For many years in a row, fishing and netting activities of people in the West are no longer as exciting as before. What can I say, when the water does not jump from the shore, fish and shrimp from upstream cannot follow the current but return. People had to look forward to the flood season in weariness. Uncle Tho has more than 30 years of fishing and netting on the Tien River. He is considered a master who knows the river and has the most experience in catching fish in the area. He knows each type of bait is specific to a certain type of fish, where there is a whirlpool and what fish to use the appropriate catcher. He is also a witness to all the changes on the river – where he and many other fishermen find a way to make a living, from the beginning of their career to the present. In the past, at the headwaters of the Tien River, the two banks of Tan Chau town and Hong Ngu town, almost always crowded with boats to catch fish. The most exciting is still in the floating season, when the spirit fish come from upstream, fishing activities not only take place during the day, but the river also shimmers with the lights of boats and boats to catch fish at night. Groups of people work together to pull nets and pour each batch of spirit fish onto the boat to be transported to the shore in time for buyers to make fish sauce and cook fish sauce. Or sometimes, just caught a mallet, a cotton ball, etc., people sell it right on the boat. Thanks to that, the whole river seems to be always bustling and bustling. Prepare nets to catch fish “Just every time the fish is thrown out, the fish sticks from the lead up to the top of the net, unable to remove it in time. And every time we unload the scrub to catch fish, I say it’s as fun as the festival,” said Mr. Uncle Tho continued: “But that was in the past, when it was far away, there were no more fish in the river.” Mr. Quy (35 years old), a fisherman on the bank of Tan Chau landslide, also joked: “One day, he hit a catch of big pangasius and snakehead fish. I knew right away that it wasn’t river fish, but fish that escaped from the rafts, but now it’s hard to catch such big fish.” A few years ago, because they could not bear with a moderate life, many fishermen decided to sell all their boats and canoes to take their families to Binh Duong to find a new job. Uncle Tho and Quy also went to Ho Chi Minh City to find a way to make a living. But soon, they returned to their profession, to the river… As something unknown, always associated them with this profession of lowering silver. “When I’m lucky, I can catch some cotton balls, I bring them down to the town market to sell them for a good price. Any unlucky meal is enough for 2 meals. Now I can’t catch fish to get rich like before, but I’m never hungry when I’m hungry,” said Mr. Tho optimistically. Then every day twice a day, they throw the motorboat out to the river, visit the nets, some pre-ordered fishing boats and then return with small achievements. The profession of “aunt and uncle” to them is not simply a profession, but it also seems to be a career. The river with them, is not only a place to make a living but also a place of affection.

Summer is considered the “business season” of Ly Son tourism (Quang Ngai). This year, however, everything turned upside down. These days, the pace of life on Ly Son island seems to slow down. There is no longer a busy scene of tourists as usual, instead it is a lonely, cold scene. That is because to prevent the Covid-19 epidemic from entering the area, Quang Ngai province banned all foreign tourists and international visitors to the island district. Therefore, industries related to tourism such as boats, canoes, trams, motels, hotels, homestays, restaurants, eateries, … all fall into a state of “hibernation”. The center of the island district at night is deserted Almost all accommodation establishments in the area are closed due to lack of guests Anchor ships wait for their turn to run alternately, operating frequency is only 20% of normal There are a total of 92 rooms of 4-star standard accommodation, nearly a month ago, Muong Thanh Ly Son hotel was still open for operation. Said to be active, but almost no guests came to rent the room. Mr. Bui Xuan Nghia – Director of Muong Thanh Ly Son Hotel, said that the unit has a total of 66 employees, currently only 5% are arranged to rotate activities. However, people who come only do cleaning and maintenance of equipment, but there are no guests to receive. Although there is no revenue, the unit still pays 40% of the monthly salary for employees to cover their lives and overcome difficulties. “Just got up after several consecutive epidemics, then storm No. 9, if this situation persists, I am afraid that people who live by tourism in Ly Son will find it difficult to sustain themselves” – Mr. Nghia worried. Opposite Muong Thanh Ly Son is Ngoc Island Resort – one of the large accommodation units on the island – which has been closed for more than three weeks now because there are no guests. Nearly all hotels, motels and homestays in Ly Son district are in a similar situation, “doors closed and bolted”. Many hotel and motel owners admit that they are facing a lot of difficulties because they have no revenue, while maintenance costs and bank loan interest are putting great pressure on. There were no tourists, so for nearly a month, the parking lot of the Ly Son District Labor Union was always in a state of no space. All cars are gathered here to “wait” for tourists, most tram drivers have found other jobs to make a living. The fleet of trams transporting tourists is gathered to the parking lot… lying down and waiting All shops and souvenir stalls serving tourists at scenic spots on the island are “covered”. If about a month ago, they were busy from early morning to late evening to take guests in and out of the port, visit, eat, … now, Vung – a 7-seat driver transports tourists on island – free again. Sighing, the young man sadly shared: “In the past, I ran a lot, now it takes a long time to get people on the island to get here and there. I don’t know when the situation will improve again.” Sharing the same fate at the wharf with the car is a fleet of ships and canoes. Normally, at the lowest point, every day the Sa Ky – Ly Son route also has at least three trains to connect the island to the mainland. But now there is only one turn left to serve the travel needs of people and officials working on the island, absolutely no tourists. Being able to run seems to be better if you look at the scene of dozens of canoes on the big island – the small island that have to be lined up close to each other, sunbathing in the rain for more than a month now in the boat anchorage because the route is