673rd Air-Defence Brigade steps up studying and following Ho Chi Minh’s ideology, morality, and style

Grasping the Conclusion No. 01-KL/TW, dated 18 May 2021 of the Politburo (13th tenure), the 673rd Air-Defence Brigade has been adopting creative, synchronous solutions on enhancing study and imitation of Ho Chi Minh’s ideology, morality, and style, contributing to creation of drivers and overall strength for successfully completing all assigned tasks.

The 673rd Air-Defence Brigade, 2nd Corps is tasked with combat training and readiness to meet requirements of firmly managing and protecting national airspace in the new era. To accomplish its missions, the Brigade Party Committee and commanders always stick to higher echelon’s instruction, mission requirements, reality of the area, etc., to lead and direct comprehensive implementation of all aspects of operation, in which the study and imitation of Ho Chi Minh’s ideology, morality, and style are vital solutions and receive positive response from cadres, party members, and mass organisations. In fact, the Brigade has issued many documents to direct unified, close, concrete implementation at all levels and in all organisations; focused on promoting quality of learning special subjects regarding the study and imitation of Ho Chi Minh’s thought, morality, and style by means of many creative, rich contents, forms, and methods. Party committees, organisations, commanders, and mass organisations at each level regularly and timely review and supplement criteria of studying and following Ho Chi Minh’s ideology, morality, and style to ensure that they are conducive to reality, short, easy to understand, easy to remember, easy to carry out, and easy to assess results. Additionally, they are requested to direct and instruct cadres, party members and the masses to register to study and follow Uncle Ho through practical, concrete deeds in association with realising the Resolutions of the 4th Plenum of the Party Central Committee (12th and 13th tenure) on building and rectifying the Party and political system as well as the Campaign of promoting tradition, devoting talent, deserving to be Uncle Ho’s Soldiers in the new era. This has created consensus and high resolution among the corps of cadres, party members, and the masses. More importantly, in the face of new, difficult missions and contents, cadres’ and soldiers’ responsibility, striving for task accomplishment and training are to be successfully leveraged. Many new, creative models and methodologies are built, multiplied, and applied effectively such as “Good pilot battery”, “Battlefield of the determination-to-win youth”, etc., which receive positive response from cadres, party members, and the masses. Effectiveness of studying and following Uncle Ho’s ideology, morality, and style has made a direct contribution to building of a representative, pure Brigade Party Committee and an exemplary, representative, comprehensively strong Brigade, which develops sustainably; has comprehensive quality, high mobility, and combat power; is ready to undertake and successfully accomplish all assigned tasks.

Troops of the brigade join hands in building rural infrastructure

Currently, the tasks of training, combat readiness, management of airspace, promoting order and discipline is presenting the Brigade with more comprehensive, higher requirements. Meanwhile, hostile forces continue to intensify their acts of sabotage in all fields, especially those relating to ideology, morality, and lifestyle of cadres, party members, and soldiers, and so forth. Therefore, apart from comprehensive implementation of all aspects of operation, the Brigade Party and commanders continue to regard the study and imitation of Ho Chi Minh’s ideology, morality, and style according to the Conclusion No. 01-KL/TW of the Politburo (13th tenure) as a matter of utmost importance and the deciding factor in the Brigade’s task accomplishment, which can be operationalised by the following fundamental solutions:

One of the most important solutions the Brigade Party Committee and commanders focus their leadership and direction on is to enhance further propagation and education to raise cadres’ and soldiers’ awareness of contents, value, and great significance of Ho Chi Minh’s ideology, morality, and style as well as fine dignity of Uncle Ho’s Soldiers. To achieve unanimity of awareness, ideology, and action among cadres, party members, the masses, especially members of party committees’ standing boards and leading cadres at all levels, the Brigade makes good progress in the study of special subjects and works regarding the study and imitation of Ho Chi Minh’s ideology, morality, and style. The Brigade also directs its departments and units to concentrate on propagation and education to make cadres and soldiers further imbued with Uncle Ho’s ideology and example, and proud of traditions of Viet Nam People’s Army, the Military Corps, and units, thereby continuing to arouse their aspirations for devotion, the spirit of self-reliance and resilience, and leverage of fine dignity of Uncle Ho’s Soldiers to complete all assigned tasks successfully. In today’s situation, the propagation and education must aim to raise cadres’ and party members’ awareness and promote practices of self-reflection and self-correction; resolutely struggle against signs of deterioration in political ideology, morality, and lifestyle and individualism, most notably hostile forces’ strategy of “peaceful evolution” and incitement to “self-evolution” and “self-transformation” within the party. During the implementation process, the Brigade requests its departments and units to closely combine regular education with themed education by means of forum, talks, and meetings of organisations; bring into play the role of speakers, propagandists, internal radio system, and cultural institutions at the grassroots level, thus making Ho Chi Minh’s ideology, morality, and style as well as dignity of Uncle Ho’s Soldiers really come to life and become regular, voluntary deeds of organisations, cadres, party members, and the masses in units.

