PANO – Over the past year, the Naval Zone B, in cooperation with authorities in Ho Chi Minh City, Ba Ria – Vung Tau, Tien Giang, Ben Tre, Tra Vinh, Soc Trang and Bac Lieu provinces, organised 55 meetings to brief more than 24,000 local people on the important tasks to defend the national sovereignty in off-shore islands.
These programs helped raise awareness of local authorities and people of all walks of life of the importance of off-shore islands in the national socio-economic development and national defence and at the same time strengthen their responsibility in defending the national territory over off-shore islands