completely paralyzed. . Fuck it, go find a job “fire fighting” Experiencing three consecutive epidemics, plus the impact of natural disasters, most of the restaurants in the area have been “hit”. Along the mobile route around the island, there are dozens of shops specializing in serving tourists, which have almost closed over the past month. The shop lingered open, but only a few local guests. Anh An – Manager of Ly Son Basket Seafood Restaurant, said that since the day there was a ban on visitors to the island, his restaurant had temporarily stopped operating, all staff were laid off. This time, he focuses on repairing the restaurant and upgrading the facilities so that when the epidemic is under control, the ban is lifted and it reopens. All major restaurants on the island are closed “There are many difficulties, but united and fighting the epidemic is the prerequisite task of each person. I believe that we will come back to life when the epidemic is under control,” said An. Without tourists, the source of income is therefore completely cut off, so tourism workers in Ly Son are facing the challenge of “survival” when their work will never return to normal. . Taking advantage of the availability, many guides have chosen to post the seafood sale on their personal facebook page; most drivers of ships, canoes and cars get off the boat to go to the sea; hotel owners selling onions, garlic, soft drinks, etc. Everyone tries to find a job “fire fighting” to make ends meet. Nhung – the receptionist of a large hotel – has been out of work for more than a month due to the closure of the hotel, and has managed to find a temporary job at a cafe near her house. “Like I was lucky, because many people now just stay at home, now have a job, have an income to cover expenses is what many people want, but the specificity of the island district is not easy.” , Nhung shared. Mr. Le Van Ninh – Vice Chairman of Ly Son District People’s Committee, said that due to the influence of the epidemic, the island district is not currently welcoming tourists. This is a move to protect people against complicated developments of the disease in some localities. “We do not know when the tourism activities in the locality will be restored, currently the impact of the epidemic is very large, seriously affecting the income and life of people,” said Ninh. to speak.

Russia has developed a project to build a patrol boat capable of diving. Such a ship combines the main features and advantages of a submarine and a surface patrol vessel. The project is intended for export and is supposed to attract the interest of less affluent countries looking to upgrade their fleets. In mid-April 2021, Rubin Design Studio unveiled a new project. They provide background information about an unusual idea, upcoming implementation, and expected results. In addition, this design studio also shows a hologram of a patrol boat with submarine features. The new export-oriented project is named ‘Sentinel’ in Russian, with the English designation chosen as ‘Border and Offshore Submersible Sentry’ or ‘BOSS’ . Sentinel will most likely be marketed as ‘BOSS’ in the international market. The project developers note that modern patrol boats are relatively cheap – and due to their low cost, they attract the attention of poor countries. The main goal of such ships is to be able to prevent poaching and illegal fishing. “Project Sentinel proposes the construction of a ship capable of operating on water or under water. It is claimed that such a ship in a position on the water will be able to carry out official patrols, locate and arrest violators,” said Viktor Murahovsky, editor-in-chief of the magazine’ Homeland Arsenal’, said. “The underwater location is intended for covert surveillance of intruders, reconnaissance and even to avoid adverse weather conditions.” According to him, this is the first version of the diving patrol boat. In the future, the model can be modified to suit the wishes of foreign customers. The official image shows a ship that has the appearance of a submarine but has some uncharacteristic features of a submarine. The Sentinel had an elongated hull with a flat deck on which a limited-sized superstructure was placed. At the bow of the ship, the shield of the hydroacoustic complex antenna can be seen. On either side, forward of the superstructure control tower, there are extendable horizontal rudders. At the stern of the ship there is a compartment for storing motorboats that are brought on deck. As expected, the architecture and main dimensions of the ‘Sentinel’ are similar to the diesel-electric submarines designed under the old ‘Project 613’. This is a major project in the history of the Russian Navy and is very popular with foreign customers. Depending on configuration, ‘BOSS’ ships can be up to 60-70 meters in length and displace around 1,000 tons – approximately the size of an average 613 submarine. The full composition of the ship’s special systems and equipment is not specified. But this semi-submersible patrol boat is capable of carrying weapons of all kinds. It can be equipped with a small artillery complex, a missile system or torpedoes. For reconnaissance and inspection of other ships, the ship will be able to carry UAVs and motorboats. Sentinel can accommodate up to 42 people. This includes crew members, ship operators, and inspection teams responsible for dealing with violators. “The development of the Sentinel project is to meet the current requirements of the international market. Many countries are expressing interest in patrol boats. Thanks to the Sentinel project, Russian industry was able to gain a new position in the international market,” said expert Murahovsky.

With the new yacht, he can cruise around Tampa Bay and spend weekends with his family in the Bahamas. According to the Forbes , the estimated price of this superyacht is about 6 million USD. Previously, Brady also owned a $ 2 million Wajer 55S yacht and brought it to celebrate the Super Bowl championship (NFL final). Wajer 77 is the largest yacht to join the Wajer Yachts fleet, measuring 24 meters in length and designed for customers wishing to make long journeys within 400 nautical miles. . This sport yacht has 4 cabins and can accommodate up to 9 people, with separate entrances for improved privacy. All cabins have a private bathroom, a fully equipped showroom and a coffee bar with stunning sea views. In the outer deck area is a lounge area and sunbeds at the front of the boat, an additional seating area and dining area at the aft. Accessories include a snorkeling canoe, electric surfboard and a Turbojet 325 pod by Williams Jet Tender. It is expected that the rugby superstar will receive this superyacht in July this year.

