After nearly two years of construction, completion of compilation, approval of the outline, and acceptance testing, the book "Cam Pha - Land and People" was launched on the occasion of the 70th anniversary of the Liberation of the mining region (April 25, 1955 - April 25, 2025).
Comrade Pham Van Kinh, Vice Chairman of the People's Committee of Cam Pha City, said that this is a research project, a publication that not only has comprehensive value regarding the history, culture, and natural conditions of Cam Pha City, but also carries great spiritual significance at a time marked by many important milestones such as: the 50th anniversary of Vietnamese literature and art; the 50th anniversary of the complete liberation of the South and reunification of the country (April 30, 1975 - April 30, 2025), the 70th anniversary of the liberation of the mining region (April 25, 1955 - April 25, 2025); and in response to the annual "Book and Reading Culture Day".
Notably, the book was released at a time when the Project for restructuring and reorganizing administrative units at all levels and building a two-tiered local government organizational model was being implemented nationwide.
In this context, the book is not only a recognition of the great contributions of generations of officials and people of all ethnic groups in Cam Pha city in the journey of construction and development, but also a symbol preserving the memory of a memorable historical period of Cam Pha.
Each page is a testament to a land rich in revolutionary traditions, a tribute to the past, and a valuable resource for present and future generations to better understand, cherish, and continue on the path of building a more prosperous and civilized homeland.
