The event was also attended by former Politburo member, former Party General Secretaries Le Kha Phieu; and former Politburo member, former President Truong Tan Sang; as well as leaders of central and local departments, agencies and branches and local people.

Addressing the ceremony, Permanent Deputy Prime Minister Truong Hoa Binh said that Viet Bac victory in 1947, border battle in 1950, and Moc Hoa victory in 1948 generated great momentum for the Vietnamese soldiers and civilians to take further victories in the struggle for national independence toward national reunification in 1975.

Deputy Prime Minister Binh urged the Party Committee and people of the Kien Tuong town, Moc Hoa district in particular and Long An province in general to continue promoting the spirit of solidarity in building a truly clean and strong political system, exploiting local advantages for sustainable economic development, and raising the material and spiritual life of the people, as well as ensuring national defense and security and maintaining political stability.

He also asked the Party Committees, authorities and people of Long An province to carry out the gratitude movements to take care of war invalids, martyr families, and families with meritorious contributions to the country./.
