Last year, MR7 studied and effectively carried out the Party’s and State’s guidelines, well grasped the situation and timely gave advice to the Central Military Commission and the Ministry of National Defense to deal with negative developments or emerging issues, and maintain political security and social order and safety.
Moreover, it proactively cooperated with the local Party committee, authorities, and relevant forces to build whole people’s defense, firmly combine the whole people’s defense posture with people’s security; promoted defense external relations and uphold leadership and combat strength of Party committees and Party cells at all levels.
This year, MR7 has organized delegations to pay Tet visits to some units and localities in border areas, on islands, and to revolution contributors.
Speaking highly of the unit’s outstanding achievements over the past year, the President asked it to closely watch local developments, especially in border areas and on islands; improve its ability of forecasting and strategic staff work; pay due attention to building a comprehensively strong armed force; and enhance training quality and military regulation observation.
The President also tasked MR7’s Command to well implement mass mobilization work, strengthen military-civilian solidarity, be actively engaged in gratitude activities, poverty reduction and hunger elimination, natural disaster prevention and control, search and rescue, deepen ties with the Royal Cambodian Armed Forces, contributing to building a border of peace, stability, friendship, cooperation and development.
