The top legislator asked the force to continue doing its best to strengthen its capacity in national defence, while continuing to maintain peaceful and friendly borderlines with neighbouring countries in line with the Party and State's external relations policy.

On the occasion, President Truong Tan Sang also sent a congratulation letter to the border guard force's officers and soldiers and people in border localities throughout the country.
