Firmly advancing under the Party's glorious flag 

Eighty years ago today the Communist Party of Vietnam came into being, making it an extremely important historical event, a great turning-point in Vietnam’s revolutionary history and a brilliant landmark on the development road of the Vietnamese nation.

Eighty years have gone by, the Party’s colours radiant as the rising sun has shown the road to the Vietnamese people, to the Vietnamese revolution to overcome innumerable difficulties and challenges so as to firmly advance to win the great victories

It is the victory of the 1945 August Revolution and the establishment of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam. This is the general result of the revolutionary movement that had continuously developed in 15 years after the founding of the Communist Party of Vietnam. The colonialist, semi-feudalist regime had been eradicated in Vietnam, a new era was ushered in, the era of national independence in close association with socialism.

It is the glorious victory of the resistance war to liberate the country and defend the Fatherland, to defeat colonialism, old and new, thus completing the people’s democratic national revolution, implementing the national reunification, taking the whole country to socialism, making an important contribution to the struggle of the world’s people, for peace, national independence, democracy and social progress.

It is the victory of the renewal cause for the past 25 years. Amid innumerable challenges in which all the war consequences had to be overcome and at the same time the encirclement and embargo had to be broken, the Communist Party of Vietnam has led the Vietnamese people to rebuild the country and protect national sovereignty. With its revolutionary and scientific nature, its firm standing on the corner-stone of Marxism-Leninism and Ho Chi Minh’s Thought and its belief in the strength and will power of the whole nation, the Party has led the Vietnamese people to carry out the renewal work for the goal of prosperous people, powerful country, equal, democratic and civilised society and the great successes of historic significance have been recorded.

To celebrate the 80th founding anniversary of the Communist Party of Vietnam, we are all the more proud of the nation, a heroic, intelligent and creative nation, of the Communist Party of Vietnam founded, led and trained by President Ho Chi Minh. With our profound gratitude, we wish to express our sincere reverence to President Ho Chi Minh, the leaders of the Party, the heroes, martyrs, compatriots and comrades who had wholeheartedly fought and sacrificed for independence and freedom of the Fatherland, for socialism and for the people’s prosperous and happy life.

To celebrate the 80th founding anniversary of the Communist Party of Vietnam, the whole nation is enthusiastically preparing to welcome the upcoming Lunar New Year  (the Year of the Tiger). The year 2010 will witness a lot of great national holidays that are closely associated with the glorious historical pages of the nation, the Party and esteemed Uncle Ho. With the great pride in the heroic nation, the glorious Party and great President Ho Chi Minh, the entire Party, people and army pledge to unite to overcome all the difficulties and challenges to take the country to advance rapidly and firmly on the road of industrialisation and modernisation, thus building and defending the socialist homeland of Vietnam.
