Trinh handed over a letter of greetings from VFFCC President Nguyen Thien Nhan to Buddhist dignitaries, monks and nuns at home and abroad on the celebration.
He wished local Buddhist followers a happy festive season, noting his hope that they will join hands in building a strong national unity bloc.
The official lauded local Buddhist dignitaries and followers for their timely support of local fishermen who are affected by the recent mass fish deaths.
