The Party chief called attention to building forces with political firmness and professionalism, adding that Military Region 4 must heed mass mobilization and external relations, contributing to strengthening special solidarity with Laos.

Member of the Party Central Committee and Commander of Military Region 4, Lieut. Gen. Nguyen Tan Cuong said the Military Region 4’s Party Organization and staff have seriously abided by resolutions and directives of the Party Central Committee, the Politburo, the Central Military Commission and the Ministry of National Defense, particularly the resolution of the 12th National Party Congress and another of the eighth plenum of the 11th Party Central Committee on national protection strategy in the new context.

In accordance with the resolution of the fourth plenum of the 12th Party Central Committee and the Politburo’s Directive No.05, the Party Organization conducted criticism and self-criticism, thereby devising measures to fight political and ideological degradation, “self-evolution” and “self-transformation” phenomena, he said.

He added that the staff also actively responded to the campaign “Studying and following morals and lifestyle of Ho Chi Minh”. 

To cope with natural disasters and tropical low pressure, the Military Region 4 Command deployed tens of thousands of officers and soldiers for search and rescue and helped local residents stabilize their lives. It also offered free health check-ups and medicines and worked closely with Lao localities and units to safeguard the shared borderline, he added.

In the morning the same day, the leader offered incense and paid floral tribute to late President Ho Chi Minh at Kim Lien relic site, visited King Mai Hac De Temple in Nam Dan district and Emperor Quang Trung Temple atop Dung Quyet mountain.
