Addressing the ceremony, President Nguyen Xuan Phuc underlined that the people of Vietnam will forever remember and be grateful for the great sacrifice by the heroes and martyrs, heroic Vietnamese mothers, and by many excellent, loyal and indomitable people of Que Son and all parts of the country who fought, sacrificed and stayed in the region.
He lauded the efforts of Que Son and the management board of the project in mobilizing resources for the construction of the site.
