Truong Thi Mai, Head of the Party Central Committee’s Mass Mobilization Commission, said the Party and state have promulgated many preferential policies for revolutionary contributors and policy beneficiaries.
Mrs. Mai called for increased communications on the AO disaster and mobilization of all resources to improve the living standards of AO victims.
“Social organizations at all levels should quickly implement the policies towards the third generation of AO victims and strengthen coordination to step up action for AO victims to involve an increasing number of individuals and organizations at home and abroad. More benefactors and those who have overcome difficulties should be honored,” said Mrs. Mai.
