Officials in border communes of Gia Lai province disseminate information and guiding people on the methods and procedures of voting. |
Ro Lan Jok, an elder in Son village of Ia Nan commune, said he has regularly raised the topic during village meetings after receiving information from local authorities, helping residents better understand their rights and duties as voters.
According to him, border residents are particularly concerned about selecting deputies to the People’s Council, as these representatives directly voice the opinions and aspirations of people at the grassroots level. They therefore hope to elect responsible individuals who understand local customs and traditions and genuinely care about the livelihoods of residents, thereby helping communities promote economic development and achieve stable living conditions.
Similarly, village elder Ro Mah Bloi of Triel village in Ia Pnon commune said he often encourages villagers to carefully learn about candidates before casting their votes. According to him, participating in elections is both a right and a responsibility in building stronger grassroots governance.

Lieutenant Colonel Le Tuan Anh, head of the Ia Nan Border Guard Station, said border guard officers and soldiers also visit households directly to inform residents about the election and encourage their participation.
From the remote border villages safeguarding the nation’s frontier, each ballot cast represents not only the people’s democratic right but also their trust in elected representatives. Voters in Gia Lai’s border communes showed their hope that elected deputies to the People’s Councils will listen to the people and work alongside them to promote socio-economic development, maintain national defense and security, and build a stronger and more prosperous border region.
