Strengthening solidarity and friendship

The emulation clusters of the sea border line, the land border line and the emulation clusters of the agencies of the City Border Guard Command have just simultaneously held a conference to summarize the emulation and commendation work and the Emulation and Reward Movement in 2025. Colonel Dang Ngoc Hieu, Party Secretary, Political Commissar, Chairman of the Emulation and Reward Council of the Hue City Border Guard affirmed: Thoroughly grasping and implementing the emulation theme "Democracy, solidarity, discipline, creativity, determination to win", the agencies and units of the 3 emulation clusters, as well as the entire Hue City Border Guard force, have focused on implementing their tasks very actively and responsibly, creating outstanding results and achievements.

The units have closely coordinated with local Party committees, authorities, and forces stationed in the area to firmly protect sovereignty, security, and order of the border and sea areas. At the same time, they have improved the effectiveness of all aspects of border work, effectively implemented directives, resolutions, regulations, and instructions of the Ministry of National Defense , the Border Guard Command, and the Party Committee and Border Guard Command, and successfully completed assigned political tasks.

The Border Guard at all levels advised and organized the following programs: "Full Moon Festival Night on the Border"; "Spring Border Guard warms the hearts of the villagers"; "Spring Border, islands, Tet warms the love of the army and people"; "Youth Month", "March Border"; "Warm Winter"... Through these meaningful programs and activities, thousands of gifts and scholarships, dozens of bicycles were given to the people and disadvantaged students on the two border lines; free medical examinations and medicine were provided to nearly 2,000 people with a total value of more than 2 billion VND. At the same time, they advised on the implementation of the emulation movement "Join hands to eliminate temporary and dilapidated houses", mobilizing financial support for building and repairing houses for disadvantaged households with a total value of more than 1 billion VND.

Along with that, border diplomacy and people's diplomacy are tasks that units in the city's Border Guard force constantly strive to maintain a close coordination relationship with the border protection forces of the two provinces of Salavan and Sekong, Laos; promptly help and support friends with hundreds of gifts worth nearly 200 million VND. When 35/36 houses of people in Ta Lui village, Ka Lum district, Sekong province were burned down due to a fire, the city's Border Guard provided relief to the people of the neighboring village, worth 260 million VND, thereby further strengthening solidarity and friendship.

Maintain sovereignty , build trust

The patrolling steps of the border guards are relentless on all the borders.