According to Business Insider, a video clip recently released by Gravity Industries (UK) shows soldiers of the Royal Marines wearing a Jet Suit personal jet produced by this company. disembarking from the speedboat, ascending, and rapidly landing on the deck of the Royal Navy’s offshore patrol vessel HMS Tamar. In the video, British soldiers fly easily over the sea like the superhero character Iron Man (Iron Man) in the famous Hollywood movie of the same name. The Jet Suit personal jet suit helps the wearer move easily through the air. Photo: CNN The exercise was conducted to explore how to land on ships as an alternative to the traditional method. In a statement, the Royal Navy said the Royal Marines used the Jet Suit to practice the “visit, board, search and capture” (VBSS) operation. VBSS is considered one of the most complex and dangerous sea missions. Traditionally, soldiers would use speedboats to approach warships and use rope ladders to climb or conduct landings from helicopters with the support of snipers and drones. Both of these methods require a lot of time to prepare the means. Meanwhile, with a personal jet suit, a soldier can fly up from a speedboat, land on a ship and then release a rope ladder for teammates to climb onto the ship. The images in the video clip show the Jet Suit’s ability to support soldiers on landing missions on board ships. “The Jet Suit provides extremely rapid access to any area of ​​the target ship, making it convenient for soldiers to carry weapons and easily move or retreat,” said Gravity Industries. . This is a tactical revolution for many special forces and can be applied more widely than just landing on ships.” With an operation time of 8 minutes, the Jet Suit personal jet made by Gravity Industries is equipped with 5 mini jet engines, including 4 engines attached to the arms and one on the back. Thanks to this design, the user can easily adjust the flight direction as desired. After wearing the Jet Suit, the user can fly at speeds up to 88km/h. This technology is a big step forward in making scenes from sci-fi movies come to life. British inventor Richard Browning, founder of Gravity Industries and a former member of the British Royal Marines, has worn Jet Suits to show the world many times and has been dubbed “Real-life Iron Man real”. Commenting on the Moskovsky Komsomolets newspaper, Russian military expert Vladimir Gundarov said that, like the supporting skeleton or invisibility cloak, personal jet suits will not be widely used in military units. . “All special equipment will be provided to the special forces and can be used in an emergency,” said Vladimir Gundarov. Besides the obvious advantages, Boris Gundarov said that personal jet suits also have disadvantages such as the lack of stealth, jet engines emitting a lot of noise and emitting a lot of heat. A person flying in the air with a personal jet suit is an easy target for any weapon, the expert notes. It is not clear how effective the Jet Suit will be if used on the battlefield, but it is clear that this personal jet suit will need to be improved to overcome some disadvantages that can endanger soldiers. as well as extending the operation time to match combat operations.

[…] When I first came to Saigon in the summer of 1972, my father let me go by plane. Perhaps, it was an unforgettable experience with the eagerness of a 13-year-old boy to go out for the first time in his life by such modern means, to a famous and magnificent city known only through books, television or songs; in other words, is somewhere too splendid, luxurious only in dreams.. The father and son went into the house of a relative whom my father called aunt. I remember, the old woman was about 70 years old, her hair was white, and her hair was in a neat bun. A small house in an alley on Yen Do Street (now Ly Chinh Thang), fell in love a few sections. There was a smell behind the house that I couldn’t describe what it was, years later I kept calling it “the smell of Saigon”, rising from the water below (visible through the cracks in the wooden floor). I just wanted to be taken to the street by my father, somewhere to escape this dark smell. However, that family was large and my father had to sit down and talk to them so many things that I could only wander in front of the house looking at the restaurants in the alley, not daring to step out behind, just afraid of encountering the horrible smell. that great. Then I gradually got used to the smell (taste) of Saigon (tired, lack, hunger, despair, hope, joy, sadness…) after having seven years of studying and working here. In the evenings when I go to teach about cycling uphill to Kieu Bridge, I think, sometimes it is the color and smell of canal water that makes it hard for people to forget Saigon. Many years later, when I returned to Nha Trang to work, I still had business trips to Saigon only to realize, if I had a vacation to go somewhere, the first place I would choose was still Saigon. Until the kids went to school here, my trips became more frequent. Saigon book, nostalgia roaming. Photo: ChiBooks. Ever since the discovery of a Saigon scented with porcelain flowers, sweet with the scent of the wall, I turned back the route of walking, did not go to Gia Dinh park but changed direction to the embankment. I can turn any way from Phan Xich Long. Sometimes I wander in small alleys, through spontaneous markets serving small villages that have been associated with the (probably) eternal morning rhythm, from the butcher to the vegetable shop. The alleys of Saigon are not much different from when I was 13 years old until now, more than 50 years. Still the greeting with a slightly southern accent, such innocent and resigned female figures. And even though intentionally… lost my way, I still reached the embankment. The sun was just rising, a sharp, round pink slowly emerged behind the tall buildings. The wind caresses. Some people walk, people swing on gym equipment, people sit on stone benches… The road around the embankment is very empty in the morning, making me see how spacious Saigon is. Passing a garbage collection station, I stopped and observed the daily work of the workers of the urban environment company. The crane from above picks up the trash cans to the canoes parked below. There are two workers to pick up and stow. The canoe started to back up when there were enough barrels and stopped a dense group of water hyacinths, each with a club, pulling the water hyacinth up and putting it in the box. The other canoes continued to run in different directions. I had mornings walking to the embankment, enjoying the fresh air, completely cool and no longer had the “smell of Saigon” of the age of 13. In the free evening, I invited my children to drive to the embankment and watch. The apartment block is printed on the black sky, there are small bright squares, colorful lights, as beautiful as a picture. When looking at the lonely moon, how vast is the sky! When I go to work, before going home, I run around the section of Kieu Bridge – Hoang Hoa Tham Bridge – Tran Khanh Du Bridge to see a row of high-rise buildings “lighting” behind the colorful periwinkle flowers, rows of green ornamental areca trees. , rows of white and red porcelain trees, rows of thin-walled micro-wings, purple mausoleums, yellow scallops… and turned the car around when it hit the roadblock at the construction site. Just remember, all these years in and out of Saigon, I’ve never driven along the Nhieu Loc canal, but heard it’s just over eight kilometers. I asked my son, the middle generation 9X, in the old summers when my mother let me go to Saigon to play, did I ever smell the bad smell of this channel. My child answered no. For a moment, life is long, then you will taste the “smell” of Saigon, the smell of life, but completely no longer have the Saigon smell of when I was 13… Tell your children, when you are tired, try to ignore all the troubles, hustles, fights, and hustles out there and think of Saigon’s porcelain-scented moon seasons like this one to forget and recharge. next step!

