Comrade B Lup Ham, Head of A Roang 1 Village, A Roang Commune, emotionally shared: “In the past, it was very dangerous to travel at night, children did not dare to go out to play, and people were also afraid to go out. Recently, Economic -Defense Group 92, Military Region 4 coordinated with local Party committees and authorities to support the groundbreaking of the project "Electricity to light up the village" with a total length of more than 2km, installing more than 40 solar bulbs with a total cost of more than 80 million VND. With electricity, the village seems to be revitalized. The villagers are very excited to have a lighting system like today. On behalf of the villagers of A Roang 1 Village, I would like to thank Economic-Defense Group 92 for their attention and support so that the villagers have light, bringing joy to the people in the border area".

Officers and staff of Economic - Defense Group 92 coordinated to guide people in using solar lamps.

As the Head of A Roang 1 Village said, now every night, children gather under the light to organize group games. A Viet Thi Phuong, 8 years old, from A Roang 1 Village, is playing jump rope with her friends under the newly installed lights, smiling and saying: “Before, my friends and I were afraid to go out at night. Now the street is as bright as inside the house, I feel happy and not afraid anymore! We can play jump rope and shuttlecock after school.”

As in A Roang commune, the joy continued to spread in A Dot village, Lam Dot commune, A Luoi district, where the inter-village road, which used to be bumpy and lacked light, is now brightly lit thanks to the joint support of Economic-Defense Group 92 to build the "Border Light" project with a length of more than 600m, installing 25 solar lights, with a total investment of more than 45 million VND.

A So, A Luoi Economic-Defense Zone is located in 4 communes: Lam Dot, A Roang, Huong Phong, Dong Son (A Luoi district), a border area, adjacent to Laos; ethnic minorities account for more than 90%; life still faces many difficulties. Colonel Luu Duc Chinh, Party Secretary, Political Commissar of Economic-Defense Group 92 said: In the past time, implementing the Project to improve the quality of mass mobilization work in A So, A Luoi Economic-Defense Zone, Economic-Defense Group 92 has surveyed and deployed the construction of many meaningful and practical projects to help people, such as: "Electricity to light up the village", "Model military-civilian road", "Bringing clean water to the villagers"...

These projects not only bring joy to the people in the A So Economic-Defense Zone, A Luoi, but are also proof of the strength of military-civilian solidarity.
