Since the start of November, communities across Hoa Binh province have joyfully organised activities marking the great national solidarity festival. Twenty years since it was first celebrated, the festival’s vitality and great significance have gained a foothold in people’s spiritual life, thereby helping enhance the strength of the great national solidarity.

Tran Duc Truong, Vice President of the provincial Vietnam Fatherland Front (VFF) Committee, said the great national solidarity festival is celebrated in residential areas, hamlets, and villages from urban to mountainous and remote areas. Regardless of their ethnic groups, religions and social strata, all people have engaged in the festival.

On November 9, Nguyen Hoa Binh, Politburo member, Secretary of the Party Central Committee and Chief Justice of the Supreme People’s Court, joined residents on Re street in An Nghia commune, Lac Son district, in the great national solidarity festival.

The official congratulated locals on their comprehensive results and expressed his hope that they will bring into play the achievements gained in 2023 and stay united to develop their community into a rich, beautiful, and civilised area, thereby further tightening Party committees and administrations’ connectivity with people, pushing ahead with patriotic emulation campaigns and movements, and upholding fine cultural traditions.

Truong noted that in all localities, the festival comprises ceremonial and festive activities. The ceremonial part looks back on the history of the VFF, reviews the results obtained by a residential area in a year with a focus on the implementation of the "All people stay united to build new-style countryside and civilised urban areas” campaign, commends and rewards outstanding collectives and individuals, discusses targets and tasks, and launches the emulation movement for the following year. Meanwhile, the festive part features a variety of cultural and sport activities imbued with ethnic groups’ identities such as dancing, tug of war, "con” (cloth ball) throwing, and volleyball.

The festival aims to inspire the spirit of emulation and promote people’s consensus to effectively carry out socio-economic development tasks, he said, adding that many meaningful and humanitarian activities also take place on this occasion such as transfer of new houses to disadvantaged families, presenting gifts and savings accounts to poor households, and cleaning up roads and the environment.

The great national solidarity festival has become a tradition practiced annually amid the founding anniversary of the Vietnam National United Front. It shows the VFF’s creativity in reforming working methodology and centring activities on the grassroots level to build up and enhance the great national solidarity bloc. The festival is truly a big anniversary of the entire people and a contribution to the solidarity and the building of prosperous, civilised, and happy communities.
