On February 3, the Standing Committee of the City Party Committee met to listen to and give opinions on many important issues within its authority, including the plan to renovate and upgrade the works around the monument of the People's Armed Forces Hero, Martyr Vu Van Hieu, the first Secretary of the Quang Ninh Mining Zone Special Zone (Bach Dang Ward).
The current monument of comrade Vu Van Hieu was started in late September 2016 on an area of 8,300m2 , and was completed on the occasion of the 80th anniversary of the Traditional Day of Mining Workers - Tradition of the Coal Industry on November 12 (1936-2016). The monument was built in the central area of the Lan Be flower park complex, the memorial to heroic martyrs, the Provincial Youth and Children's Cultural Palace, located in the block of cultural and tourist works from the historical relic of Bai Chay Ferry, Bai Tho Mountain, Quang Ninh Museum, Provincial Library, Planning Palace, Provincial Fair and Exhibition..., creating favorable conditions for people and tourists to visit.
The portrait statue of Comrade Vu Van Hieu was cast in pure red copper and weighed 1.7 tons by Thang Long Fine Arts and Trade Company Limited. On the right side of the monument are two large blocks of coal brought from the Deo Nai coal mine, where President Ho Chi Minh visited on March 30, 1959.
The monument of comrade Vu Van Hieu has been given a plaque of the project to celebrate the 80th anniversary of the Mining Workers' Tradition Day - Coal Industry Tradition November 12, showing the gratitude and deep appreciation of the Party Committee, government and people of Quang Ninh towards comrade Vu Van Hieu, with the meaning of educating the tradition for the younger generation, continuing to promote the spirit of "Discipline and unity", building the Coal industry to develop and Quang Ninh province to become more and more prosperous.
With the goal of building this place into a "red address" to educate the young generation about historical and cultural traditions, as well as a new and attractive tourist destination, the Standing Committee of the Ha Long City Party Committee has directed the City People's Committee to select a consulting unit to develop a plan to renovate and upgrade the works around the monument area of comrade Vu Van Hieu.
At the conference, after listening to four design options presented by two consulting units, the Standing Committee of the Ha Long City Party Committee requested the consulting units to carefully study historical documents related to the revolutionary activities of comrade Vu Van Hieu to create and build a monument to comrade Vu Van Hieu in accordance with his role as the first Secretary of the Hon Gai Special Zone Party Committee; at the same time, design the surrounding landscape to ensure service for future tourism activities.
The plan to renovate and upgrade the works around the monument of comrade Vu Van Hieu will be submitted to the Provincial Party Committee Standing Committee for comments, approval and public opinion before officially implementing.
