Help "fishing rod" instead of "stringing fish"
One day at the end of July 2025, we visited Mr. Le Van Ly's family (Tru Pi village, A Luoi 1 commune). Meeting us again, Mr. Ly happily announced: Thank you very much to the soldiers, since the day you gave the family a pair of breeding pigs, the family's life has been less difficult. The pair of pigs have given birth to 2 litters with 10 piglets; the family used the money from selling the pigs to buy household items and buy books and clothes for the children to go to school. Currently, both mother pigs are preparing to give birth to their third litter.
Previously, at the end of 2023, implementing 3 national target programs for ethnic minorities and mountainous areas in Hong Thuy commune, A Luoi district (now A Luoi 1 commune), the City Military Command (CHQS) presented 10 pairs of local pigs to 10 local households, including Mr. Ho Van Ly's household. During the raising period, officers and soldiers of the A Luoi District Military Command (formerly) helped households with pig care, building barns, and providing food. Therefore, the pigs of the households all developed very well, gradually improving their lives.
Not only giving seeds, seedlings are also supported by the City Military Command for families with suitable conditions. That is the family of Mr. Tran Van Long, Ra sooc A Looc hamlet, Hong Bac commune (now A Luoi 2 commune) who was given 50 orange seedlings by the army to build an orchard. The City Military Command also mobilized 30 officers and soldiers to help the family renovate the garden, dig holes and directly help plant. After more than 1 year of care, due to the suitable climate and weather, Mr. Long's family's orange garden has grown very well, the orange trees grow evenly and beautifully, promising economic efficiency.
Mr. Tran Van Long shared that his family would like to thank the soldiers for supporting the seedlings and guiding the family on how to plant and care for the trees. Since having the orange garden, it has created motivation for the family to develop the garden economy, no longer leaving the land empty like in the past; opening up opportunities for economic development.
Over the past 3 years, the City Military Command has directly supported 20 disadvantaged families with seedlings and donated more than 300 seedlings (oranges and grapefruits) to 6 families with preferential policies and difficulties in A Luoi district (old). At the same time, hundreds of officers and soldiers have been mobilized to coordinate with the militia force to help localities with thousands of working days to build roads, dredge canals, repair houses for preferential policies and single-parent families; repair community houses, help families plant fruit trees, and build model vegetable gardens for local people to learn from... These effective and practical works have contributed to helping disadvantaged families in the border areas rise up, eliminate hunger and reduce poverty, and help localities build new rural areas.
Maintain the people's trust
Lieutenant Colonel Le Van Linh, Political Commissar of the City Military Command, said: Performing the function of the army working in peacetime, units in the entire army carry out mass mobilization work synchronously, comprehensively, substantially, in depth, in accordance with reality and creating a wide spread. The cadres doing mass mobilization work are experienced people, knowledgeable about customs, habits, languages, and cultures of ethnic groups, close to and closely attached to the people. The "3 together" activities of the military officers and soldiers helping people overcome difficulties, develop the economy, and build a new life have contributed to firmly consolidating the relationship between the army and the people. Especially, maintaining the trust of ethnic minorities in the army, thereby proactively coordinating to build forces and participate in protecting the Fatherland.
Colonel Ha Van Ai, Deputy Commissar of the City Military Command, shared: Mass mobilization work is a regular task of the city's armed forces, carried out in many forms. In particular, it focuses on implementing the motto "Listen to the people, speak so that the people understand, make the people believe" and President Ho Chi Minh's mass mobilization style "Respect the people, be close to the people, understand the people, learn from the people and be responsible to the people". The City Military Command focuses on innovating and diversifying the forms of mass mobilization work; building typical examples and models of "Skilled Mass Mobilization" in the stationed areas. At the same time, building a strong political base and propagating and mobilizing the people to perform national defense and security tasks, building a strong military zone, building a solid national defense posture, and a solid people's security posture.
Each “Great Solidarity” house, each livelihood model, each concrete road, and civil construction in remote, isolated, and border areas is a vivid demonstration of the close bond between the army and the people, a solid fortress of the people’s hearts to protect each hamlet and each peaceful home. “We have determined that building a “People’s Hearts Position” is a long-term strategy. Each officer and soldier must deeply imbue the viewpoint: To maintain the sovereignty and security of the Fatherland, first of all, we must maintain the trust of the people. Activities directed towards the grassroots, closely connected with the people, have also enhanced the image of “Uncle Ho’s soldiers” in peacetime, creating trust and motivation to promote the combined strength of the great national unity bloc,” Colonel Ha Van Ai emphasized.
