Communist Party of Vietnam membership badge ceremonies

In early November 2026, Vietnamese officials conducted ceremonies to honor long-term members of the Communist Party of Vietnam with membership badges.

In Ho Chi Minh City, leaders including Politburo member Tran Luu Quang and Deputy Secretary Nguyen Phuoc Loc visited elderly members to present 80-year badges. These visits recognized individuals such as Colonel Hoang Hong Ban, a 99-year-old former military intelligence officer, and Vu Thuy Ngoc.

In Hanoi, General Secretary and President To Lam attended a ceremony where the Hanoi Party Committee awarded badges to over 28,000 members with at least 30 years of service. This included specific honors for members with 70, 75, and 80 years of service. Similar honors were distributed in Gia Lai Province, where 102 members received badges for service ranging from 30 to 65 years.

Additional regional ceremonies expanded the recognition of veteran members. In Thai Nguyen, General Phan Van Giang visited the homes of elderly members, including 102-year-old Nguyen Duc Chung and 97-year-old La Thi Hoa, to present 80-year badges. In Phu Tho, 181 members received recognition for their service. In Hung Yen, Minister of Public Security Luong Tam Quang presented 80-year badges to five veteran members.
