On April 29, the People's Committee of Lam Dong province said that it had just coordinated with the Command of Military Region 7 to organize the inauguration and handover ceremony of 60 adjacent houses for border militia posts in Quang Truc commune.

Leaders of Lam Dong province said that building a residential point with 60 houses not only contributes to stabilizing housing; while improving people's lives, it also has strategic significance in combining socio-economic development with strengthening national defense and security.
Thereby, making an important contribution to the task of building a people's national defense posture associated with the people's security posture right from the grassroots level.
This is a major policy, showing the humanity and concern of the Party, State, and Army for people in border areas.

Each house has a budget of about 200 million VND, and electricity and clean water are installed in each household. In addition, each family is also given a picture of Uncle Ho, the national flag, a 32-inch TV and a breeding cow for economic development.
