In addition to traditional New Year gifts and specialties from regions across the country, peach, apricot, and kumquat trees were also loaded onto the ships, bringing the festive spirit of the Lunar New Year to the country's frontline islands.
These gifts represented the sentiments and goodwill of organizations, businesses, individuals, and associations across the nation toward Truong Sa.
Truong Sa Archipelago, a sacred part of the country's territory, is a source of pride and shared responsibility of the Party, State, and people. Despite numerous challenges, the officers, soldiers, and people on Truong Sa have stood strong in protecting the nation's sea and island sovereignty, making Truong Sa a symbol of national will and strength.
On this occasion, journalists from domestic press agencies also joined the delegation to visit the islands, connecting the New Year celebrations on Truong Sa with those on the mainland./.
