In a letter to Catholic and Protestant dignitaries and followers, the provincial leaders highlighted great efforts made by the Catholics and Protestants in implementing the Party and State’s policies, actively getting involved in patriotic emulations and campaigns launched by the Viet Nam Fatherland Front, contributing to fulfilling the province’s key tasks including curbing inflation and ensuring social security and a GDP growth rate of 15.5 per cent in 2008, reducing the rate of poor households to 4.14 per cent and improving living standards of local people in Dong Nai.
The provincial leaders hailed the Church’s active contributions to the national construction in line with its regulations and charter, saying these also marked the efforts made by the Church and its followers in the course of serving God for the sake of the nation.
The provincial leaders also expressed their belief that Jesus’ followers would continue promoting the tradition of patriotism, and make further practical contributions to building a strong great national unity bloc in the process of national construction and defense for the sake of a rich people, a strong country and a fair, democratic and civilized society. They also called Catholic and Protestant dignitaries and followers to actively participate in the movement “studying and following President Ho Chi Minh’s moral examples” and actively engage in patriotic emulations, contributing to fulfill the Resolution of the 8th provincial Party Committee Congress.