“Back then, my biggest concern was my homework and whether any boy I liked would keep an eye on me. Now, what I’m most concerned about is whether I have enough gel on my hands. bacteria, and is the discomfort in the throat related to Covid-19?” Wong shared on South China Morning Post . Wong thinks millennials like her are pursuing Y2K fashion as a way of nostalgia for the past. This is not a new trend, it has been growing in recent years and is starting to become more popular. Britney Spears is considered the icon of Y2K fashion. Rotating fashion The return of Y2K fashion is fueled by Gen Z (those born in 1995 or later), inspired by 1990s and early 2000s fashion. It’s not hard to come across social media stars Young people show their style when wearing clothes according to the “trend” of decades ago. Y2K style is associated with Keira Knightley images on the red carpet with a small white shirt and low-rise jeans, party girls like Paris Hilton and Kim Kardashian in sportswear or lace-up tops, skirts baby pink short, or singer Britney Spears in any of her outfits. “We see that image in today’s youth, who want to be the most stylish when they appear. We not only see it on the streets but big fashion brands are also accepting the return. Tom Ford’s fall/winter 2020 collection sees the return of pantyhose on the catwalk,” Wong said. A campaign video by Skims, released to promote the 2021 Velour collection, even features Hilton and Kardashian in 2003-style tracksuits. In 2002, a collaboration between Louis Vuitton and Japanese contemporary artist Takashi Murakami gave the luxury label a playful, youthful look using multicolored monogram prints and cherry blossoms. . The mix of art and fashion became popular and this collaboration lasted until 2015, making it a trendy trend. Many social media stars return to Y2K fashion, preferring to wear crop tops and wide-leg pants. Crop tops, kid’s t-shirts or bustier tops, considered classics of the 2000s, are making a comeback. Stars like Spears, Lindsay Lohan, and Jessica Simpson all love the cut-out outfits. Sarah Jessica Parker wore a lot of crop tops and strapless tops when she played Carrie Bradshaw in “Sex and the City”. On the red carpet of the Oscars 2021, actress Zendaya surprised by wearing a yellow Valentino couture dress with cutouts in the front. She also wore a bra with a Tom Ford bust at the 2020 Critics’ Choice Awards. Supermodel Bella Hadid and “Y2K fashion queen” Emily Ratajkowski also often appear with crop tops. Gen Z showed interest in Y2K fashion such as wide-leg pants, flared pants or low-rise pants. In the early 2000s, many big stars made flared pants a fashion icon. At the 2004 Billboard Music Awards, Alicia Keys made an impression when wearing flared pants. Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen wore flared jeans on the red carpet in the 2000s, and Mischa Barton went viral at the 2004 Kids’ Choice Awards with these pants. Wedge shoes have also made a comeback thanks to the popularity of social media, as stars like Ariana Grande and Gigi Hadid have both appeared in these shoes. This style of shoe, which was a “craze” in the late 1970s, suddenly reached new heights in the mid-1990s thanks to the promotion of the Spice Girls stars. The wedge shoe style, which was popular in the mid-1990s, is also popular among young people today.

Not all but most of the boats on Cai Rang floating market often hang what they sell. For example, a fruit seller will hang that fruit. Or the vegetable seller will hang vegetables… This is the “hanging something for sale” culture of the famous floating market in the West. Photo: Anh Tu. When they need to sell canoes or boats, people will hang roof sheets or pandan boats. This is also known as “hanging leaves to sell boats”. Photo: Anh Tu. Gordon Ramsay used to sit on a boat selling vermicelli and noodles on Cai Rang market. This is the commemoration when the “Chef King” performed the show “Gordon’s Great Escape”, recorded in 2009 and broadcast globally in 2010. Photo: Aloviet. Aunt Hai was the one who received compliments from the famous chef. Aunt Hai’s vermicelli and noodle soup used to be specialties of the floating market. However, at present, Aunt Hai no longer sells goods on Cai Rang floating market. Photo: Pham Ngon. The time of the fair starts quite early, from about 4-5am and ends at 8-9am. The best time to explore the market is 5am. Visitors can rent a small boat separately or join a group with a large boat. Photo: Pham Ngon. The market was formed in the first half of the 20th century. At this time, the land travel of the river was not yet developed. Photo: Asianway Travel. Exactly on March 10, 2016, Cai Rang floating market culture was recognized as a national intangible cultural heritage. Photo: Tripadvisor.

