When General Vo Nguyen Giap moved the location of the Campaign Command from Huoi He village (Na Tau commune) to Muong Phang, people from ethnic communities in Muong Phang joined hands to contribute manpower and resources with the engineering force to survey the terrain to build the Command Headquarters; acted as liaisons; donated food and provisions to support the troops; kept secrets for our army to build the base and participated in quarrying stones to open roads, contributing to ensuring the complete victory of the Campaign.
