The Prime Minister called on the military to promote tradition, perform well the role of "fighting army, production army, working army" and organizations, businesses and individuals to join hands and contribute to building schools in the land border communes, with the motto "those who have merit help merit, those who have property help property, those who have little help little, those who have much help much", for "national love, compatriotism", creating conditions for students in these areas to have the conditions to realize their dreams and aspirations and contribute to building the homeland and the country.
