According to local leaders, Dong Nai was one of the fierce battlefields in wartime where thousands of people laid down their lives to protect the independence and freedom of the Fatherland. Nowadays, many organisations and individuals in Dong Nai have made excellent achievements in the national construction and development cause.
Cao Tien Dung, Chairman of the provincial People's Committee, said Dong Nai was one of the three localities most affected by the COVID-19 pandemic last year, and highlighted efforts and contributions of those who helped take care of people and workers in the COVID-19 fight, especially frontline forces including medical workers, police and army forces.
He expressed his hope that the honoured organisations and individuals will continue to do more, deserving to be typical contributors in their agencies and organisations.
