He asked the Central Military Commission and the Ministry of National Defence to continue directing the expansion of military science.
Alongside, it is necessary to pay greater attention to promoting the scientific research and innovation movements among young military soldiers and officials, giving them best conditions in the work, strengthening the application of the research results in the implementation of the political tasks of the units and the military, and expanding effective models of scientific research among military youth, he asked.
Beside improving the quality of military science researches, it is necessary to focus on human resources training in the field of science and technology, he added.
The Government leader expressed his hope that the Military Youth Innovation Awards will receive more high-quality works, and winners of the awards will continue to promote their passion for science and technology and share their experience with their fellow soldiers and officials, thus further spreading the innovation movement among the military youth.
First held in 2000, the annual Military Youth Innovation Awards have received 6,186 works and initiatives by over 10,000 authors, many of which have been effectively applied in the reality, producing benefits worth hundreds of billion of VND to the military each year.
This year, the competition received 616 entries, 65 more than last year, including new technological solutions, digital transformation application, biotechnology, new materials, and measures on revolutionary ideology, moral and lifestyle education in military.
At the ceremony, winners of 10 first, 53 second, 121 third and 137 consolidate prizes were honoured.
