The President and the Foreign Minister of Vietnam authorized the Ambassador of Viet Nam to Bangladesh, Pham Viet Chien, to hand out these noble awards to the 3 awardees on their behalf.
Speaking at the Ceremony, the Ambassador expressed warmest thanks to the awardees for devoting hard efforts to their works, as well as sharing sincere thoughts and nice sentiments towards the Vietnamese nation, especially President Ho Chi Minh.
