Underscoring that history will never forget their devotions and sacrifices for the national revolutionary cause, the Party chief asked departments at all levels to be determined to better the care for these people with more specific and practical activities.
He requested the convalescent center to further implement their noble mission of taking care of revolutionary contributors and consider them as their own relatives. “It is the sentiment and responsibility of younger generations to make up for older ones’ sacrifices”, Trong said.
