On the same day, delegates unveiled a commemorative plaque and officially handed over the "Lighting Up the Border Area" project in Din Chi, Chieng On, and Tram Hoc hamlets. The project consists of 5.25 kilometres of solar-powered lighting for rural roads, with a total of 253 solar light poles installed.

Delegates take part in a tree-planting activity at the Trang Nam campus of Hoa Ban Kindergarten in Yen Son commune.

The total funding for the projects and related activities amounted to nearly 1.5 billion VND (57,105 USD). Of this, more than 1 billion VND was allocated to the school project, nearly 420 million VND was invested in the solar lighting system, and the remainder was used to provide gifts to local schools.

These projects further strengthen the close ties between the military units and local communities, reinforce the "people-based posture," encourage residents to remain in border hamlets, and promote cooperation with the Border Guard Force in safeguarding national sovereignty and border security./.
