This is a new activity, as part of the program "Students with national sea and islands 2016".
With general, condensed and distilled information on a youthful graphic background, the clip introduces the country of Vietnam with over 3,000km of coastline and more than 2,700 large and small islands and two archipelagoes of Truong Sa and Hoang Sa.
Besides, the clip also provides information about the sovereignty over the sea and islands, recounts the history of illegal territorial waters encroachments and even sacrifices, losses of Vietnamese naval soldiers, who, regardless of difficulties and hardship, protect the national sovereignty.
Also in this clip, images of the sense of protecting the sovereignty of Vietnamese students are emphasized because flagpoles are contributed to build by students belonging to student associations nationwide on outpost islands, where are the most dangerous positions such as the flagpoles on Tran, Ly Son, Phu Quy, Tho Chu, Bach Long Vy and Cu Lao Xanh islands.

Through the clip, we know the efforts of the youth sent to the youth islands to settle and build the islands as well as contribute efforts to protect the nation’s sovereignty and territorial waters.
With the information sources filtered from official communications channels and true documents, the clip about history of Vietnam’s sea and islands through infographic has imparted the most correct and clearest content about Vietnam’s sovereignty over territorial waters as well as highlighted the role of students, the youth of Vietnam, who are contributing their efforts to build the country with the most practical action./.
