Building Nghe An armed forces in the new situation
In recent times, the Nghe An Provincial Military Command has strictly implemented the work of reorganizing the local military. Thereby, it has contributed to firmly maintaining the national defense posture, without interrupting the leadership and direction of military and national defense in the locality; in accordance with the new administrative organization and the requirements of protecting the Fatherland in the current period.
Compact, strong and agile to ensure combat readiness requirements
Recently, the Party CommitteeProvincial Military Commandhas thoroughly grasped and strictly implemented the Resolutions and Conclusions of the Central Committee, the Politburo, and the Secretariat on streamlining the political system's organizational apparatus and Project No. 839 of the Central Military Commission on continuing to reorganize the local military organization to be "lean, compact, strong", effective, efficient, reducing intermediate contacts, meeting mission requirements in the new situation.
Based on the guidance and direction of the Ministry of National Defense and Military Region 4, the Provincial Military Command has led, directed, and deployed the work of arranging local military agencies according to the 2-level local government model to ensure synchronization, unity, and compliance with regulations.
Accordingly, the Provincial Military Command Party Committee announced the Decision to dissolve the District Military Command, establish 5 Regional Defense Commands in key areas, including: Regional Defense Command 1 - Van An, Regional Defense Command 2 - Quynh Luu; Regional Defense Command 3 - Quy Chau, Regional Defense Command 4 - Tuong Duong, Regional Defense Command 5 - Anh Son; reorganize and receive the Border Guard Command; dissolve, arrange, and reorganize 412 commune-level Military Commands into 130 commune-level Military Commands after the merger; at the same time, also announced the establishment of 6 Party Committees of Regional Defense Commands and Border Guard Commands...
Up to now, the regional defense commands have quickly stabilized their organizations, put all activities into order, and are ready to effectively carry out military and defense tasks in the new situation.
Units focus on leadership and direction to maintain strict combat readiness; maintain the order of regular construction, discipline training, and ensure security and safety in defense areas. At the same time, proactively build, adjust, and supplement defensive combat determination in accordance with local characteristics, organize training to improve combat readiness and the ability to maneuver and handle situations to meet mission requirements.
For example: The Defense Command of Area 1 - Van An coordinated with the Military Command of Than Linh Commune and Nam Dan Commune to detonate two bombs left over from the war to ensure safety. The Defense Command of Area 4 - Tuong Duong; the Defense Command of Area 3 - Quy Chau coordinated with the Border Guard and Militia forces in the communes in the area to help people overcome landslides and whirlwinds caused by storms No. 2 and No. 3 in the area.
The Regional Defense Commands have also synchronously deployed coordination work, guiding the Commune Military Commands to develop and practice combat plans, and arrange militia forces in accordance with local conditions, creating a solid, interconnected battle formation right from the grassroots.
Units have performed well in ideological and political work; promoted propaganda and education, raised awareness and responsibility, created high consensus and unity among cadres and party members, promoted the qualities of "Uncle Ho's soldiers", and were ready to receive and excellently complete tasks in all new positions.
The Party Committees and Party Cells directly under them successfully organized the Party Congress for the 2025-2030 term; developed and promulgated Working Regulations and assigned tasks within the Party Committee; thereby, ensuring Party activities and promoting the Party's comprehensive and absolute leadership role in performing local military and defense tasks.
Focus on building armed forces to new heights
It can be affirmed that: Up to now, the work of arranging local military organizations in the provincial armed forces has met the requirements of the tasks in the new situation; in accordance with the organization, staffing, and arrangement of military forces in localities, in order to ensure the implementation of local defense and military tasks. In particular, it has ensured the principle of the Party's absolute leadership of the Vietnam People's Army; ensured command and unity in building a solid, interconnected defense zone, maintained stability; ensured "streamlining - compactness - strength", effective and efficient operations, truly being the core force in building and implementing the national defense policy, people's war and firmly protecting the socialist Vietnamese Fatherland.
In the coming time, with new requirements, the armed forces of Nghe An province will face many advantages, intertwined with many difficulties and challenges, namely: The world and regional situation is forecast to continue to develop in a complex and unpredictable manner. In the country, the Military Region and Nghe An province still have potential factors causing instability; reactionary and hostile forces are intensifying sabotage before the Party Congresses at all levels. Non-traditional security continues to increase. Activities of all kinds of crimes, illegal entry and exit, human trafficking, weapons, explosives, firecrackers and illegal religious propaganda in the mountains still occur. Natural disasters, epidemics and climate change are increasingly severe. The negative side of the market economy has a significant impact on units; the lives of a number of officers and soldiers in the provincial armed forces are still difficult.
Meanwhile, the area of the Regional Defense Commands is large, especially in the areas of Tuong Duong, Anh Son, and Quy Chau, making it difficult to grasp the situation. The staff of the Commune Military Command is thin, while the tasks of the District Military Command have been basically transferred to the Military Commands of communes and wards. The system of leadership, direction, and guidance documents at all levels, especially the system of legal documents, is not complete and specific, so the direction and implementation of military and defense tasks at the grassroots level still faces difficulties, the control and coordination of militia and self-defense forces, reserve mobilization, warehouses, stations, and scattered technical logistics facilities. Especially in localities with complex terrain, such as mountainous areas, islands, or borders.
On the other hand, during the transition, the establishment of the Regional Defense Command also poses an urgent need to reorganize the entire intermediate command system from organizational structure, staffing, logistics, finance to coordination mechanism with the People's Committee at the commune level. Meanwhile, there is still a lack of detailed guidance on the authority, regime, policies, and leadership role of the Regional Defense Command, "leading to the risk of overlapping functions or gaps in responsibility in implementing tasks".defenseat the base".
The reorganization of local military agencies according to the two-level local government model has been creating major changes in organization and staffing, setting out new contents on the leadership, command, and operation mechanism of State management of military and defense in the new situation.
However, with high political determination, the armed forces of Nghe An province will continue to promote the proud tradition - twice awarded the title of Hero of the People's Armed Forces to overcome all difficulties and challenges; build a comprehensively strong provincial armed force that is "exemplary and typical", with a reasonable organizational structure, suitable to the requirements of the task of protecting the Fatherland in the new situation; be the core force in building the all-people national defense posture associated with the people's security posture, building an increasingly strong defense zone to meet the requirements of the task of building and protecting the socialist Vietnamese Fatherland in the new period./.
