(HBO) - Hon Chuoi Island is located nearly 32 km from the west of the mainland, in Tran Van Thoi district, Ca Mau province. It is one of the important southwestern outpost islands of the country. It is one of the five islands of the Project of Youth Island Construction (the period from 2013 to 2020), which has been approved by the Prime Minister.
Hon Chuoi Island has a complex terrain. The people there
live mainly on cage fish farming and fishing. During a trip to the southwestern
sea of the country, the correspondent of Hoa Binh newspaper has recorded some
true images of the local people and the army force on Hon Chuoi island.
The red flag with a yellow star was sent from the mainland
to the army force and the people on Hon Chuoi island.
Naval soldiers in Region 5 are carrying the supported cargo
over 300 steep steps from the marina to the troops located on the island.
The islanders open small grocery stores to supply the
fishermen at sea. There are items that must be imported, there are also items
that people themselves have caught and processed for sale.
The children on the island are able to maintain their
learning at the "love classes” established, taken care of and directly taken
classes by the Border Guard in Hon Chuoi.
Although there are many difficulties, there is a play space
for students after every class on the island.
Every year, the localities coordinate with the Region 5
Naval Headquarters to visit, present gifts and encourage their children on duty
to protect the sovereignty at sea of the Fatherland.
The reporters of central and local newspapers and radio are
exchanging with the students on the island.
These days, offices, all roads, and residential areas in Hoa Binh province are decorated with flags, flowers, banners, hoardings, and bright slogans to welcome National Day on September 2. Below are some images captured by Hoa Binh Newspaper reporters in Hoa Binh City and some districts in the province.
Over the past three decades, Cao Phong town has leveraged its spirit of unity, dynamism, and creativity to utilise opportunities and overcome challenges, leaving significant milestones in economic and social development. The town has made substantial progress in various sectors while maintaining national defence and security.
Since the passing of Party General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong on July 19, offices and private houses in Hoa Binh city have flown flags half-mast to commemorate the Party chief.
After 30 years since its establishment (August 1st, 1994 - August 1st, 2024), Cao Phong town has made significant progress, from a mountainous agricultural town facing many difficulties to becoming the political, economic and social center of the district, aiming to build a civilized, modern urban area, which is rich in the cultural identity.
In his 14 years as the leader of the Communist Party of Vietnam, General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong visited Hoa Binh province three times. Each locality, unit, and enterprise visited by the General Secretary, and every household and wounded soldier kindly encouraged and given gifts by the late leader always remember and deeply keep in their mind the feelings of their beloved leader.
