At present, provinces and participating units are urgently accelerating construction progress, striving to complete housing construction for residents by January 15, helping people stabilise their lives while also recording achievements to welcome the 14th National Party Congress.
A command from the heart
The “Quang Trung Campaign” has been implemented across the central provinces, with not only local forces involved but also the active participation of units from the Ministry of National Defence, the Ministry of Public Security, and Military Region 5, as well as a number of enterprises, with a spirit of urgency. The units participating in the campaign are driven not only by the highest sense of responsibility but also by a heartfelt command towards the people.
Lieutenant General Le Ngoc Hai, Commander of Military Region 5, said that in implementing the “Quang Trung Campaign”, Military Region 5 has supported the construction of 590 newly built houses that had collapsed and the repair of 334 severely damaged houses across the central provinces and cities.
Over the past month, units of the Ministry of National Defence and Military Region 5 have mobilised more than 286,000 personnel deployments and 7,980 deployments of various types of vehicles, coordinating with local Party committees and authorities to commence the construction of 590 new houses and the repair of 334 severely damaged houses.
With a high spirit of determination and resolve among officers and soldiers, undeterred by sunshine or rain, working day and night including weekends and holidays, to date 100% of house repairs have been completed and 155 out of 590 newly built houses have been finished. Meanwhile, more than 76 km of irrigation canals and fields have been restored for localities. On January 4, the Military Region coordinated with the People’s Committees in the provinces of Dak Lak, Gia Lai, Khanh Hoa, and Quang Ngai, as well as Da Nang City to hold the first-phase inauguration and handover ceremony, delivering 155 houses to residents for use.
Dak Lak is the locality with a relatively large number of houses requiring repair and reconstruction, including 892 houses needing major repairs and 606 houses to be newly built.
As of January 6, the entire province has completed 100% of house repairs and constructed 362 new houses, 311 of which have been handed over, while the remaining houses have achieved a workload completion rate of 65% or higher.
In Gia Lai Province, to date more than 27,500 houses have been repaired and 470 out of 674 new houses have been completed, reaching over 70%. Participating in the campaign, the Ministry of Public Security launched the “15 days and nights of rapid action” campaign to build houses for the people of Gia Lai.
After nearly one month of mobilisation, the Gia Lai Public Security, together with reinforced forces, have inaugurated and handed over 29 out of 87 houses, while the remaining 58 houses have reached more than 80% construction progress.
Major General Nguyen Hong Nguyen, Deputy Chief of the Office of the Ministry of Public Security, affirmed: “This is a deeply humane campaign, clearly demonstrating the responsibility of the police force in serving the people.”
In Khanh Hoa Province, the “Quang Trung Campaign” has been implemented with a spirit of urgency and determination, mobilising the highest level of resources from the provincial military command, Naval Region 4, provincial Public Security, and military units stationed in the area.
As of January 6, the province has completed repairs to 290 houses, completed construction of 72 new houses, and has 17 houses under construction, reaching approximately 95% of the total workload. The work is expected to be completed before January 12 to hand over to residents ahead of the 2026 Lunar New Year.
In Da Nang City, after more than one month of mobilisation to implement the campaign, the entire city has completed repairs to 361 houses, reaching 100% of the plan, and completed construction of 105 out of 144 new houses, reaching 73% of the plan; the remaining 39 houses have now achieved over 70% of construction volume and are being accelerated, with completion expected before January 15.
Homes imbued with deep military–civilian solidarity
As one of the households that received a new house on January 4, looking at her spacious new home, Le Thi Cuc from Phu Dien Trong Hamlet, Hoa Thinh Commune, Dak Lak Province, was overcome with emotion: “After the flood, our house collapsed and my family was left with nothing, not knowing where to turn. Then, with the support of the Party, the State, and officers and soldiers of Military Region 5 who came to help clear debris and build the house, like a miracle, after just one month my family was able to move into a new home. I am deeply grateful to the Party, the State, and the soldiers.”
The family of 90-year-old To Thi Sua in Chanh Hoi Hamlet, Ngo May Commune, Gia Lai Province, was assigned the construction of a new single-storey house with an area of 55 m2 and a “three-solid” structure (solid foundation, solid frame, solid roof) by Engineering Brigade 7.
Sua is a revolution contributor and lives with her daughter who has a disability. Their house collapsed completely after the floods. Cao Van Muoi, Sua’s son, emotionally recounted: “During the 15 days of house construction, regardless of sunshine or rain, the soldiers spared no effort and worked even through the night. We are extremely grateful.”
Meanwhile, Cao Thi Muoi, an ethnic Raglai resident in Dong Khanh Son Commune, Khanh Hoa Province, shared emotionally: “When we were informed by the local authorities that the Khanh Hoa Provincial Public Security would support the construction of a new house for our family, everyone was overjoyed, and many nights we could not sleep. The new house will give us more trust and motivation to overcome difficulties.”
For the couple Alang Dich in A Teep Hamlet, A Vuong Commune, Da Nang City, less than one month after December 25, 2025, when all their property was swept away by floods, the family was happily reunited in a solid new house built under the leadership of the Da Nang City Police. This was also the first home handed over under the “Quang Trung Campaign” in Da Nang.
Implementing the direction of the Prime Minister, Ta Anh Tuan, Chairman of the Dak Lak Provincial People’s Committee, affirmed: “With the spirit of overcoming sunshine and rain, working through days off, and operating in ‘three shifts, four teams’, the province is determined to carry out the tasks on schedule as set by the Prime Minister.”
Nguyen Tuan Thanh, Standing Vice Chairman of the Gia Lai Provincial People’s Committee, said that in identifying the “Quang Trung Campaign” as a key political task with profound humanitarian significance, the Gia Lai Provincial People’s Committee has issued an urgent directive requiring localities to be determined to complete the campaign before January 15.
Colonel Nguyen Xuan Hoang, Deputy Director of Da Nang City Public Security, shared that on the first days of the 2026 New Year, police units participating in the “Quang Trung Campaign” did not take holidays but concentrated manpower to enter the final sprint phase. To date, 237 out of 271 houses undertaken by the city public security have been completed, and the remaining 34 houses will continue to be finalised and handed over to residents in the coming days.
