(VOVworld)- The Communist Party of Vietnam’s Secretariat on Monday in Hanoi held a national conference to review 5 years of implementing the Politburo’s Directive No3 on following President Ho Chi Minh’s moral examples. President Tran Dai Quang, President of the Fatherland Front Nguyen Thien Nhan, and Head of the Party Central Committee’s Commission for Mass Mobilization Truong Thi Mai were among the 6,000 attendees at the meeting. The conference was connected online to 63 provinces and cities nationwide.

Vo Van Thuong, Head of the Party Central Committee’s Commission for Education and Communications, reported that the drive of following President Ho Chi Minh’s moral examples has been carried out in a timely and careful manner: “Over the past 5 years, the implementation of the Politburo’s Directive 03 has contributed to socio-economic development, national defence, the expansion of foreign relations and Party building. It helps prevent ideological degradation and learn from Ho Chi Minh’s moral examples. The drive has become more effective, contributing to the people’s trust in the Party and state”.

 Dinh The Huynh, Standing Secretary of Secretariat of the Party Central Committee, urged continued efforts to create a drastic change in awareness and action by the Party, the political system and the people: “It’s important that the Party, people and army become more aware of the major contents and values of Ho Chi Minh’s ethics and vision, which should be the firm spiritual foundation for society. This will help build a Vietnamese culture and people who meet the requirements of national sustainable development and defense to achieve the goal of a rich people, and a strong, democratic, fair and civilized country”.

 The conference commended exemplary individuals and collectives, who have excelled in following President Ho Chi Minh’s moral examples.
