Participating were leaders of the Provincial People's Committee Office, the Department of Labor, Invalids and Social Affairs, and leaders of the Tien Phuoc district.
The delegation came to offer flowers and incense at the Cay Coc Struggle Memorial (Tien Tho commune). This is the place to commemorate more than 330 compatriots and loyal party members who fell in the Cay Coc Struggle in the last days of September 1954 before the heinous crimes of the invading American imperialists and their lackeys who sold out the country.
At the memorial service, the delegation observed a minute of silence and lit incense to express their respect and remembrance of the great sacrifices of compatriots and comrades for the revolutionary cause, of liberating the homeland and the country.
The delegation of the Provincial People's Committee also came to offer flowers and incense at the Dong Trai - Lo Vang Massacre Memorial Site (Tien Cam Commune).

On June 19, 2009, the Provincial People's Committee decided to rank the Dong Trai and Go Vang Massacre Memorial Sites as provincial-level relics.
