On the occasion of the 76th anniversary of War Invalids and Martyrs Day (July 27, 1947 - July 27, 2023), continuing the success of previous years' programs, to remember and repay the great contributions of martyrs, war invalids, sick soldiers, Vietnamese Heroic Mothers and families with meritorious services to the revolution, under the direction of the Central Propaganda Department, on the evening of July 21, the Communist Party of Vietnam Electronic Newspaper coordinated with relevant agencies to organize the 16th "Red Flower Color" Art Program in 2023.
The program took place at Au Co Art Center (No. 8 Huynh Thuc Khang, Hanoi ), broadcast live on VTV2 - Vietnam Television, and online on the Communist Party of Vietnam Electronic Newspaper (www.dangcongsan.vn).
Attending the Program were comrades representing the Central Propaganda Department, ministries, branches; leaders of provinces and cities and a large audience in the Capital.
The “Color of Red Flowers” program is an annual event of the Communist Party of Vietnam Electronic Newspaper. After 15 times of organization, the “Color of Red Flowers” program has created a wide spread in society, becoming a brand associated with gratitude activities on the occasion of the annual War Invalids and Martyrs Day. The “Color of Red Flowers” program has attracted special attention from all walks of life. Many organizations, individuals, agencies, units, and enterprises have devoted much affection, voluntarily supported spiritually and materially, coordinated with the Organizing Committee to participate in delegations to visit, encourage, and present tens of thousands of savings books, nearly 600 gratitude houses, along with tens of thousands of scholarships and gratitude gifts to families of war invalids, martyrs, and people with meritorious services to the revolution in many localities across the country.
During his lifetime, President Ho Chi Minh advised: "War invalids, sick soldiers, military families, and martyrs' families are those who have contributed to the Fatherland and the People, so our duty is to be grateful, to love and help them." Over the past 76 years, implementing his advice and promoting the moral tradition of "When drinking water, remember its source" and "When eating fruit, remember the person who planted the tree", our Party, State and People have always paid attention to taking care of the material and spiritual life of policy beneficiaries in many diverse and practical forms.
In particular, in recent years, the Vietnam Fatherland Front, ministries, branches, socio-political organizations, Party committees at all levels, local authorities, together with the entire Party, people and army, have effectively implemented Directive No. 14, dated July 19, 2017 of the Secretariat "On continuing to strengthen the Party's leadership over the work of people with revolutionary contributions". "Caring for and implementing preferential policies for people with revolutionary contributions is a regular and long-term duty and task of the entire political system and the entire society".
With the attention of the entire political system, in recent years, the Central Propaganda Department has assigned the Communist Party of Vietnam Electronic Newspaper to organize the "Red Flower Color" Program on the occasion of the War Invalids and Martyrs Day, July 27 every year. The program is like a message with profound humanistic meaning, expressing the responsibility, affection, and gratitude of compatriots, comrades, and soldiers nationwide towards heroic martyrs, wounded soldiers, Vietnamese Heroic Mothers, and those who have contributed to the revolution.
This year marks the 16th anniversary of the Program. Throughout that journey, “The Color of Red Flowers” has truly had a great influence on society, and is one of the important activities every time the whole country celebrates the War Invalids and Martyrs Day every year. With its great influence and special attention from all walks of life, many kind-hearted individuals, agencies, and businesses continue to come to “The Color of Red Flowers”, voluntarily donate, and join the Organizing Committee in gratitude activities; present savings books, gratitude houses, along with scholarships and gratitude gifts to families of war invalids, martyrs, and people with meritorious services to the revolution in many localities across the country.
