The delegation paid respect to President Ho Chi Minh, a genius leader and a national hero who has devoted his entire life to the Vietnamese country and people, leading the Communist Party of Vietnam and the Vietnamese people to glorious victories. His ideology and career are invaluable asset and the torch lighting the path to future of the Vietnamese people.

September 2, 1945 has entered the Vietnamese history as a brilliant milestone. At the historic Ba Dinh Square, President Ho Chi Minh read the Declaration of Independence, giving birth to the Democratic Republic of Vietnam, now the Socialist Republic of Vietnam.

President Ho Chi Minh's aspiration for independence, freedom, and happiness has become a huge source of motivation and strength for the Vietnamese people to overcome all difficulties and challenges.
