What activities, what programs have we started to implement for this year, in particular for each activity that we have started in our daily work, both in operational techniques and in administration and wherever it may be, the day and month of August is a very important day for all of us, not only for FALINTIL, but also for all FALINTIL and other Defense Institutions.

I request the Ministry of Defense and the F-FDTL Institution to continue working together to make maximum preparations for FALINTIL Day on August 20. The Chief of Staff, Brigadier General TRIX, concluded.
