The building with the painted national flag is prominently located at the entrance of Highway base, making it easily visible from the road leading to the base. This symbol of the national flag serves as a warm greeting to international friends visiting the Vietnamese engineering unit’s base and as an assertion of national pride by the peacekeepers on duty in Abyei.
As part of the National Day celebration, the unit also handed over a repaired boat to the residents of Mijak village, helping the local community improve their transportation. To date, Vietnam’s Engineering Company Rotation 2 has repaired four damaged boats for Mijak village community.
