Action campaign for AO victims launched

(VOV - 10/6/2011) - The Viet Nam Fatherland Front Central Committee (VFFCC) launched an action campaign on June 10 for victims of Agent Orange/ dioxin with the participation of Truong Tan Sang, Politburo member and permanent member of the Party Central Committee Secretariat.

 

The campaign calls for ministries, agencies, organizations, and people from all walks of life to practice traditional compassion and provide AO victims with both material and spiritual support.

Addressing the launch ceremony, Mr. Sang highlighted the VFFCC’s efforts to help AO victims overcome their difficulties for a better life.

Although both the Party and State have created numerous policies to relieve the victims’ hardship and international friends have also joined hands to help them, their life still remains very difficult.

It is high time there was an in-depth analysis of the damage the US military caused to the environment and Vietnamese people 50 years ago, he said.

He expressed his hopes that the authorities, organizations, Vietnamese people and international friends will continue helping AO victims in their struggle for justice.

Mr. Sang also presented gifts to the families of 10 AO victims at the ceremony.

The action campaign, under the direction of the Party Politburo, will last until August 10.
