President Ho Chi Minh laid the foundations for building the socialist rule-of-law State of Vietnam, that of the people, by the people and for the people. On January 6, 1946, under the leadership of the Party and President Ho Chi Minh, the first general election in the nation’s history was successfully held, leading to the establishment of the first-tenue N.A. with 333 deputies representing the great national unity bloc.

The exhibition is divided into three sections. The first features images and documents capturing President Ho Chi Minh's return to the country in 1941 and his direct leadership of the Vietnamese revolution towards national independence.

The second section highlights his role in building national unity and shaping key policy decisions, helping the N.A. and the country overcome critical historical challenges.

The third reflects the 15 legislative terms closely linked with resistance wars, national construction, renewal and international integration, underscoring the N.A.’s role in institutionalizing the Party’s guidelines, responding to the people’s aspirations, and contributing to sustainable national development.

Alongside photographs and documents spanning eight decades, artefacts related to N.A. elections are also on display.

A representative of the President Ho Chi Minh relic site at the Presidential Palace said the exhibition highlights the late leader’s deep concern for elections and the sacred civic rights of citizens.

On this occasion, a photo exhibition titled “Beautiful Moments at the President Ho Chi Minh relic site at the Presidential Palace” was also held, featuring 50 photographs capturing President Ho Chi Minh’s simple yet great life and work during the period from 1954 to 1969.
