The fencing is made from 127 Y-shaped, 126 I-shaped columns and one 5-meter wide gate. It lies about 500km away from the unit’s position on the border between South Sudan and Sudan. The observation station  is located here to monitor how concerned parties observe peace agreements along the border.

Thanks to the highest responsibility and smoothly collaboration between the Vietnamese engineering unit and relevant agencies of UNISFA, the work was completed six days ahead of the initial plan with absolute safety for people and vehicles.

According to Senior Colonel Mac Duc Trong, Commanding Officer  of Vietnam’s Engineering Company Rotation 1, the  task force this time consisted of 17 officers, commanded by Captain Nguyen Van Khai, Leader of the Construction Engineering Detachment No.1. The unit has made good preparations in logistics and technical affairs, ensuring sufficient provision of tools and equipment, he added.

An observation station of UNISFA is placed here to monitor how concerned parties observe peace agreements along the border.

According to Senior Colonel Trong, the whole unit has promoted solidarity, unity, responsibility, independence, and creativeness to fulfill its assigned mission.
