Hoang Dang Quang, Secretary of the Quang Binh Provincial Party Committee, attended in a festival in Dong Hoi, where he encouraged the locals to overcome problems caused by recent sea pollution.
“Though being affected by sea environment degradation, the locals managed to overcome difficulties and maintain security and stability in the locality. We need to continue to compensate them for damage caused by the incident and make the process as transparent, fair and objective as possible”, said Mr Quang.
The festival brought the people closer together and encouraged them to join national development movements launched by the Vietnam Fatherland Front.

I sincerely hope that local people will work together and join the movements toward local and national development.”
The great national unity festival is a significant part of Vietnam’s efforts to strengthen the people’s solidarity.
