PANO – The Coast Guard Region 3 Command, in coordination with the Ba Ria - Vung Tau provincial Party Committee’s Commission for Mass Mobilization and other relevant organs, implemented the “Coast guards stand side-by-side with fishermen” program on May 21 in Long Dien district, Ba Ria – Vung Tau province.

In the framework of the program, the delegation visited and presented 100 gifts to policy households and 200 gifts to needy fishermen, worth VND 1 million each, while handing over national flags, medicines, raincoats ... to poor people in the locality.
The command also worked with Hung Vuong Hospital and District No.2 Hospital in Ho Chi Minh City to provide free health checkups and medicines to 500 local people.
