretary General Le Kha Phieu. The large and unwieldy Party Congress, which gathers every five years, last met in 1996. The Central Committee membership, which is elected from this group, represents less than 10% of the national congress and usually meets twice a year. The Party's popular support appears to be diminishing throughout Vietnam as the rate of new membership has decreased since the 1980s.
