The competition tested knowledge of international law, the Party’s guidelines and State’s policies on national sea and islands, drug prevention, and school violence. The performances highlighted youths’ deep understanding of the strategic role of Vietnam’s sea and islands, as well as the tradition of the Vietnam Coast Guard.
