(HBO) – Sectors and localities in Hoa Binh province have stepped up disseminating information about Vietnam’s seas and islands in various forms, thereby helping to improve local officials, Party members and people’s awareness of the importance of seas and islands to national development and defence.
An exhibition of
maps and documents themed "Hoang Sa, Truong Sa of Vietnam – historical and
legal evidence” attracts a number of young people. The photo was taken at the
event held in Lac Thuy district.
From April 2016 to May 2018, the steering board
for communications about seas and islands organised exhibitions in Hoa Binh
city and nine districts across the province. The events, held at local cultural
centres or stadiums, attracted more than 33,000 visitors, including officials,
Party members and residents.
The displays helped visitors learn about the
features, locations, historical and legal basis and facts about the maritime
sovereignty and continental shelf of Vietnam as specified in the 1982 United
Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea. Visitors to the exhibitions were also
updated about maritime disputes, along with the Party’s guidelines and the
State’s policies and law on resolving maritime disputes.
Additionally, press agencies and the portal of
Hoa Binh province have also regularly published information about Vietnamese
seas and islands. Thirteen columns have been created and 135 news stories have
been posted on the province’s portal. The Hoa Binh Newspaper has built 30
columns and ran more than 200 news stories, articles and video clips, tens of
which have been translated into English on its website. Meanwhile, the
provincial radio and television station has also opened 42 programmes and
broadcast hundreds of news stories on its channels.
Those practical activities have helped improve
Hoa Binh people’s knowledge and awareness of their responsibility towards the
country’s seas and islands, as well as national development and defence./.
