The NA Chairman called on the award winners to continue to actively contribute their efforts and intelligence in the future.

He urged the Ho Chi Minh Communist Youth Union (HCMU) Central Committee to create conditions for the Vu A Dinh Scholarship Fund to strongly spread the spirit of solidarity, sharing, and mutual assistance, thus promptly supporting and promoting the potential and strengths of people in ethnic minority, mountainous and island areas, contributing to the development of high-quality young human resources serving the country's industrialisation and modernisation process.
