The State leader made the statement at the second
congress of the VVBA, which was held in Hanoi on August 8.
He
noted with pleasure that many war veteran-entrepreneurs have been active in
applying advanced technology in their operations, creating jobs for thousands
of employees, and taking park in social activities.
The
veterans-turned-businessmen have established themselves as outstanding examples
of Uncle Ho’s soldiers, he stressed.
He
asked the association to continue popularising the Party’s guidelines and the
State’s policies and laws to its members, while drawing upon the socio-economic
development programmes and plans of the country.
He
called on the servicemen-entrepreneurs to raise their competitive advantage,
develop high added-value services, remain active in international integration,
and make further contributions to the socio-economic development in their
localities.
On
the occasion, President Quang presented the Labour Order, third class, to the
association and the Labour Order, first class, to the association’s President -
Labour Hero Le Van Kiem.
Launched
in April 2013, the VVBA now has 38 chapters with 7,728 businesses and 82,791
farms run by war veterans, with total revenues of nearly VND 200 trillion and
generating jobs for more than 800,000 employees.

Nguyen Phi Long, alternate member of the Party Central Committee and Secretary of the Hoa Binh provincial Party Committee, and other officials on April 8 examined some key transport projects, namely the road connecting Tran Hung Dao Road and Dan Chu ward with National Highway 6, the regional connectivity road linking Hoa Binh and Hanoi with Son La Expressway (Hoa Binh - Moc Chau), and the first phase of a road from Luong Son township of Hoa Binh to Xuan Mai township of Hanoi.
Hoa Binh province recorded nearly 20 cases of religion-related wrongdoings in 2023 and the first two months of 2024. However, thanks to their active and effective engagement, relevant agencies and religious organisations have helped the provincial and district-level People’s Committees deal with those cases in a timely manner and in line with legal regulations, thus ensuring religious freedom.
The Hoa Binh provincial People’s Committee held its monthly conference in virtual form on April 2 to review draft documents to be submitted to the standing board of the provincial Party Committee and others under its management along with some other important issues. Vice Secretary of the provincial Party Committee and Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee Bui Van Khanh chaired the event, which was connected with the people's committees of districts and cities in Hoa Binh.
Smokeless 'Hoang Cam' kitchen was a small yet extremely significant initiative of a soldier chef named Hoang Cam in the Hoa Binh campaign in 1951 – 1952. This legendary stove, later named after him, accompanied the nation in the 1954 Dien Bien Phu Campaign, and during the resistance war against the US.
The 15th meeting of Hoa Binh province’s 17th-tenure Party organisation was held on March 26. Secretary of the provincial Party Committee Nguyen Phi Long, Permanent Deputy Secretary of the Party Committee and Chairman of the provincial People's Council Bui Duc Hinh, and Deputy Secretary of the Party Committee and Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee Bui Van Khanh co-chaired the event.
Nguyen Phi Long, alternate member of the Party Central Committee and Secretary of the Hoa Binh provincial Party Committee, chaired a meeting of the provincial Party Committee’s Standing Board on March 21 to review the leadership over the implementation of tasks in the first quarter, identify focal tasks and solutions for the second quarter, and discuss some important draft reports.
