Currently, Colonel Tran Van Tri's family only has his wife, who is over 86 years old, living in a house that has been built for many years and is in a state of disrepair. In order to encourage and share the difficulties with Colonel Tran Van Tri's family, the Nghe An Border Guard Command has mobilized the Thien Tam Fund - Vingroup Corporation to support 60 million VND to build a house of gratitude for the family. After more than 1 month of construction, the project was completed and handed over to the family in time for use during the Lunar New Year 2019.
Colonel Tran Van Tri, Hero of the People's Armed Forces, has made many contributions to the cause of protecting border security and sovereignty and building the Border Guard force, actively contributing to the socio-economic development and strengthening national defense of the province.
