The delegates expressed their profound gratitude to President Ho Chi Minh, the founder of the nation, a talented leader, a great teacher of the Vietnamese revolution, a national liberation hero, an eminent man of culture, a typical international communist and a close friend of peace-loving nations in the world.

Exactly 70 years ago, on October 10, 1954, President Ho Chi Minh issued a call to Hanoi residents, in which he expressed a strong affection for the capital city’s residents and great joy when returning to the city.

Remembering President Ho Chi Minh’s affection and teachings, Hanoi leaders pledged to uphold solidarity and strive to make the capital city increasingly civilised and modern.

Next, the delegation offered incense at the Monuments to Heroes and Martyrs on Bac Son Street, where they expressed respect for those who have fallen for the motherland’s independence and the people’s happiness.
