Dong Anh district is known for the “Uncle Ho banyan tree”, the second banyan tree that Uncle Ho planted after launching the Tree Planting Festival. The banyan tree that Uncle Ho planted during the first Tree Planting Festival was in Bay Mau Park, later Thong Nhat Park.

The Prime Minister reiterated Uncle Ho's teaching: "Spring is the season for tree planting/Making the country more and more springy" and said that this year, we celebrate the 50th anniversary of implementing President Ho's testament, so the tree planting campaign has become a nationwide movement.

"We all want to bring a green, clean, beautiful living environment to people in all regions of the country and strictly implement the policy of not trading the economy for the environment. We are even more deeply imbued with Uncle Ho's teachings, making every effort to fulfill his will. The Government is working with localities across the country to actively plant forests, develop and protect forests, striving to achieve the target of forest coverage by 2020 of at least 42%, making Vietnam a leading center for exporting branded and prestigious planted forest wood in the world, and especially with increasingly high coverage" - the Prime Minister emphasized...

To practically contribute to the response to the Tree Planting Festival to forever remember Uncle Ho launched by the Party and State nationwide, the Prime Minister requested ministries and branches to launch the emulation movement to implement the "Tree Planting Festival" right from the first days of 2019. Develop a specific and practical action plan on afforestation, forest protection and scattered tree planting to green the roads, green houses, cover bare land and hills to create a green landscape and environment.