To create a movement campaigned for revolutionary actions for accomplishment of all assigned tasks, the Brigade Party Committee and commanders lead and direct close combination between study and imitation of Ho Chi Minh’s ideology, morality, and style with successful implementation of political tasks and Party building and rectification right from identification of criteria, development of plans and programs to inspection and assessment of outcomes. To continue to tap into this solution, in the coming time, apart from enhancing implementation of the Campaign for promoting tradition, devoting talent, deserving to be Uncle Ho’s Soldiers in the new era, the Determination-to-win Movement, and campaigns at all levels and branches, the Brigade Party Committee requests party committees and organisations to review, concretise, and add contents and methods to study and follow Ho Chi Minh’s ideology, morality, and style to programs and plans to realise political missions of each department and unit according to resolutions of party congresses at all levels and the Resolution of the Brigade Party Congress for the 2020 – 2025 term. Contents of programs and plans must align with strict implementation of conclusions and regulations on Party building and rectification, most notably the Conclusion No. 21-KL/TW, dated 25 October 2021 of the Party Central Committee (13th tenure) on stepping up building and rectifying the Party and political system, resolutely preventing, pushing back, and punishing seriously cadres and party members with deterioration in political ideology, morality, and lifestyle, and signs of “self-evolution” and “self-transformation”; the Resolution No. 847-NQ/QUTW, dated 28 December 2021 of the Central Military Commission on bringing into play fine dignity of Uncle Ho’s Soldiers and resolving to combat individualism in the new situation. Party committees and organisations are to evaluate comprehensively results and identify requirements and solutions to promote study and imitation of Ho Chi Minh’s thought, morality, and style in connection with Party building and rectification in their regular leadership resolutions. All cadres, party members, and the masses are requested to register to train themselves in accordance with their duties and assigned missions. Every year, results of studying and following Ho Chi Minh’s thought, morality, and style are regarded as criteria for assessment of emulation and commendation, assessment of cadres, party members, members of the youth union, members of unions, and organisations.

“A living example is more valuable than 100 propagandist remarks”, said President Ho Chi Minh. Therefore, leverage of exemplary role, especially that of leading cadres, is one of the most vital solutions, which has received special attention from the Brigade. To bring this content to soldiers’ daily life and activities, the Brigade Party Committee and commanders request all cadres, party members, members of the youth union, and members of unions to set shining examples voluntarily in order to affirm their leading, vanguard role under the motto: “the higher echelon sets good example for the lower echelon to follow”, “the higher echelon before the lower one”, “party members before the rest”, the higher position a cadre may hold, the more pioneering and exemplary he/she must be”. As for leading cadres at all levels, the responsibility to set examples is expressed in their steadfastness and the spirit of daring to think, to do, to take responsibility, to make breakthroughs, to confront hardships and challenges, and to put collective interest first; sternness in action for common interest; the democratic, scientific leadership style and ability to promote solidarity in units; upholding the principle of democratic centralism and combating localism and factionalism. Exemplary leading cadres are those who make endless effort to study, train, and cultivate themselves in terms of revolutionary ethics; are models of dignity and lifestyle; practice diligence, thrift, integrity, uprightness, public-mindedness, and selflessness; are honest, modest, and straightforward; are not involved in acts of corruption, wastefulness, and wrongdoing; have a serious attitude towards self-criticism and criticism; resolutely protect the right things and oppose the wrong ones. During the implementation process, the Brigade directs maintenance of regulations and quality of party meetings at all levels; suggests conduct of review to assess cadres and party members, especially those who have signs of violation; proactively grasp situations to timely deal with emerging ideological issues in party committees, party cells, departments, and units.

In addition, the Brigade Party Committee requests departments and units to strengthen inspection and supervision; conduct periodical preliminary summing-up and summation; timely rectify and resolutely struggle against incorrect perception, ideological errors, and wrongdoings. Party committees, organisations, and inspection commissions at all levels need to include the inspection and supervision of implementing resolutions, directives, and plans to study and follow Ho Chi Minh’s ideology, morality, and style in inspection, supervision plans. It is also necessary to successfully bring into play the role and responsibility of mass organisations and councils of military personnel in supervising party organisations, cadres, and party members realising regulations on responsibility to set bright examples. Preliminary summing-up and summation need to be carried regularly to appraise outcomes; timely praise and award collectives and individuals with achievements, new models, and effective, creative methodologies; while seriously learning from experience to resolutely struggle against wrong perception and ideology as well as wrongdoings (if any), thus turning the study and imitation of Ho Chi Minh’s ideology, morality, and style into needs and voluntary, regular deeds of organisations and individuals, contributing to upholding the tradition of “Lightning speed, boldness, resolute fight, constant win” of a Heroic Brigade in the new era.
