PHU YEN YOUTH - THANK THE HEROES

On the morning of July 4, at the Provincial Party Committee Hall, Phu Yen Provincial Youth Union solemnly organized the program "Phu Yen Youth - Gratitude to Heroes". Attending the program were Comrade Cao Thi Hoa An, Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, Chairman of the Provincial People's Council, Dao Bao Minh, Member of the Provincial Party Committee Standing Board, Head of the Provincial Party Committee's Internal Affairs Committee, Bui Thanh Toan, Member of the Provincial Party Committee Standing Board, Head of the Provincial Party Committee's Propaganda Department, representatives of the Party Building Committees of the Provincial Party Committee, the Provincial Fatherland Front Committee, the Provincial People's Council Committees, the Standing Committees of the District Party Committees; leaders of relevant departments, branches and units; representatives of the leaders of the units accompanying the program, youth union members and especially the presence of representatives of the families and relatives of 50 Heroic Martyrs in the province.

The nearly 2-hour program “Tuoi Tre Phu Yen – Tribute to Heroes” was filled with quiet moments and many emotions. There were tears shed. But, those were “tears of happiness” of the families and relatives of heroes and martyrs, when they held in their hands the most authentic photos of their fathers, mothers, brothers and sisters who had sacrificed their lives.

Continuing the programs and activities of gratitude and repayment, from June 2024, the Phu Yen Provincial Youth Union in coordination with the Team Lee youth group (in Hanoi ) implemented the program of restoring martyrs' photos in the province. After 1 month of implementation, the Provincial Youth Union and Team Lee group received requests for photo restoration from 56 martyrs' families and successfully restored 63 portraits. Among the portraits, there were special cases where the martyrs had no photos, and their direct relatives were no longer alive. The Provincial Youth Union and members of Team Lee group made efforts to coordinate with the families and relatives to describe in detail every feature of the martyrs to make portraits for the martyrs. For the young people of Team Lee group, each portrait of a martyr that was restored is a touching story.

In addition to restoring photos of martyrs of Phu Yen homeland, towards the 65th anniversary of the twinning of Phu Yen - Hai Duong provinces (January 9, 1960 - January 9, 2025), Phu Yen Provincial Youth Union and Hai Duong Provincial Youth Union have coordinated with Team Lee to restore 10 portraits of heroic martyrs from Hai Duong who sacrificed in Phu Yen. This is a vivid demonstration of the close relationship and good traditions of the Party Committee, government, army, people and young generation of the two provinces.