Abundant green fruit Tran Xuan An, Chairman of Thang Hai Commune Farmers’ Association (Ham Tan district, Binh Thuan), seemed to think something, so he didn’t answer until I stopped the car because of the intersection in front of me. At this moment, he looked over at me, clearly: “This place is in the middle of Suoi Tu village, if running straight is Be mountain, it is also the place where a lot of rubber plantation and timber are planted. Turn left to go to Suoi Bang village, The place where Nuoc Man stream is located, across the stream is Binh Chau land (Ba Ria – Vung Tau). From this place running to Nuoc Man stream, there are 151 ha of black pepper cow leather, golden rice longan and about 132 ha of Taiwanese mango grafted with Thai mangoes. Also from this place, turn right, you will go to a place to plant citrus fruits such as grapefruit, tangerine, jackfruit … More than 150 hectares, not less “. I opened the car door and walked out with An. Around the immense green color of many kinds of fruit trees, it stretches to the eye. The air smelled of fruit and fruit around here, of the remaining forest trees, mixed with the scent of grass, the scent of named and unnamed flowers in the earth. The scent of the same green color makes people feel like they are in a very peaceful place. Tran Xuan An slowly: “Earlier, you said Suoi Tu and Suoi Bang are forest land. Exactly! In the 80’s of the twentieth century, the people of Quang Tri, from whom I lived in Thang Hai, still went to the forest of Suoi Bang, Suoi Tu. Everything changed after the government decided to set up a socio-economic project on 400 hectares of impoverished forest, in 1990, to provide accommodation and production for free migrants. decades ago. As a result, many westerners flocked to Thang Hai to buy land from people granted by the project. Many of them have experience growing fruit trees. So the new longan gardens, new intensive farming techniques, are applied here. After the label is mango, rubber. Sometimes, many families cut down longan, mango, and grow rubber because latex is priced well. If there is no tight vicious circle – planted due to the short-term devaluation and profitability, the area of ​​fruit trees of all kinds of Thang Hai must be over 1,000 hectares, not just 670 hectares, of which more than 500 hectares for harvest. like nowadays. Mr. Vo Van Sot in a 5-hectare avocado orchard in Suoi Bang village Nearly drunk, far away, remember I am in Thang Hai, the most southern locality in Binh Thuan province. This place was still a poor land 20 years ago. There was no restaurant along the commune more than 10 km. People on the road had to squeeze their stomachs, trying to run across Nuoc Man stream, to Binh Chau to buy rice. Some year of my childhood, this place is still primitive forest. There is a natural North – South road running through. Occasionally a few people walk, u bring loneliness because of the four bureaucratic, wild. This is the path that Nguyen Thong, when he held the position of a monastic academy during the Tu Duc dynasty, during his trip from Long Thanh to Phuoc Tuy (Ba Ria), to Binh Thuan expressed exclamation: “Where do you call? ? / In the evening, the voice is more melancholic / The customer is tired and wants to rest / Desperate in the deep woods! / The side of the road is hungry, / The piece of coat is dewdrops “. Luckily, on this trip I met An. Just over 50 years old, but An has more than 30 years working as a farmer, then an agricultural worker, so he has the knowledge of a local earthquake. In the whole commune, there are 1,510 households and 800 households specializing in farming. Thang Hai has 6,078 people, most of whom stick to their whole life with fruit trees, emulate creativity, turn the locality into a fruit tree area of ​​Ham Tan. Now, talking about fruit trees in Binh Thuan is Thang Hai, referring to the Thang Hai yellow rice boat label that is certified by the Department of Intellectual Property of the geographical indication. In the middle of a canoe garden in Thang Hai Every year, before the Lunar New Year and 4 months later, Thang Hai is the season of Thai grafted Taiwanese mango, Hoa Loc mango, avocado off-season. May and June are tangerine season. Is there any place in Binh Thuan where there are tangerines and fruits that are as big as a small ball, thin and light when ripe, and juicy? This mandarin, Binh Chau’s daughter on the other side of the river often comes to buy, saying that squeezing water is healthy and bright. July to October is the season of longan, golden rice, longan pepper cow skin. This is the time at Suoi Bang everywhere, there is a bright white color of the net against the bat eating longan; The season of howling birds, red-headed red-beaked redbirds fly back from Be mountain, the archipelago all day on the broad canopy longan trees, spread out like a giant parachute. This is the season when Suoi Bang girls’ flesh is always incubated in a passionate aroma, when near, they can get drunk, they will remember when going far away, making truck drivers aged 19 and 20 go to Suoi Bang to eat food, keep lingering. don’t want to go home. November of the calendar year onwards, the scent of longan still lingers in the leftover gardens, making the girls even more awake, flinching under the thin blanket, while outside the bat has not stopped pulling her flock. , looking all night. After November is the early Thai jackfruit season. Thai jackfruit runs near the street market as La Gi, Ham Tan. After this time, when Tet comes, there are green skin pomelo. Mr. Tran Xuan An, Chairman of Thang Hai Commune Farmers Association, in his green skin pomelo garden I asked: “Do garden owners here focus on green – clean products?”. An replied softly: “Nearly 100% of garden owners aim for quality and safety for consumers. They should eat it or not, thanks to that factor.” Then An determinedly dragged me in to meet Vu Cong Hoan. Hoan is a garden owner, from the North. Six years ago, Hoan came to Thang Hai, heard stories of gardening and was born eager, so he invested in gardening, although his wife advised to open a luxury hotel that was both comfortable and not far away. “Buying 13 hectares of land, I block streams, build dams to get water. Design a sprinkler system; use a large amount of organic fertilizer to improve the soil before thinking about growing green skin grapefruit” – Hoan said. The Hoan house is quiet and spacious in the middle of the pomelo garden. The blue-skinned grapefruits at the end of the crop were the size of a ball, swinging just a few dozen feet from where I was sitting. Hoan said there are 9 ha of green skin pomelo with 3,600 trees and 4 ha of longan in the garden. On average, each pomelo tree gives 30 fruits, each fruit is about 2.2 kg, the average price is 35,000 VND / kg; each tree collected over 2.5 million dong, or nearly 900 million dong / ha. Hoan does not use inorganic fertilizers, so no matter how strict the consumer is, he can still buy all the grapefruit in his garden. “Last New Year, my grapefruit gave out any vehicle that ran out of cars. So much so that, when I no longer sell, I spend some of the fruit delivered to a center to export agricultural products to Europe because they have signed off the contract. traders pulled the whole group into the garden “. Eyes see headphones The last thing on the road is about a bit economical color scheme. Tran Xuan An told Thang Hai that in the beginning of 2021, there were only 35 poor households out of a total of 1,510 households. Average people’s income is nearly 40 million VND / person / year. Can not forget that Thang Hai is from a forested area, people live destitute, lack before and after, change all jobs in the year, not to mention a large number of children divorced and divorced, looking for jobs in Ho Chi Minh City. It seems that thanks to the change of cultivars, towards plants suitable to the soil, associated with the consumption market, Thang Hai has become a production place of agricultural products, typically the golden rice variety. has been present in major supermarkets. Now, back to Thang Hai is back to the estate of 5-20 ha. About 50% of Thang Hai people today are farmers in their own fields and gardens, the next day they can be workers of the farms with working days of 300,000-350,000 VND / day. The way to go up of Thang Hai, with a few dozen billionaires originating from farmers, typically Ha Thanh Chanh, Vo Van Sot … earning a few billion dong of goods / year, shows the strength of a countryside, as well as the the acumen and determination of the commune leaders. Tran Xuan An also told me that if possible, in April, the mango season, go back to Thang Hai to see and hear how traders come here to buy goods. I promised An that he would stop by because he wanted to learn about the retired pilot, how to build streams and dams to water 13 hectares of his crops during the sunny months.

