PM commemorates fallen soldiers, heroic Vietnamese mothers in Quang Nam
VOV.VN - Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh offered incense and laid a wreath in tribute to fallen soldiers at the Quang Nam Provincial Martyrs' Cemetery on February 8 during his working trip to the province in the early days of the Lunar New Year.
In front of the monument, the PM and other Government officials and leaders of Quang Nam province bowed in deep gratitude for the soldiers’ great sacrifices, having given their youth and lives for the independence and freedom of the nation and the happiness of the people.
In their hearts and minds, present-day generations live in peace and development thanks to the heroic sacrifices of those who fought in the nation’s long struggles for national independence and defense. The indomitable spirit of the heroes and martyrs will forever live on in the hearts of the people, standing as a timeless symbol of patriotism and resilience.
Later, the PM offered incense and laid a wreath at the Monument dedicated to Heroic Vietnamese Mothers, expressing their deep respect and gratitude to the mothers, who are a shining symbol of revolutionary heroism.
During the past wars, many Vietnamese mothers sent their husbands and children to the battlefield and waited endlessly for their return in vain. Their sacrifices not only shape the glorious history of Vietnam but also embody the noble qualities of Vietnamese women that are heroism, indomitability, loyalty and capability.
Although the war has passed and peace has been restored, the pain and loss cannot be fully healed. Nonetheless, these sacrifices will always be remembered, serving as a great source of spiritual strength for future generations.
The Provincial Martyrs’ Cemetery is located in Tam Phu commune, Tam Ky city of Quang Nam province. Built in 2011, the site is the resting place of around 3,000 fallen soldiers.
Close to the cemetery is the Heroic Vietnamese Mothers Monument which was built to pay tribute to and honour the immense sacrifices of Heroic Vietnamese Mothers in the struggle for national independence and freedom. The statue was modeled after Mother Nguyen Thi Thu (1904–2010), who lost nine biological children, one son-in-law, and two grandsons in the wars against French colonialism and American imperialism.
