Ninh Binh organises practical activities to pay tribute to wounded soldiers, war invalids

These days, Le Tien Loi, an Agent Orange victim in Gia Van commune of Gia Vien district, has welcomed couples of delegations from agencies and organisations who visited and presented gifts to him as the way of showing their gratitude for his contributions to the nation's struggle for national liberation in the past.

A part from receiving the spiritual support from the Party, State, local administrations and people, Loi and his family also received material assistance from them as well.

His newly-built house is a practical gift from the Ninh Binh Association for Victims of Agent Orange, administrations at all levels, sectors, and local people.

These practical activities are part of the province's efforts to improve the living standards for wounded soldiers and martyrs' families and those who rendered services to the nation.

In the past recent years, the province has issued numerous resolutions, programmes, plans and documents  related to providing monthly allowances, free vocational training courses and free healthcare check-up for these policy beneficiaries.

A wide range of programmes have been held to show gratitude to martyrs, wounded soldiers and social policy beneficiary families on the 76th anniversary of War Invalids and Martyrs' Day (July 27, 1947 - 2023).

Individuals, and political and social organisations have paid a lot of visits, offered gifts, and provided free medical checkups to war veterans, wounded soldiers, martyrs' families, and people who made great contributions to the revolution.

On the occasion of 2023 Lunar New Year Festival (Tet), the Department of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs received 77,400 gift packages from the State President aand Ninh Binh's authorities, and then allocated to localities to hand over to beneficiaries promptly.

Ninh Binh also assigns local units and agencies to take care of heroic Vietnamese mothers.

It has also mobilised funds to repair houses, build new houses for beneficial families and poor households; repair martyrs' cemeteries in the province

Thanks to these efforts, the province now has no more poor households whose members are revolution contributors.