The design of a patrol boat capable of diving under water in the Sentinel project. Photo: TASS This is an affordable submarine for countries with a modest defense budget. The new ship combines the features and advantages of submarines with surface patrol boats. This export-specific project, is expected to attract the attention of smaller countries looking to upgrade their fleets. The purpose of the project “BOSS” In mid-April 2021, the Rubin Central Marine Technical Design Bureau unveiled a new project. The agency provided background information on the project to build a special patrol boat, its progress and expected results. Along with that, is a three-dimensional image of a patrol ship with submarine features. The project dedicated to export is called “Sentinel” in Russian, and the English name is “BOSS (short for Border and Offshore Submersible Sentry). The Sentinel will most likely be marketed on the national market as “BOSS”. The cost of modern patrol boats is relatively low, making them suitable for countries with small budgets, project developers note. The aim of these ships is to prevent poaching and illegal fishing. In addition, they can also be used as security ships, lifeboats or for research purposes. Viktor Murahovsk – editor-in-chief of Homeland Arsenal magazine said: “The Sentinel project proposes building a ship capable of operating both above and below the water. When operating on water, it can patrol, identify and arrest offenders. When operating under water, it will secretly spy on intruders, scout and avoid bad weather while on mission. According to Viktor Murahovsky, the first version of the patrol diving boat will have the above characteristics, in the future they will be modified to meet the needs of foreign customers. Technical characteristics Officially released photos show that this ship takes the form of a submarine but has some properties that are not typical of those operating under water. The Sentinel has a rather long hull with a flat deck, on deck there is a cockpit with a limited size. In the bow is equipped with hydrophonic complex antenna. The ship has a conical control tower with horizontal rudders. At the stern, there was a compartment for the motorboats of the patrol teams. According to published information, in terms of architecture and size, the ship resembles the project 613 diesel-electric submarines built in the 1950s. It is the largest project in the history of the Russian Navy and is foreign customers are very popular. Depending on configuration, the Sentinel patrol boat will be 60 to 70 meters in length, displacing about 1,000 tons. The full details of the ship’s special systems and equipment are not yet clear. However, this patrol ship is believed to be able to carry weapons such as torpedoes, missile systems, and small caliber artillery platforms. To perform patrol and surveillance tasks, the ship will be equipped with unmanned aircraft (UAV) capable of flying for many hours continuously and canoe. A crew of 42 people, including a patrol team, is responsible for handling violators. Advantage over foreign competitors Expert Viktor Murahovsk said: “The development of the Sentinel project is aimed at meeting the current needs of the international market. Many countries are paying special attention to patrol boats. Thanks to this project, the Russian defense industry can gain a new position in the international market ”. To win against foreign competitors, the new patrol ship must have certain advantages, outperforming its competitors. One of the Sentinel’s advantages is to abandon the traditional form of a surface ship to a combination of a patrol boat and a submarine. “With the basic functionality of surface ships, the Sentinel can patrol and arrest violators just like other patrol boats. In addition, due to its built-in weaponry, it can provide the necessary combat capabilities, meeting the requirements for surface ships. On the other hand, diving will help the ship be stealthy and perform missions below the water, as well as provide other advantages, ”concluded Viktor Murahovsk. Most importantly, the Sentinel is not a specialized train, but a multi-purpose ship. Its equipment and weapons will be determined by the customer, depending on their needs. In the Sentinel project there are both simply minimally equipped patrol boats and state-of-the-art “powerful hunters” capable of destroying underwater and surface targets. Flexibility in using this vessel type can be an important competitive advantage.

