On behalf of the government, PM Phuc extended his profound condolences to Chinh’s family members over his death.
Writing in the book of condolences, the government leader noted that with 70 years as a Party member, comrade Chinh contributed his whole life to the revolutionary cause of the Party and the nation. Appointed to many leading positions of the country, both in the past resistance war and in the current national construction and protection, Chinh always fulfilled all tasks entrusted by the Party, State and people, PM Phuc said.
He added that during the 1980s as the national economy was facing countless difficulties, Chinh, as Secretary of the Long An provincial Party Committee and then Deputy Chairman of the Council of Ministers, always maintained innovative thought, contributing to initiating the nation’s renovation cause.
Later the same day, a delegation of the Government Office, headed by Minister Mai Tien Dung, offered incense to the late Deputy Chairman of the Council of Ministers.
