Party chief attends All People's Security Safeguard Festival in Tuyen Quang
Party General Secretary To Lam praised Tuyen Quang’s launch of the “all-people’s security proection” movement in recent years, particularly in Tan Trao, a locality rich with revolutionary tradition. The movement has been integrated into broader pushes for advanced new rural development, preservation of ethnic cultural heritage, protection of upstream forests, and promotion of “red tourism” tied to revolutionary sites, all while maintaining public safety and order.

Tuyen Quang (VNA) – Party General Secretary To Lam attended the All People's Security Safeguard Festival and the inauguration of the President Ho Chi Minh’s monument in Tan Trao, the northern province of Tuyen Quang on August 14.

The event came ahead of the 80th anniversaries of August Revolution (August 19) and National Day (September 2), alongside the founding of the People’s Public Security Force and the 20th anniversary of the All People’s Security Safeguard Festival, also observed on August 19.

In his speech, General Secretary Lam underscored the event’s significance as a moment to reflect on Vietnam’s history and honour citizens’ contributions to the cause of national security protection and social safety and order.

He praised Tuyen Quang’s launch of the “all-people’s security proection” movement in recent years, particularly in Tan Trao, a locality rich with revolutionary tradition.

On the occasion, he presented full State funding for the construction of the boarding school, which will serve primary and secondary education, in Thanh Thuy commune. He also planted a commemorative tree at the site of the newly unveiled “President Ho Chi Minh in Tan Trao” monument.

At the inauguration ceremony, Minister of Public Security Gen. Luong Tam Quang highlighted the significance of the monument's construction in Tuyen Quang where President Ho Chi Minh lived and worked for nearly six years during the revolutionary period. Standing 7.9m tall and crafted from nearly seven tonnes of pure copper, the monument, set on a 3.6m pedestal, draws on archival images to capture his likeness. It aims to transform the Tan Trao Special National Historical Site into a national hub for revolutionary education, while preserving vivid memories and the lasting image of Ho Chi Minh during his time in Tuyen Quang./.

Ho Chi Minh’s thought continues to guide national growth

Eighty years since the historic autumn of 1945, the Vietnamese nation has overcome countless challenges to gain its independence and gradually develop thanks to the revolutionary path that is both resolute and flexible under the leadership of the Party. This is a profound inheritance and creative application of President Ho Chi Minh’s thought on “employing the invariables to cope with the variables” — a deep and guiding principle that has forged the mettle, intellect, and resilience of the Vietnamese people.
