Chongqing (VNA) - Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh visited the Hongyan historical relic site, where President Ho Chi Minh did revolutionary activities, in Chongqing city on November 8, as part of his trip to China to attend the eighth Greater Mekong Subregion Summit and have working activities in the neighbouring country.
Chinh and his delegation were introduced by local guides to locations closely associated with the activities of prominent revolutionary figures like China’s President Mao Zedong and Premier Zhou Enlai, and President Ho Chi Minh.
At the Hongyan Revolutionary Memorial Hall, there is a room where the late Vietnamese leader, under alias Ho Quang, lived and conducted revolutionary activities around 1939-1940.
Writing in a book at the historical site, Chinh expressed sincere gratitude to local authorities and people for preserving and maintaining the room and furniture inside it.
He emphasised that this valuable historical site is a vivid testament to the strong, enduring friendship between the two parties and peoples of Vietnam and China during the years of struggles for national independence.
The Vietnamese leader expressed his confidence that the site will continue contributing to educating future generations about revolutionary traditions and strengthening the social foundation for the Vietnam-China Comprehensive Strategic Cooperative Partnership, and the Vietnam-China Community with a shared future which carries strategic significance./.
