Tet programme promotes military-civilian bonds

The Son La city Military Command, in cooperation with the Police, People's Court, People's Procuracy, and the Forest Protection Department of the city, organised a programme entitled "Spring of Solidarity – Tet Filled with Military-Civilian Bonds" in response to the upcoming Lunar New Year (Tet) 2025 in Chieng Den commune on January 4.

Leaders of the provincial Military Command and the Son La city Military Command present gifts to policy beneficiary families.

 

More than 200 households from the commune’s Nam Nieu and Phieng Nghe hamlets participated in the event. 

The units presented gifts to 25 policy beneficiary families, 10 disadvantaged students, and seven families with soldiers currently serving in the military. They also gave gifts to the two hamlets. In addition, cultural, art, and sports activities were organized, such as a banh chung (square glutinous rice cake) wrapping contest, tug-of-war and stick pushing competitions. Traditional folk games like blindfolded drumming, blindfolded duck catching, and "tung con" (cloth ball throwing) were also held, creating a cheerful, warm atmosphere and strengthening the bonds between the military and the people.
