At the meeting, Minister Dao Ngoc Dung summarized that this is an important event, not only for the industry but also for the country and the people, taking place on the occasion of the 80th anniversary of President Ho Chi Minh reading the Declaration of Independence, giving birth to the Democratic Republic of Vietnam, now the Socialist Republic of Vietnam. Therefore, the organization work needs to be carried out with high responsibility, arousing confidence and pride in the revolutionary history of the industry, while educating the tradition for current and future generations.

The Minister emphasized the spirit of direction, activities need to be organized practically, effectively, safely and economically, leaving a deep impression on the industry and society. At the same time, events must have strong influence, inspiring the community and society.

He noted that to ensure the successful organization of this special anniversary series of activities, there are 8 key tasks that need to be carried out, instead of 7 tasks as originally planned. The activities require the participation of all cadres and party members in the industry with a wide scope of implementation across the country.

One of the outstanding activities is the program to honor "Bright examples for the community". The program is scheduled to be held on March 25, 2025, the Social Work Day. The Minister requested the units to coordinate closely to select and honor typical examples that are truly worthy and have a strong influence.

The Ministry's leaders also noted that the organization of the Patriotic Emulation Congress should be combined with the 80th Anniversary of the Industry into one program, with a scale of about 500 participants. On this occasion, the industry will also honor and reward collectives and individuals with outstanding achievements.

Regarding the work of building historical documents, the Minister assigned the preparation of 3 important contents: a documentary film about the industry, a history - events book and a photo book. The film focuses on the 80-year history and highlights of the past 10 years. The history book will emphasize the important milestones and social policies of the industry until 2030, with a vision to 2045.
