The President’s ideology, morality, lifestyle, and the entire life he spent on fighting for national independence and people’s freedom and happiness will forever guide the country on the path to build a country of prosperity and happiness, the official noted.
He added that with the patriotic tradition and solidarity, the whole city will exert joint efforts to develop and become more wealthy and civilised, thus better deserving its honour to be named after President Ho Chi Minh.
On this occasion, a delegation of municipal leaders led by Nen offered incense and flowers in commemoration of President Ho Chi Minh, along with President Ton Duc Thang – one of the first revolutionaries of the workers’ and proletarian revolutionary movements in Viet Nam, at Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum at Nha Rong Wharf.
