In 2025, Hanoi City was assigned by the Government and the Ministry of National Defense to select and call up 3,700 citizens to join the army. The Hanoi Capital Command has proactively advised on the consolidation of the Military Service Council and coordinated with other forces to do a good job of propaganda and education to raise awareness of obligations and responsibilities in implementing the Law on Military Service.
With the active and proactive participation of Military Service Councils at all levels, with the core being military agencies in localities, Hanoi Capital has completed the military recruitment target, with the quality of citizens enlisted higher than last year.
At the military enlistment point of Ba Dinh district, Hanoi, Mr. Ta Nam Chien - Deputy Secretary, Chairman of Ba Dinh District People's Committee said that the annual recruitment of citizens for military service always meets and exceeds the target. Following the heroic tradition, every year, young people in Ba Dinh district join the army and strive to become military officers or return to their localities to be good citizens, contributing to the local economic development.
Ba Dinh District is a locality with a long revolutionary tradition, always at the forefront of the fronts, contributing to the struggle for national liberation and construction.
