The team, led by Colonel Le Hong Quang, Deputy Political Chief of Naval Region 2, travelled aboard the Truong Sa 04 vessel to carry out the task.
Located about 580km Northwest of Vung Tau Cape, Ba Ke shoal hosts three DK1 platforms - DK1/9, DK1/20 and DK1/21 - under the DK1 Battalion of Naval Region 2. The area is among the most remote polling locations on Vietnam’s southern continental shelf.

At each platform, the team ensured full compliance with electoral regulations, preparing all required facilities and materials, including decorations, signage, voter lists, voter cards, ballots and ballot boxes. Candidate biographies and action programs were publicly displayed, enabling voters to review information before casting ballots in accordance with electoral procedures.
Polling stations were arranged solemnly and properly with the participation of platform officers and soldiers, ensuring a formal and orderly voting environment.
Fishermen aboard fishing vessel QNg 96435 TS from the central province of Quang Ngai, who were operating in nearby waters, were also supported in exercising their voting rights. The election team transported them to the Truong Sa 04 ship, assisted with temporary voter registration, issued voter cards and guided them through the voting process, ensuring their civic rights and responsibilities were fulfilled.
After completing early voting activities in Ba Ke cluster on the afternoon of March 3, the delegation continued its voyage to organize early voting at other DK1 platforms across the southern continental shelf.
