Paying solemn tribute to the founder of modern Vietnam, President Luong Cuong pledged to join the entire Party, people, and armed forces in further promoting the strength of great national unity; studying and follow Ho Chi Minh’s thought, morality, and style; upholding solidarity, self-reliance, and self-resilience; and realizing the aspiration for national development, building a country that is increasingly prosperous, strong, civilized, and happy, with people enjoying ever-improving living standards and well-being.

The President’s incense-offering ceremony at House 67 and Bac Bo Phu on the final evening of the Year of the Snake reflected the profound gratitude of the Party, State, and people toward President Ho Chi Minh. The Presidential Office headquarters is a site of special historical significance associated with many major national events. It was the location of the Hanoi’s struggle to seize power during the August 1945 Revolution, and where President Ho Chi Minh and the provisional government of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam worked from after the revolution until the outbreak of the nationwide resistance in 1946.

On the occasion, President Luong Cuong also extended his regards and best wishes to all officials, civil servants, public employees, and workers at the Ho Chi Minh relic site, as well as staff of the Presidential Office and their families.
