The province has consistently prioritized implementing policies for national contributors and social welfare.

During the meeting, Senior Colonel Doan Quang Hoa extended greetings and presented gifts from the Ministry of National Defense to the delegates. He also highlighted significant achievements in policies concerning the military troops and their families. Recently, the Central Military Commission and the Ministry of National Defense have directed the whole-military units to pro-actively collaborate with central agencies and local authorities to propose and promptly supplement regulations on policies for the families of martyrs and national contributors. Efforts in searching for, gathering, and identifying remains of martyrs have been vigorously and systematically carried out both domestically and internationally.

The "Gratitude movement" has been closely managed and implemented by the Party committees and chains-of-command across military units, mobilizing numerous resources to care for national contributors. The military has also actively proposed and executed policies for participants in the struggle for national liberation and protection and those involved in international missions.

In 2024, in celebration of the 80th founding anniversary of the Vietnam People's Army and the 35th anniversary of the Whole-people Defense Festive Day, the Ministry of National Defense will organize various gratitude activities, including offering flowers and incense, visiting war cemeteries, and presenting gifts to those with significant contribution to the national resistance wars. Additionally, visits will be made and gifts will be presented to wounded and sick soldiers and national contributors across the country.
