He encouraged the border guard officers and soldiers to uphold their tradition, remain a reliable support for the people, foster internal unity, and collaborate in Party and political building to meet new requirements in the new situation.

While in Cao Bằng, the State leader paid tribute to General Võ Nguyên Giáp and 34 soldiers of the Propaganda Unit of the Liberation Army at Trần Hưng Đạo Forest, a special national relic in Tam Kim commune of Nguyễn Bính district.
