The program aims to encourage flood victims in Quang Binh to overcome difficulties to enjoy a cozy and happy lunar New Year, as well as support the Vietnam Coast Guard to firmly protect national sovereignty over seas and islands.

As reported, Loc Thuy commune has been severely devastated by the recent floods in 2020. Many houses were deeply submerged in floodwater. The total damage has been estimated at over VND 82 billion.

Therefore, a working delegation, led by Colonel Nguyen Van Hien, Deputy Political Commissar of the Coast Guard Region 1 Command, inquired after and presented gifts to disadvantaged people in the locality.
