He asked the association to reinforce its organization while calling on the State and the whole community to join hands in supporting AO/Dioxin victims.

At the congress, delegates elected 97 members to the executive board of the Central Committee of the VAVA. Senior Lieutenant General Nguyen Van Rinh was re-elected as VAVA’s President and Former Vice State President Nguyen Thi Binh as the Honorary President of the association.
