Of which, 82 units are stationed in 31 provinces and cities nationwide; many units are stationed in remote areas with difficult socio-economic conditions and special, dangerous, arduous, and toxic working environments, especially military and petroleum units.
Speaking at the press conference in early 2025 on the morning of February 25, Lieutenant General Do Van Thien, Political Commissar of the General Department of Logistics and Engineering, said that the merger of the two general departments into the General Department of Logistics and Engineering is a major policy demonstrating the new thinking and vision of the Politburo, the Central Military Commission, and the Ministry of National Defense in adjusting the organization of the logistics and engineering sector during the 80 years of fighting and growing of the army, meeting the requirements of protecting the Fatherland in the new era.
"The organization and staff of the General Department will be more streamlined after the merger; functions and tasks will have new developments, setting higher requirements to successfully carry out assigned tasks in the new situation," said Lieutenant General Do Van Thien.
According to Lieutenant General Thien, in the coming time, the General Department of Logistics and Engineering will focus on implementing the Central Military Commission's leadership resolution on logistics and engineering work, ensuring service for training, combat readiness, exercises, regular tasks and other unexpected tasks. In particular, ensuring good service for important political events in 2025 such as: the 50th anniversary of the Liberation of the South, National Reunification; 80 years of the August Revolution and National Day September 2.
