State President Truong Tan Sang has sent a letter to Vietnamese children wishing them a merry and joyful Mid Autumn festival.

In his letter, Sang extended his warmest greetings to all Vietnamese children living inside and outside Vietnam as well as foreign children residing in the country.

He told the children that the Party and Government and the entire society have always wanted the best for them and hope that they all achieve outstanding things, both in academics and in physical training.

"I want you to become good nieces and nephews of Uncle Ho and useful citizens of society," said President Sang.

He wished them to be on a par with their friends in all five continents as the late President Ho Chi Minh wished when he was alive.

President Truong Tan Sang was full of praise for their achievements in both studying and life, particularly those living in remote regions.

"May your dreams become a reality," said Sang.

The Mid Autumn festival will take place on September 30.
