In October 2019, the Central Highlands province launched a search for and
repatriation of remains of Vietnamese volunteer soldiers and experts in Cambodia
for the 2019 – 2020 dry season.
During the 20th campaign, from October 22, 2019 to April 3, 2020, the search and
repatriation team K52 of the provincial Military Command found and repatriated
the remains of 16 martyrs from three northeastern provinces of Cambodia namely
Ratanakiri, Stung Treng and Preah Vihear.
Since its search and repatriation efforts began in 2001, Gia Lai has brought
home remains of 1,428 martyrs from Cambodia.
