The Vietnam Militia and Self-Defence Force, known simply as the Militia, is the militia and reserve force of Vietnam. Placed under the political leadership of the Communist Party of Vietnam, the executive administration of the Vietnam Ministry of National Defence, the management from the local and national governments as well as the direct command of the local military headquarters, The Vietnam Militia and Self-Defence Force is one of the three major components of the Vietnam People's Armed Forces, serving a significant role in the Vietnamese national defence strategies and cultures. Defined as the "armed force of the mass" that is organized as local-level units, VMSF's career is not meant to be "separated from production activities and work", making it a part-time, semi-professional territorial defence force.
