National Assembly Chairman Pays Homage to Fallen Heroes in Ho Chi Minh City

On the afternoon of July 26, National Assembly Chairman Tran Thanh Man, leading a delegation of the Party and State, paid homage to fallen heroes at Le Thi Rieng Park in Hoa Hung Ward, Ho Chi Minh City. This event was held ahead of the 79th anniversary of War Invalids and Martyrs' Day (July 27, 1947 - July 27, 2026). During the ceremony, Chairman Man and other state leaders offered incense and flowers to commemorate the heroes who sacrificed their lives for the peace, independence, and national reunification of Vietnam. This act signifies the nation's profound gratitude and remembrance of their contributions. Also on July 26, Vice President Vo Thi Anh Xuan paid tribute to fallen heroes at the Truong Bon National Historical Site in Nghe An Province. Similar memorial activities were conducted across the country, with Party and State leaders visiting various war memorials and the Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum to pay their respects. These nationwide commemorations serve as a reminder to the Vietnamese people of the immense sacrifices made by previous generations, which have paved the way for the country's current development and stability. They underscore the importance of national unity and honoring the legacy of those who fought for the nation. Vietnam, under its one-party system, has pursued socialist-oriented market economy reforms, achieving significant economic growth. In its foreign relations, particularly with China, while deepening economic ties, the country also navigates complex issues. Symbolic events like these commemorations play a crucial role in fostering national solidarity and morale. Source: Nhan Dan
