Accordingly, when reaching islands of the Truong Sa archipelago and DK1 platforms, the mission was briefed upon the troops’ task accomplishments in 2017 and the first three months in 2018. The mission hailed the troops for their achievements but also pointed out some shortcomings that need fixing so as to better fulfill assigned tasks in 2018.

The mission then visited and presented gifts to troops and islanders of the Truong Sa archipelago and offered incense to President Ho Chi Minh and martyrs sacrificing themselves in the Truong Sa waters and the Southern continental shelf of the country.

Below are a number of images recorded during the visit of the mission.
