In his remarks, Mr. Trong urged the entire army to stay ready and prepare plans in response to non-traditional security challenges, and participate in natural disaster prevention and control, and search and rescue operations, especially in the upcoming storm season.
He stressed that the army should improve the quality of training and exercise, raise its combat readiness, and maintain its role as the core in building strong all-people defence.
It is necessary to ensure logistics services and technologies, and boost the defence industry towards modernity, while improving the quality of international integration and defence diplomacy, he noted.
Regarding Party building in the military, the Party chief laid emphasis on developing a strong contingent of officials who have morality, talents and reputation.
