Vietnam People's Army’s founding anniversary marked in South Sudan
VOV.VN - Vietnam's Level-2 Field Hospital Rotation 5, which has joined the UN peacekeeping mission in South Sudan (UNMISS), has launched practical activities aimed at introducing the country’s image and its people, as well as the heroic tradition of the Vietnamese army, to international friends.
In celebration of the 79th founding anniversary of the Vietnam People's Army on December 22, the activities have helped to send a message to international friends about a friendly and peace-loving nation that wishes to be a friend to all states around the world.
As part of this occasion, Force Commander of UNMISS Lieutenant General Mohan Subramanian, who had worked in Vietnam for four years, visited officers and soldiers of the Vietnamese field hospital.
While expressing his positive impression of the history and heroic tradition of the VPA, the officer acknowledged the contributions of the hospital, in particular and the Vietnamese army in general to the UN peacekeeping force at the UNMISS.
He used the occasion to present a certificate of merit to Senior Lieutenant Nguyen Thi Thanh Hang for her outstanding achievements at the hospital.
Level-2 Field Hospital Rotation 5 was deployed to South Sudan in July this year to replace the Level-2 Field Hospital Rotation 4. It consisted of 63 members, including 11 females. These officers and soldiers have undergone comprehensive training across a variety of areas, including political, military, technical logistics, medical expertise, and peacekeeping knowledge relevant to the current situation.
The continuous deployment of the Vietnamese level-2 field hospitals at UN peacekeeping missions has contributed to affirming the nation’s responsible and active participation and long-term commitment to UN peacekeeping operations.
