Especially, in this year, the unit also mobilized over 8,000 troops with vehicles to support flood-hit people and conduct search and rescue missions in response to natural disasters. Meanwhile, COVID-19 prevention and control work has been effectively and strictly carried out in the region.
Addressing the event, General Chiem highly appreciated the task performance of MR5 while requesting them to continue embracing directives and resolutions of the Party, State, CMC, and MND in defense-security tasks.
In addition, the unit should also coordinate with the local authorities to grasp local situations to be ready under any circumstances, maintain combat readiness, and attach importance to the building of regularity and observance of military discipline.
