President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. began the second day of his State Visit to the Socialist Republic of Vietnam by offering a wreath at the Monument of National Heroes and Martrys in Hanoi.

Constructed in 1993 in a fusion of traditional Vietnamese and modern architecture, the memorial honors the Vietnamese men and women who died fighting for their country’s liberation and national freedom.

First Lady Louise Araneta Marcos and members of the Philippine delegation accompanied President Marcos Jr. in the wreath-laying ceremony.
