Army Corps 15 fosters public trust and unity along Gia Lai’s border region
In recent years, Army Corps 15 has joined hands with local authorities and ethnic communities in Gia Lai province to build a better life in the border areas. Beyond developing large-scale rubber and coffee plantations and creating stable jobs and incomes for tens of thousands of workers, the Corps has also helped eradicate poverty, build schools, health stations, and solid housing for residents. These efforts have strengthened people’s trust and deepened the enduring bond between the army and the people. Photo: Hong Diep - VNA
