(HBO) - In historical May’s days, joining the influx of people, we visited the monument of President Ho Chi Minh in the Hoa Binh Hydroelectric Plant on the occasion of the 130th birthday anniversary of the late leader.
Youths offer incense in
tribute to late President Ho Chi Minh at the monument.
The 18-metre monument is located on the top of
Ong Tuong hill. It is structured by a solid concrete block weighing several
hundreds of tonnes. From the monument's foot to the lobby area, there are 79
steps, symbolizing 79 years of life of the beloved leader, who devoted his
whole life to the struggle for national independence and freedom and the
people’s happiness.
The idea to construct the monument in the
hydroelectric work came from Uncle Ho’s visit to the Party Committee and people
of Hoa Binh province.
He visited the Socialist Labour Youth School
(now in Hoa Binh city’s Yen Mong commune) in the flood season. He was taken
across the river by a large raft.
Standing on the raft, Uncle Ho pointed to the Da
River and said "after the country is united, we must conquer this river to
prevent floods and serve the people's interests”.
Implementing his teaching, with the
determination "No job is hard if one’s will is enduring; Even digging down
the Mountain, or filling up the Ocean is done by one’s will”, officials and
people in the province joined hands and contributed to overcoming all hardships
in order to complete the hydroelectric project, which significantly serves the
country’s industrialization and modernization cause.
Bui Van Tung, a resident in Lac Son district,
said on the occasion of Uncle Ho's birthday every year, his family and
neighbours visit and offer incense in tribute to the president at the monument.
The act is to show their love for the nation's
Father, and this is also an opportunity to educate his children and
grandchildren about the national traditions, he added.
Offering flowers and incense at the monument in
May with respect and love for the nation’s late leader, every citizen of Hoa
Binh province promises to follow Uncle Ho's example to fulfill assigned tasks
and duties./.
In the spirit of "Party members go first, the people follow”, all households of Party members in the Doan Ket sub-region in Da Bac town, Da Bac district, voluntarily removed gates and fences, and donated land when the road expansion project passed through their properties. Inspired by their example, 68 households in the sub-region quickly followed suit, contributing over 1,400 sq.m of residential and perennial cropland to widen the main road through the residential area. The exemplary role of Party members in Doan Ket stands as a shining example of studying and following President Ho Chi Minh’s thought, morality, and lifestyle.
The Hoa Binh provincial People's Committee held a monthly meeting on May 29 to assess the implementation of socio-economic development tasks in the first six months of 2025, the progress of key projects, and some other important issues.
During his lifetime, President Ho Chi Minh always expressed his deep affection and special concern for children and youth. He once emphasized: "Caring for and educating children well is the responsibility of the entire Party and the entire people”; "First of all, the family (i.e. grandparents, parents, siblings) must do this job well”. "the Party Committees…, the Children’s Committee, the Youth Union, the education sector, and all related organizations must have specific plans to ensure children grow healthier and more progressive”. His teachings has been remaining valuable and serving as the guiding principles in the work of protecting, caring for, and educating children. In line with this ideology, Hoa Binh Province has continuously been prioritizing and investing resources in the well-being of children in recent years.
