For the 2025-30 term, the division’s Party Committee sets out to continue effectively implementing resolutions and directives, with a focus on leading the successful fulfillment of combat readiness and reconnaissance tasks, according to Hậu.

"It aims to improve training quality, ensure accurate information gathering and timely reporting, and avoid passivity or surprise in any situation," he said.

It will improve the leadership capacity and combat strength of its grassroots Party organisation, as well as the quality of its cadre and Party members. This is closely linked with building a clean and strong Party organization and an exemplary and outstanding unit.

It will continue to coordinate with local Party committees, authorities, and socio-political organisations to effectively carry out public communication and mobilisation efforts.

These aim to encourage local people in the assigned areas to feel secure in going offshore and maintaining their presence at sea, joining hands with functional forces to firmly safeguard the nation's sovereignty over the sea and islands.
