Under the leadership of Steering Board 35, military press and media agencies, particularly the People’s Army Newspaper, in collaboration with centrally-run and local press and media agencies increased news coverage with creative dissemination forms and contents to orient public opinion toward correct information and right views on major political and social issues, contributing to firmly protecting the Party's ideological basis in the military and society as a whole.

Regarding the missions for the remaining months of the year, Steering Board 35 will continue embracing and implementing Resolution No. 35-NQ/TW of the Politburo to safeguard the Party’s ideological foundation and combat wrongful viewpoints of hostile forces in the current context in line with the implementation of the Resolution of the 13th National Party Congress.

Furthermore, the conference highlighted the implementation of military and defense tasks and the movement “Studying and Following President Ho Chi Minh’s Thoughts, Morals and Lifestyle” in combination with the campaign “Promoting Tradition, Devoting Talent, Deserving to be Uncle Ho’s Soldiers.”

The steering board is also to identify and fight signs of degradation in political ideology, morals and lifestyle, “self-evolution,” and “self-transformation” within the military.
