As scheduled, youths will transfer technologies of planting vegetables and other trees with water-saving methods and waste treatment to troops stationed and people living in the district.
The delegation will also present orchids, vegetable plants and other trees to help the hosts recover youth vegetable gardens which were badly affected by natural disasters, and salt-water filters as well.
Before departing for Truong Sa island district and DK1 Platforms, the delegation raised nearly VND 2 billion from individuals and groups to support the district’s troops and people and collected other essential equipment to help improve troops and locals’ spiritual life.
