of the State President and the provincial Party Committee, People’s Council,

People’s Committee granted Tet gifts of the State President and the provincial
Party Committee, People’s Council, People’s Committee and Vietnam Fatherland
Front Committee to them. Voicing his profound gratitude towards them, Quang
affirmed that the provincial Party Committee and locals always bear in mind great
contributions made by the previous generations to the national liberation,
including the sacrifice of Heroic Mothers. On the occasion of the Tet festival,

happiness, and prosperity.
On this occasion, the delegation also paid a Tet
visit to the family of Nguyen Trong Tho, late Vice Secretary of the Party
Committee and Chairman of the People’s Committee of Ha Son Binh province (in
