Seventy five years ago, during the national resistance war against the French colonialists, in order to boost Party and political work in GS’s organs, on June 8, 1948, in Ke Tam village, Diem Mac commune, Dinh Hoa district, Chief of the GS Hoang Van Thai decided to establish a Political Work Committee under the GS (currently the GS’s Department of Political Affairs).

During the cause of construction and development, the department received great support of local people in Diem Mac commune to fulfill all assigned tasks.

The journey was one of meaningful activities in celebration of the 75th founding anniversary of the GS’s Department of Political Affairs (June 8, 1948 – 2023).

Addressing the ceremony, Secretary of the Party Committee of Diem Mac commune Ma Khac Phi held that currently, there are 26 historical relic sites in Diem Mac commune, including seven national-level relics. Previously, Diem Mac was a poor commune in Dinh Hoa district. However, thanks to the care of the Party and State, in 2022, it met all requirements of a new-style rural area.

Earlier, the delegation offered incense to pay tribute to President Ho Chi Minh in Phu Dinh commune, Dinh Hoa district, Thai Nguyen province, and visited a relic stele of the GS’s Department of Political Affairs in Diem Mac commune.
