(Baonghean.vn) - Although the project construction plan was approved in 2016 and started more than 3 years ago, the project of Uncle Ho's Memorial Site visiting Dong Hieu is still stuck in land clearance issues and cannot continue to be implemented.
On June 29, 2016, the Provincial People's Committee issued Decision No. 3051/QD.UBND-XD approving the detailed construction planning at a scale of 1/500 for the Memorial Area of Uncle Ho's visit to Dong Hieu. On October 7, 2016, Decision No. 4855/QD-UBND was issued approving this construction investment project. This is a very meaningful project for the land of Phu Quy in general, and Dong Hieu Farm in particular, which was once the "flagship" in agricultural production of the block of state-owned farms in the socialist North and was visited by Uncle Ho on December 10, 1961.

However, up to now, this project is still very messy. In the photo, paving stone blocks are being gathered in the project area covered with grass.

According to the decision, this project will expire in 2024. Photo: Tien DongThe memorial house has been built but to this day there is still no... stele. The surroundings are also not completed and overgrown with weeds.

However, many people think that seeing this flower platform placed in the space of a square with a system of memorial works of more than 10 hectares is not appropriate and does not fully express the meaning of the event of Uncle Ho visiting Dong Hieu Farm.
