On the day of moving into new houses, flood victims in Gia Lai receive many practical and valuable gifts by local agencies and units. |
Le Thi Hoa’s new house is one of 43 houses handed over in the first phase. The construction was directly carried out by troops by Defensive Area Command Region 6 - An Nhon Dong, and completed after 25 days and nights. The house has a solid structure, including a living room, bedroom, kitchen, and auxiliary works, with a total material cost of approximately VND 170 million.
Emotional on the day of receiving the new house, Le Thi Hoa said that Storm Kalmaegi, the 13th storm hitting Vietnam in 2025, completely destroyed her family’s old house. Thanks to the concern of the Party, State, local authorities, benefactors, and the dedication of officers and soldiers in transporting materials and building the house, they now have a solid home to welcome the Lunar New Year 2026.

According to Senior Colonel Mai Kim Binh, Political Commissar of the Gia Lai provincial Military Command, along with the 43 houses handed over in phase 1, the remaining 57 houses in the province are expected to be completed and handed over simultaneously on January 10.
Implementing “Quang Trung Campaign,” the Party Committee and Command of Military Region 5 has developed a plan to mobilize forces to support local people in building 590 new houses and repairing 334 houses heavily damaged by floods in different provinces and cities. The military is identified as the core force, coordinating closely with local Party committees and authorities to implement the plan, with the determination to help residents stabilize their lives soon.
Gen. Trong emphasized that officers and soldiers of the military region’s units have seriously grasped the direction of the Government and the plan of the Military Region Command, promoted a high sense of responsibility, worked urgently, overcame current difficulties, strictly abode by the State laws, military discipline, and mass mobilization regulations, ensured absolute safety for personnel and vehicles, and completed the tasks ahead of schedule.
The new houses handed over before the Lunar New Year 2026 have further added faith and motivation for local people in disaster-hit areas to soon stabilize their lives, thereby continuing to affirm the role, responsibility, and image of Uncle Ho’s soldiers in the heart of people in Military Region 5.
