Honored to be chosen to organize the ceremony, parade, and march to celebrate the 80th anniversary of the August Revolution and National Day September 2 (A80), the entire political system and the people of the Capital have participated not only with responsibility, but also with great pride. Thanks to that, up to now, the city's preparations have been basically completed, ready for the Great Day of the country.

Deputy Secretary of the Hanoi Party Committee Nguyen Van Phong said that since receiving the task of implementing A80, the Standing Committee of the Party Committee has determined that all levels and sectors must proactively accept and take care of the work. This guiding viewpoint has been completely correct so far, and the city's preparation progress has generally been guaranteed. The tasks of ensuring security and order, logistics, healthcare , power grid, urban order, environmental sanitation, etc. have been meticulously planned and assigned specific tasks for implementation.

Hanoi City Police proactively developed a comprehensive plan, organized field surveys, and comprehensively assessed the situation. The unit mobilized maximum forces and means, closely coordinated with the Ministry of Public Security, the Ministry of National Defense, and city departments, agencies, and branches to ensure absolute safety for the commemorative activities.

During the past training days, the Hanoi Traffic Police Department mobilized maximum forces to control and regulate traffic to ensure stable traffic and avoid congestion in key areas.

At intersections and main roads leading to Ba Dinh Square, the Traffic Police and Ward Police, regardless of rain or heat, were present to block and direct traffic from a distance. The authorities immediately handled any issues arising regarding urban order or environmental sanitation.

Lieutenant General Nguyen Thanh Tung, Director of Hanoi City Police, emphasized that A80 is an important political mission, associated with the honor and pride of every officer and soldier of the Capital Police. The entire force has a firm grasp of the plan, absolutely will not allow any negligence; any violations and lack of responsibility will be strictly handled.

"This is an opportunity for the Capital Police force to continue to train, mature, and build the image of a Capital Police soldier who is "courageous, humane, and serves the people," said Lieutenant General Nguyen Thanh Tung.

To ensure that people and tourists can conveniently watch the rehearsal, preliminary rehearsal, and final rehearsal, the Hanoi City Traffic Management and Operation Center has detailed and close plans to serve people's travel.

From August 30 to September 2, 128 subsidized bus routes and two urban railway lines in Hanoi, along with nearly 200 parking lots, will serve people for free.

Hanoi Metro Company Limited proactively increased the frequency of trains on the two elevated railway lines, extended operating hours, and organized passenger traffic at key stations. Hanoi Metro's leadership was directly present at the scene to direct and coordinate with all officers and employees, ensuring safe, smooth, and civilized service.

The Central Government trusts and the whole country looks to the Capital, so the whole city must not only work with the highest responsibility, but also with all the enthusiasm and affection of the Capital and the country. This is the time for all levels and sectors from the city down to the grassroots and each citizen of the Capital to demonstrate the qualities of elegance, civilization, and humanity, affirming the glory of the Ho Chi Minh era.