Reputation of the hero From the pier in Tam Thon Hiep commune, Can Gio district, we followed a canoe to the headquarters of Division 1 – a forest protection unit belonging to the Can Gio Mangrove Management Board (MB). In the midst of the immense water waves, talent Nguyen Hoang Phi, an employee of Can Gio Mangrove Management Board, skillfully allowed a canoe to turn the waves of Long Tau River towards the Dua River, soaring. The wind winds all four sides, taking a full breath, it feels like all the freshness, freshness of the sea, the green forest is going deep into the chest. Belonging to the next generation, he has never held a gun to fight in fierce war days, but when it comes to Rung Sac, Phi can never stop talking. Just right on the Long Tau river, he proudly: “This is a” graveyard “buried hundreds of enemy warships, including many military transport ships with a tonnage of tens of thousands of tons. Come is the river that contributes to the honor of the heroic Rung Sac “. The Standing Deputy Secretary of Ho Chi Minh City Party Committee Tran Luu Quang planted a souvenir tree at Rung Sac Square on April 27, on the occasion of the People’s Committee of the city announcing the Prime Minister’s decision to recognize Can Gio district meeting the new rural standard. 2020 Photo: HOANG Trieu In order to decipher this strategic position, in order to block the enemy’s military supply path, protect our supply forces, on April 15, 1966, the Regional Command decided to establish the Special Forest Military Zone. Sac (later renamed to Group 10 Special Forces of Rung Sac). Since then, Rung Sac is within the range of enemy destruction. Can Gio Mangrove Management Board is managing and protecting 34,713.64 ha of forest and forestry land, of which forest area accounts for 32,446.44 ha; allotted forest protection to 133 households and 11 units. Anh Phi said that in the early years of the resistance war against the US, the forest was dense with trees. But from 1964 onwards, more than 4 million liters of chemicals, 2 million tons of bombs and ammunition of the enemy fell down to devastate, making Rung Sac almost bare. The special mission combatants Rung Sac fell into poverty in the middle of the wild. However, thanks to the “natural la geotung” map with a series of canals, forest trees form favorable walls for guerrilla tactics, shielding our troops from the eyes of the enemy, along with our products. Heaven bestowed and the warfare inherent in the people, Rung Sac base was still not wavering. Residents of the forest After half an hour of floating, the canoe took us to Division 1 headquarters. It was a grade 4 house built on a triangular islet in Tam Thôn Hiệp commune overlooking the Dua River, surrounded by marshland. drown. This is the workplace and living place of 4 officers, employees, managers of 14 households and 28 employees of the subdivision. Mr. Tran Van Ho, Head of Division 1, picked us up and took us around the headquarters. What caught our eyes was the simple leaf kitchen, full of black pots and pans. Mr. Ho pointed to a wood stove hidden in the corner, and said that in the first wave, this wind was very rare. To save money, people only use firewood for cooking. In Can Gio forest, green vegetables are also precious because the soil here is almost completely acidic. If you want to grow vegetables, you need to invest in soil, manure and fresh water from the shore. However, the most precious is still fresh water. Only the rainwater tanks located around the Division 1 headquarters, Mr. Ho explained: “The water here is 120,000 VND / block, but sometimes there are boats changing. Therefore, the subdivision is equipped with these tanks to catch the water. rain water used. Many households around, when the water runs out, often stop by and ask, whoever wants to scoop as much as possible “. Telephone waves in Rung Sac are “luxury”. Where the waves can be caught, the forest guard leaves the phone “catchy” like this. Photo: TUYET TRINH Seeing that on a number of pillars in the kitchen where there are many horizontal plastic bottles, we asked curiously, Mr. Ho replied: “This is the phone holder to … catch the signal”. It turns out, not only lack of necessities, but also the telephone signal here is a “luxury”. Where you can catch the phone signal, you tie up bottles like this to mark it. Lack of and many things, Mr. Ho has been sticking to the forest for more than 20 years. “So attached, now I no longer think about going ashore looking for another job. Getting acquainted with the muddy smell, the taste of salty water here and I can not leave,” – he said, his eyes dazed. up steadiness, steadfastness. Mr. Ho took us to visit the people of the second generation who are continuing their parents to protect and preserve Sac Forest. The first place we visited was the family of Mr. Nguyen Hoang Phien – brother of Phi, the leader of Division 1 Self-Management Group. Session said that his father, Mr. Nguyen Van No, was one of the 10 first forest keepers in Rung Sac. In 2012, Phien succeeded his father, “partly due to a difficult family and unable to go to school; a part has attached blood and flesh to each tree, the wave of when my brothers were in a hurry to practice speaking” . The session emphasized that the most important job of contracted households here is forest patrol. Mr. Phien’s family is managing 109 hectares, on average, each month, he patrols 20-30 times regardless of day and night, including traveling alone and with self-management team. Patrols must be done regularly to promptly detect if forest loggers or wildlife have appeared. Leaving Mr. Phien’s house, we went to the forest post of Mr. Tran Minh Tung’s family. Canoes run in the middle of the immense Sac Forest, Mr. Ho shows us how to distinguish fish, mangrove, tiger, parrot … covered like “roofs”. In more than 32,447 hectares of forest today, there are over 60 species of plants, each having its own role in the “war” with the sea. He said: “In it, mangroves play the role of reinforcing the battlefield, because with the intricate roots, the tall and wide foliage, it can retain what is most necessary that water has brought to the earth”. Launching our eyes around, we were very pleased with the blue landscape. It is hard to imagine this is a land that once suffered from enemy bombs and chemical toxins decades ago. The green color of the forest has covered all traces of the war, making it difficult for visitors to imagine this is a land once destroyed by bombs. Talking about the revival of this dead land, it must be mentioned the efforts of tens of thousands of people from all over the districts of Saigon – Ho Chi Minh City, the core of the youth volunteer force has poured in here to plant trees and rejuvenate. forest creation. Among those people was Mrs. Dinh Thi Hong, the mother of Mr. Tran Minh Tung. Like the Phi – Phien brothers, Tung also had a childhood associated with Rung Sac – Can Gio. When he was a child, he went with his mother to plant forests. Growing up, thanks to planting forests, he met his wife today. Later, he and his wife stayed in Can Gio, replacing their mother to keep the forest. In the afternoon, the canoe took us back to the pier. The sudden beating in the deep water made us startled because we remembered the stories about the water in the past where many crocodiles were hiding and stalking this person. In the forest there are many dangers, poor living conditions. However, the residents that we have met or known through the story have never intended to leave the forest to live on shore. Many people stick to their parents’ career, others – like Tung and his wife – are unable to leave a peaceful life thanks to being surrounded by mother nature here. “We stick wherever we go, we can do everything together. That is happy enough” – Mr. Tung expressed. In the distance, looking at the identical mangrove forests that have opened up the direction of ecotourism development for Can Gio, we again silently thank the residents of Rung Sac who have been sticking to this day. The most fear is deforestation At night, driving a motorboat to patrol and guard the forest, there are all kinds of dangers waiting for unarmed people like Nguyen Hoang Phien if they accidentally face a logger or a wild beast. We asked Phien if he was afraid, he laughed: “The most fearful thing is the loss of the forest”. “In the past, following my father to the forest, I have many times encountered loggers and” lash out “on the river. Later, due to good propaganda and awareness raising for the people, there is no longer a phenomenon. cutting trees, deforestation “- Mr. Phien said.

