National flags presented to fishermen in Thanh Hoa

Mr. Nguyen Duc Cuong presents national flags to fishermen in Lach Hoi fishing port.

The event was jointly held by the Laborer (Nguoi Lao Dong) Newspaper, the Thanh Hoa provincial Department of Agriculture and Rural Development, the provincial Department of Information and Communications, and Sam Son Border Post.

These flags were part of 10,000 national flags presented to Thanh Hoa province by the Laborer Newspaper at the forum on tourism development linkage between Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, Nghe An province, and the extended North-Central region, which was held on July 1 in Vinh city, Nghe An province.

The “One million national flags for fishermen” and the “Pride of national flags” programs have handed over a million of national flags to fishermen.

According to Mr. Nguyen Duc Cuong, Deputy Director of Thanh Hoa provincial Department of Agriculture and Rural Development, the gifts were a source of encouragement for local fishermen to overcome their difficulties and continue their work and production, contributing to firmly safeguarding national sovereignty over sea and islands.

By October 10, the “One million national flags for fishermen” and the “Pride of national flags” programs launched by the Laborer Newspaper had presented more than 1.2 million national flags to fishermen in localities stretching from the North to the South of Vietnam.
