Thua Thien - Hue (VNA) - National Assembly (NA) Chairman Tran Thanh Man and his entourage offered flowers and incense in commemoration of former State President General Le Duc Anh and General Nguyen Chi Thanh on December 29, part of their working trip to the central province of Thua Thien - Hue.

The activity took place also on the occasion of the 80th anniversary of the Vietnam People's Army (December 22, 1944 - 2024) and the 35th anniversary of the All People's Defence Festival (December 22, 1989 - 2024).

At a memorial site dedicated to General Le Duc Anh in Loc An commune of Phu Loc district, Man respectfully offered incense and flowers in tribute to the late State President - a prestigious leader of the Party and State, a close and wholehearted comrade, a talented general, and a meritorious son of his hometown Thua Thien - Hue.

Writing in the guest book at the site, he congratulated Thua Thien - Hue on officially becoming a centrally-run city from January 1, 2025, expressing his hope that the material and spiritual life of local residents will improve further in the coming time.

With over 80 years of Party membership, General Le Duc Anh dedicated his entire life to the glorious revolution of the Party and the people. He was honoured by the Party and State with numerous noble rewards, including the Gold Star Order, the first-class Military Exploit Order, the first-class Feat of Arms Order, the 80-year Party membership badge, and many other distinguished decorations of Vietnam and other countries.

Commemorating General Nguyen Chi Thanh at the museum dedicated to him in Thuan Hoa ward of Hue city, the NA Chairman wrote in the guest book that throughout his revolutionary career, the general always stayed steadfast and devoted all his heart, intelligence and talent to the revolutionary cause of the Party, significantly contributing to the struggle for national liberation, construction and defence.

The top legislator asked the authorities and people of Hue city to continue developing the museum, turning it into a red address for educating about the revolutionary tradition and patriotism among young people.

The same day, the NA leader visited and presented gifts to the families of war invalids Ha Van Luong and Nguyen Viet Dao in Phu Nhuan ward, Hue city./.
