At the event, Labor Hero and Distinguished Teacher Le Cong Co, DTU Chairman, said: “On this special day, we all remember our beloved Uncle Ho, who founded the Democratic Republic of Vietnam and the Communist Party. He dedicated his life to the nation and the people. Therefore, the generation of students born and raised in peace must strive to fulfill Uncle Ho's wishes: 'As long as there are mountains, rivers, and people, we will build a better future after defeating the Americans!' DTU, with this aspiration, hopes that students will be able to serve society and the country after graduating.”
