The President requested the Party Committees at all levels, authorities, the Fatherland Front, mass organisations and agencies to join the entire people to promote the movement of paying gratitude to improve the material and spiritual lives of those people deserving merit.
On this occasion, Prime Minister Nguyen Tan Dung visited an exhibition depicting 300 portraits of heroic Vietnamese mothers nationwide in Hanoi on July 27.

The book “Mothers’ Portraits” with the 300 portraits will be published.
