The weather has been much more favorable this year than in previous years. Although it was late October, sunny and warm days were still lingering. Taking advantage of calm seas, fishermen in coastal communes such as the former Phu Dien, Vinh Thanh, and Vinh Xuan communes, now part of Phu Vinh Commune, have been heading out to sea to catch seafood and earn extra income. Although the catch is not as abundant as during the main fishing season, the ‘bounty of the sea’ is still enough to provide them with hearty meals.

The Coast Guard Region 2 Command, in coordination with the Department of Education and Training of Hue City, the Propaganda Department, and the Mass Mobilization Committee of Hue City Party Committee, has launched an online contest titled “I Love My Homeland’s Seas and Islands” for the 2025-2026 academic year. The contest is aimed at Secondary school students from seven coastal communes and wards in Hue City.
