At the event in Vi Thanh city, the top legislator said that over 80 years of development, the VPA has established the tradition of loyalty to the Party, filial piety to the people, and readiness to combat and sacrifice for the Fatherland’s freedom and for socialism, fulfilling every duty, surmounting every difficulty, and defeating every enemy.

He lauded Hau Giang’s development and noted that at the recent 7th and 8th sessions, the NA adopted and revised many important laws, including three related to national defence.

Man asked the province to continue implementing the Party’s and NA’s resolutions on caring for the local military force, from provincial to communal levels, so that the force is a truly elite, clean, and strong one meeting national construction and safeguarding requirements in the new context.

The NA leader told officers and soldiers of the Hau Giang Military Command to uphold the virtues of “Uncle Ho’s soldiers”, raise their revolutionary alertness to uncover plots and ruses of hostile forces, and advise the Party and State about measures for thwarting those plots early and from afar so as to properly perform the task of national construction and safeguarding.

In addition, the provincial administration and the command should pay due attention to caring for families of the officers and soldiers with disadvantages, and push ahead with building an elite and modern force capable of meeting new requirements in the current situation to protect the Fatherland.

On this occasion, he presented gifts to 20 personnel of the Military Command and 30 war veterans with disadvantages.
