The President praised achievements the ministry has obtained in leading the implementation of military missions over the past time
He stated military officers and soldiers have overcome difficulties to fulfill their duties amid complicated developments in the region and the world, increasing activities of hostile forces against the Party and State, and continuous occurrences of natural disasters.
In the coming time, the ministry must actively grasp the situation and well perform its advisory and strategic tasks on military and defence while continuously improving training quality and combative readiness, he said.
The leader stressed the need to closely coordinate with the public security and other forces to defeat all hostile forces’ sabotage schemes and activities; maintain political security and social order and safety; and ensure security during important events such as APEC meetings this year.
