All living veterans who fought in the Chinese People's War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression will receive recognition in the run-up to China's V-Day celebrations.
A circular jointly issued by the ministries of civil affairs and finance, along with the National Health and Family Planning Commission, told their local offices to deliver consolation money or gifts to veterans.
Activities will also be held to remember the contributions veterans, including those who fought under the Kuomintang Party, made to the nation.
The circular also said veterans should receive medical assistance, should they need it.
Earlier, the ministries of civil affairs and finance released another circular, announcing a one-off allowance of 5,000 yuan, roughly 800 U.S. dollars, to be paid to the war veterans before September.
A series of events have been scheduled to the 70th anniversary of the victory in the Chinese People's War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and World War II. The events will culminate in a parade on Sept. 3 in Beijing.
In a related development, Beijing will display 2.8 million flower pots in preparation for the event. The city has a tradition of arranging flower decorations for festivals and other important occasions.
The flowers will be put at scenic spots, public squares and tourist sites.
Decorations include large flowerbeds, featuring themes of peace and victory, as well as smaller arrangements.
Floral decorations in the shape of victory trumpets will be assembled at Zhongshan Park, near Tian'anmen Square. Olive branches and dove-shaped arrangements will appear at the Summer Palace in the northwestern part of the capital.
