The event was held by the Vietnam Women’s Union (VWU) Central Committee on the threshold of the 70th anniversary of the War Invalids and Martyrs Day (July 27).

Over the past 70 years, the Party and State have issued and improved policies providing preferential treatment for revolution contributors, Thinh said, adding that agencies and localities have also paid due attention to raising living conditions of families of martyrs, war invalids and revolution contributors.

Having applauded efforts made by the VWU and its chapters to honour and care for Vietnamese Heroic Mothers and revolution contributors, the Vice President voiced her hope that the association will uphold its role and responsibility for the work and raise the awareness among its members about relevant policies and guidelines of the Party and State.
