The heartfelt love for the Spratly archipelago

(CPV) - Spratly archipelago is characterized as “a string of pearls at the East Sea” of the nation. Amongst the large waves, military forces and the people of the archipelago live and work, protecting the nation’s revered sea and island sovereignty with great resolve.
During mid-May, we crossed thousands of nautical miles to visit various islands and frame houses of the archipelago in the southern province of Khanh Hoa, accompanied by navy forces. A deep impression was left on us of the close affection between the army forces and the people of the islands. There is also a great feeling of confidence and pride among the cadres and soldiers stationed around the nation’s revered landmark of sovereignty.
