The 32x43 mm stamp, designed by artist To Minh Trang from the Viet Nam Post Corporation, features portrait of late President Ho Chi Minh in the Party banner which reflects the official subject of the congress. Underneath are bright-colored flowers symbolizing Viet Nam’s notable achievements in recent years.

The stamp also highlighted the main contents of the12th National Congress: promoting the strength of the whole people and socialist democracy; stepping up reform comprehensively and synchronously; firmly safeguarding the nation and maintaining a peaceful and stable environment; and striving to soon turn Viet Nam into a modern industrialized country.

The 12th National Congress of the CPV will take place in Ha Noi from January 20 to 28.
