The project holder was the ministry’s Military Strategy Institute, with Senior Lieutenant General Nguyen Chi Vinh, Deputy Minister of National Defence, as the project manager.

After listening to a report from the project’s head and critical analysis from the council’s members, Chairman of the Council Senior Lieutenant General Do Ba Ty, Chief of the General Staff of the Vietnam People’s Army cum Deputy Minister of National Defence, highly appreciated its specialization and applicability, based on Marxism – Leninism and Ho Chi Minh ideology.
