The total estimated cost of over 10 trillion VND for distributing gifts to the entire population is clearly a considerable sum, given the limited national resources and the urgent need for budget allocation to other tasks. However, with the country's current strength and the achievements of the Vietnamese people over the past 80 years, this is the most opportune time for the Party and State to carry out this gift-giving initiative.

The gifts not only possess material value but also demonstrate the profound concern of the Party and the State, conveying warm feelings and sharing to each family and each individual, creating a vibrant and colorful picture of unity, faith, and the aspiration for peace and prosperity.
