This is part of his trip to China to attend the 8th Greater Mekong Subregion Summit and related summits in China.

Prime Minister Pham and his entourage were introduced by local guides to locations closely associated with the activities of prominent revolutionary figures like China’s President Mao Zedong and Premier Zhou Enlai, and President Ho Chi Minh.

At the Hongyan Revolutionary Memorial Hall, there is a room where the late Vietnamese leader, under alias Ho Quang, lived and conducted revolutionary activities around 1939-1940.

Writing in a book at the historical site, Pham expressed sincere gratitude to local authorities and people for preserving and maintaining the room and furniture inside it.

He emphasised that this valuable historical site is a vivid testament to the strong, enduring friendship between the two parties and peoples of Viet Nam and China during the years of struggles for national independence.

The Vietnamese leader expressed his confidence that the site will continue contributing to educating future generations about revolutionary traditions and strengthening the social foundation for the Viet Nam-China Comprehensive Strategic Cooperative Partnership, and the Viet Nam-China Community with a shared future which carries strategic significance./.
