Delegates at the
launching ceremony.
Addressing the event, which was hosted by the Ho Chi Minh
Communist Youth Union (HCYU) Central Committee, Politburo member and Secretary
of Party Central Committee (PCC) Truong Thi Mai asked the Youth Union to create
a favourable environment for its member to exert themselves and advance forward
while promptly discovering outstanding faces.
Politburo member Mai, who is also Head of the PCC Commission
for Mass Mobilisation, also demanded proper attention for youth in remote
areas, and sea and island regions, so that they can rise above from
difficulties and achieve success in life.
First Secretary of the HCYU Central Committee Le Quoc Phong
said that by studying and following Uncle Ho’s teachings, Vietnamese youth
equip themselves with revolutionary virtues, firm political stand, a vanguard
and voluntary spirit in the national construction and defence.
He called on youth union members to take practical actions
and work out initiatives to facilitate the socio-economic development of the
country.
Under the programme, which will run throughout this
September, youth unions at all levels will stage a range of activities,
including competitions on exploring Uncle Ho’s ideology, morality and
lifestyle, journeys tracking down significant historical events of his revolutionary
careers, and a meeting of 500 outstanding young Party members.
