The National Assembly Chairman said that the construction of the Cuba - Vietnam Special Friendship School for disabled children is a vivid demonstration of the noble idea and heart of leader Fidel Castro towards disabled children.

The National Assembly Chairman respectfully thanked the local government for giving this very meaningful school the very special name of Cuba - Vietnam Special Friendship School: "During his lifetime, beloved President Ho Chi Minh also said: "Children are like buds on a branch", for children with disabilities, they must be given the utmost attention, love, cherish, nurture and care by the Party Committee and government from the central to local levels. We also know that models for schools for the disabled like this are still organized in many localities in Cuba and these models are also popular models in many localities in Vietnam today, demonstrating the very noble humanity and the good nature of our regime of "loving others as you love yourself" and "leaving no one behind".

The National Assembly Chairman expressed his impression that the school was invested in and equipped very synchronously with many functions to help disabled children reduce their inferiority complex and self-confidence, and confidently strive to succeed in life and in their studies.

The National Assembly Chairman shared that through the children's special performances, especially through their smiles and eyes, it was shown that the children had been nurtured, cared for and educated very thoughtfully and that the teachers here had carried out very noble missions, not only as teachers, but also as kind mothers and doctors who regularly nurtured and cared for the children.
