Chairman
of the provincial People’s Committe Nguyen Van Quang presents certificates of
merit to organisations and individuals with outstanding achievements.
In performing the task in promoting people-army solidarity in the
two years 2016 and 2017, the local armed forces and military units stationed in
the province joined hands with local Party committees and authorities at all
levels to build infrastructure, contributing to provincial socio-economic
development, poverty alleviation and the national target programme on building
new-style rural areas. They also participated in the implementation of social
policies for families of military personnel, natural disaster prevention and
relief work and forest fire fighting.
The local armed forces and military units stationed in the
province mobilised more than 51,000 working days to build, repair and upgrade
nearly 150km of concretised roads and over 20km of stoned roads and dredged tens
of thousands metres of in-field canals. They also presented more than 3 billion
VND (nearly 132,000 USD) to build 15 houses of friendship and 34 houses of
gratitude, while providing free medical checkups, health counselling and
medicine for nearly 7,000 poor people and policy beneficiaries at a total cost
of over 1 billion VND (44,000 USD).
Notably, during the heavy rain and flooding in October 2017, the
armed forces and military units in the province deployed more than 2,000
officers and hundreds of vehicles to take part in search and rescue efforts.
They evacuated over 1,000 households from dangerous areas and set up 56 tents
as temporary shelters for local residents, promptly providing necessities for
them with a motto "not to leave people hungry, cold and without shelter during
rains and flooding”.
Those actions have consolidated people’s trust of the Communist
Party of Vietnam and the People’s Army, along with building a safe region, strengthening
defence in the province. They also deepened the unity between local people and the
army and upheld the good image of "Uncle Ho’s soldiers” in the new era, winning
trust of local authorities and people.
On the occasion, the provincial People’s Committee presented
certificates of merit to five organisations and 12 individuals with outstanding
performance in the work for people and army solidarity in 2016-2017./.
