Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh offered incense in tribute to President Ho Chi Minh and fallen heroes, and presented gifts to policy beneficiary families in the northern province of Thai Nguyen on July 27, on the occasion of War Invalids and Martyrs’ Day.

The incense-offering ceremony took place at the National Relic Site 27/7 in Ban Co village, Hung Son town, Dai Tu district, where 300 officials, soldiers and people from all walks of life gathered on July 27, 1947 to hear President Ho Chi Minh's letter recognizing the birth of the War Invalids and Martyrs’ Day. The site now stands as a memorial to martyrs nationwide.

Presenting gifts to veterans and martyrs’ families in Dai Tu district, PM Chinh said over the past 77 years, the Vietnamese Party and State have always provided special care and preferential treatment for war invalids, martyrs' families and revolution contributors, considering it an important and regular political task.

He hailed them as war heroes who also excelled in education, labor and production. Their contributions to national construction and defense, he said, made them exemplary models for the youth to admire, learn from and follow.
