He affirmed that along with performing political tasks as the organ of the Central Military Commission and Vietnamese Ministry of National Defense and the voice of the armed forces and people, over the past years, the newspaper has cooperated with organizations, businesses, and benefactors to conduct social activities in localities across the country.
