Nearly 50 years have passed since the historic day of April 30, 1975, yet the echoes of the great victory\u2014the liberation of the South and national reunification\u2014continue to resonate in the hearts of the Vietnamese people. This was not only a glorious milestone in the history of building and defending the nation, but also an enduring symbol of patriotism, the aspiration for peace, an indomitable will, and the wise leadership of the Communist Party of Vietnam.<\/em><\/p>\n

April 30, 1975 brought an end to a dark period of suffering and division, opening a new era of independence, reunification, and territorial integrity, and setting the entire country on the path toward building socialism. This achievement was made possible by generations who gave their lives, carrying forward our nation’s tradition of resilience and indomitable spirit over thousands of years of history.<\/p>\n

In 2025, the entire Party, people, and armed forces solemnly commemorate the 50th anniversary of the liberation of the South and national reunification. This is an occasion to revisit our heroic history and to remember and express profound gratitude to fallen heroes, Vietnamese Heroic Mothers, wounded and sick veterans, and those who rendered meritorious service to the revolution\u2014people who spared neither blood nor life and fought courageously for the independence and freedom of the Fatherland.<\/p>\n

Over the past 50 years, Vietnam has undergone a profound transformation. From the ruins of war, our people have gradually rebuilt their homeland, advanced with resolve, and achieved tremendous results of historic significance in every field: the economy, culture, society, national defense, security, and foreign affairs. Vietnam today is a peaceful, stable, and developing country that is increasingly affirming its firm standing on the world stage.<\/p>\n

These achievements are vivid testimony to the strength of national unity, the Party’s sound leadership, and the resilience of a nation that has endured numerous wars yet has stood firm, recovered, and developed.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The 50th anniversary of the liberation of the South and national reunification is not only an occasion to revisit our heroic history, but also a time to kindle national pride and strengthen faith in revolutionary ideals and in the path chosen by the Party, Uncle Ho, and our people.<\/p>\n

This is also an occasion for today’s younger generation to recognize more clearly their responsibilities: to safeguard independence and freedom, carry forward the revolutionary cause, and build a strong, civilized, and modern country. In an era of globalization, with great opportunities accompanied by many unprecedented challenges, the mission of today’s generation is to live up to our heroic tradition, pursue innovation and creativity, advance science and technology, master knowledge, preserve cultural identity, and firmly safeguard national sovereignty and interests.<\/p>\n

Proud of the historic victory of April 30 and profoundly grateful for the immense sacrifices of preceding generations, we appreciate the value of peace all the more deeply and have even greater confidence in the path ahead. The 50th anniversary of the liberation of the South and national reunification also reminds every Vietnamese person always to take to heart the words: \u201cNothing is more precious than independence and freedom.\u201d<\/p>\n

More than ever, the entire Party, people, and armed forces must unite as one, uphold our glorious traditions, advance industrialization, modernization, innovation, and creativity, develop a green and sustainable economy, and remain determined to build a strong, prosperous, and happy Vietnam that stands shoulder to shoulder with the great powers across the five continents, as our beloved Uncle Ho always wished.<\/p>\n
