Photo exhibition "Hoang Sa, Truong Sa - the country at the forefront"

The photos displayed at the exhibition reflect touching stories about Hoang Sa and Truong Sa. They range from the selfless sacrifice of Vietnamese navy soldiers in the naval battle to protect Truong Sa archipelago in 1988, to the simple yet resilient and heroic daily life of the army and people on the island. The photos sometimes only capture the sacred flag-raising ceremony of Vietnamese navy soldiers on the occasion of the New Year; the image of a soldier still standing guard at the sovereignty marker in the pouring rain; or reflect the simple, innocent dream of a child on Sinh Ton island who wants to "become a navy soldier" when he grows up... All have "touched" the hearts of viewers and lingered with many emotions. Above all, viewers are filled with pride and admiration for generations of fathers and brothers who are willing to sacrifice themselves to protect the sacred sovereignty of the Fatherland.

In the quiet space of Hanoi autumn in the school yard, the emotions that could not be restrained burst into tears. Many tears… fell. There was a student who wished that one day very soon he would become a soldier on Truong Sa island to hold a gun to protect the sovereignty of the Fatherland. With the lingering emotions and echoes, the exhibition was successful in conveying the message of love and responsibility to preserve and protect the sovereignty of the sea and islands to the younger generation.
