HÀ NỘI — Party General Secretary and President Nguyễn Phú Trọng has sent a letter to all children in Việt Nam and Vietnamese children overseas, sharing joy with them on the traditional Mid-Autumn Festival.

Extending his best wishes to the children, the top leader said he is happy to see them study hard and adapt to new methods to stay safe in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, with many of them winning prizes at international and national competitions, bringing honour to the country and fostering hope in young generations who are future owners of the country.

“The Party, State, schools, families and society have always been caring for and creating the best conditions for children to grow up in a safe and healthy environment, as well as have all their rights ensured,” the leader wrote.

He expressed his wish that the children continue to follow the teachings of President Hồ Chí Minh, respect grandparents, parents and teachers, help those in disadvantaged circumstances and study well to contribute to building the country when they grow up.

The leader also wished all children a joyful, safe and meaningful Mid-Autumn festival.

Mid-Autumn Festival, celebrated on the 15th day of the eighth month on the lunar calendar, which falls on October 1 this year, is a festival for children in Việt Nam. Many activities are held for children on this day, including gatherings to decorate fruit trays, lantern parades, lion dances, and gift-giving. — VNS
