A ceremony was held at a cemetery in Ha Tien town, southern Kien Giang province, on Dec. 20 to bury the remains of 109 Vietnamese volunteer soldiers and experts who had died in Cambodia.

The repatriation and reburial of the remains of Vietnamese volunteer soldiers have demonstrated the Party and State’s tribute to those volunteer soldiers for sacrifices they had made to fulfil their international duties.

The remains were repatriated during the 2009-2010 dry season, raising the number of the remains found in Cambodia and reburied at the Ha Tien cemetery for fallen soldiers to 1,464.
