The provincial military has mobilized more than 26,485 officers and soldiers to help people in Ky Son district overcome the damage caused by heavy rains and storm No. 4 in 2022. The provincial Military Command has helped the poor commune of Nam Giai, Que Phong district, gradually escape poverty and strive for sustainable development.

Especially, during the period when the Covid-19 epidemic broke out and became complicated in the province, the provincial military officers and soldiers did not hesitate to sacrifice and endure hardships, were ready to go to the epidemic center, carry out long-term missions, and were one of the core forces on the front line, contributing to early control of the epidemic, and bringing all activities of the province to stability and recovery soon.

Over the past 5 years, the Party Committee and the Provincial Military Command have always focused on building, nurturing, and replicating advanced models, creating a strong influence, learning from each other, and promoting the emulation movement to develop more and more.

In the coming years, it is forecasted that the economy, culture and society of Nghe An province will continue to develop; people's lives will be improved; national defense and security will be maintained; people's trust in the leadership role of Party committees and authorities at all levels will be strengthened. However, hostile forces continue to take advantage of religious and democratic issues, shortcomings and limitations in state management to incite sabotage; the situation of religious security, rural security, urban security and cyber security will be potentially complicated; criminal activities will be increasingly sophisticated; natural disasters and epidemics will be unpredictable... The planning of administrative boundaries also poses new requirements for ideological work, organization, policies and emulation movements to win of the provincial armed forces.

In the new period, the Party Committee and the Provincial Military Command will continue to thoroughly grasp and effectively implement the resolutions and directives of the superiors on innovating and promoting the movement of self-defense; promote the results of the Provincial Military Self-defense Congress for the period 2019 - 2024; actively innovate the content and form of self-defense; focus on building political mettle for soldiers, improving the overall quality, qualifications, combat readiness and combat strength of the Provincial Military, successfully implementing breakthroughs, contributing to comprehensive and solid changes in all aspects of work; focus on building many exemplary collectives and individuals as the core and driving force in the self-defense movement; resolutely overcome limitations and shortcomings, constantly develop, with the determination to "Promote internal strength, overcome difficulties, join hands and unite to excel in completing tasks".
