The Party Committee and Chain-of-Command of the military region have always paid attention to directing the mass mobilization work, particularly building hundreds of cultural construction works and sports facilities as well as thousands of gratitude houses for religious establishments and ethnic minority groups. In 2021 only, the military region and localities built 34 constructions and presented over 300 houses to policy beneficiaries.
