Vietnam Coast Guard Strengthens Sovereignty and Public Support Through Fishermen Assistance

The Vietnam Coast Guard is not only enforcing laws at sea but also serving as a firm support for fishermen, enabling them to venture out and fish with confidence. These efforts contribute to building a 'people's foundation' for national maritime defense and protecting the sovereignty of the nation's seas and islands. Specifically, the Vietnam Coast Guard organizes numerous meaningful activities for fishermen in the Ly Son island district. These include economic and moral support for their fishing endeavors. Furthermore, the Border Guard (Bộ đội Biên phòng) in Dak Lak province is actively promoting social security and legal awareness activities, aiming to improve the lives and legal understanding of local residents. Additionally, Flotilla 21 (Hải đoàn 21) has provided encouragement and gifts to fishermen affected by fires, demonstrating solidarity with those facing hardship. Such assistance ensures fishermen can continue their livelihoods without worry, empowering them to act as guardians of the nation's maritime sovereignty. Moreover, agricultural extension officers are being dispatched to the grassroots to help local communities enhance their production. These diverse support initiatives highlight the importance of forging strong bonds with the populace, particularly those in coastal and island regions, as Vietnam strives to secure and maintain its vast maritime interests.