Single diaspora domain Lung Leng village, Sa Binh commune, Sa Thay district, Kon Tum is like a small “oasis” surrounded by Plei Krong hydroelectric lake. Here, in addition to making noodles and growing industrial crops, every morning the men in the village row a canoe to go fishing. And few people know that Lung Leng village is like a small “oasis” surrounded by Plei Krong hydroelectric lake. Here, in addition to making noodles and growing industrial crops, every morning the men in the village row a canoe to go fishing. Lung Leng is also an archaeological site providing a rich system of monuments and artifacts of a prehistoric Central Highlands society. Many families in Lung Leng still keep their canoes Elder A Hyh (in Lung Leng village) over the past few decades has witnessed many poisonous vines. The carpentry boat craft of Lung Leng village, Sa Binh commune, Sa Thay district had a peak time. In the past, the canoe was the main means to help the people of this Sesan line go further and especially when returning from the field every afternoon, the boats were always full of products that nature gave … For the villagers. In the past, the boat was a part of the property like a buffalo, a raft, and a set of gongs. Old Ahoh dreamily remembers the glorious old days. Old A Hyh does not know how old he is, he only remembers to bring the last single boat that he made last two or three years. “That day someone from the village passed by asking me to build a canoe to go down the Po Ko stream to catch the fish” – Old Ahoh said. Over the seasons, old A Hyh’s feet were slow, his back was getting tired, but the old craftsman was still diligently carrying his ax in the woods for a week, following the sound of the puffer looking for a tree, and then passing away. For a few days, when it was carved into the carve, the boat smelled of wood and stars was worshiped in the temple and taken down the river … “The wooden boat is not only for the Ja Rai people, but most of the ethnic people living by the rivers do. However, not everyone knows how to make a beautiful boat, ”said Old Ahoh. The old man told in detail the steps to make the boat quite meticulously, from selecting trees, setting the size, making the bow and stern, cutting the boat bed, making the boat body, making the boat bottom, making the boat beautiful, boat alignment, paddle. The polome and the shrine are the two most durable boat types. When made of this tree, the wood will not crack, very lightly, float in the water without being submerged. Because of its quality, a single canoe has a lifespan of 5 – 10 years, and a “longevity” to 20-30 years. Timber used to hike the canoe must meet the conditions such as large body with a diameter of 0.6 – 1m, and a height of 7 – 10m. The wood should be soft and malleable when fresh and when it is dry it is light, not warping in the sun or when it is submerged in water. If the tree is located near a residential area, close to the river or lake, it will be more profitable for the transportation and testing process when the boat is completed. One of the things to note is that when choosing a hewn timber tree, the tree does not have puffiness, there are not many wooden hooks. The corked trees are more likely to crack when the boat is in use in the future. Trees have a lot of expensive, very difficult to cut. The tools used to make the canoe used to only have ax, machete and horizontal ax to make. The bottom of the boat is usually hewn, smooth, with a thickness of 5cm or more. The small, flat bottom of the boat will create a balance for the boat when transporting, helping the boatman to be convenient to use. Must be approved by the Forest Nurse Old A Hyh said that all things forest and mountains have the Prince (gods). Forests are the places where the mountain Yàng dwells in, the tree temple lives, and the temple of the river is born. Therefore, in order to have wood to hew the wooden boat, one must buy offerings to the temple. A single wooden boat has to go through many different rituals such as offering to cut trees, offering to bring trees to the village, offering to lower the boat … According to the old Penh, if the tree felling is not approved by the Yàng, In an uncertain situation, the chiseled boat suddenly cracks, breaks or is quickly damaged when used. In addition to the difficulty of raw materials, there are still boat workers here After the hewn boat is finished, an important step is to test the boat on the waterways to ensure the boat is balanced, surfing, easy and safe transportation; Artisans have to bring boats to rivers and lakes for assessment and calibration. After the crafting was completed, the boat was turned upside down and used the heat of the fire to smooth the trough. The wood carved from the tree trunk must be used to cook the rice cooker to show loyalty to Yàng. In the midst of the blue sky of the great, in the roar of the rapids, the boat still glides gently like a petal who dropped on the river. Legend on the drifting line In Sa Binh commune, only Lung Leng village has a canoe. Everyone in the village knows how to craft a boat, but only a few people know about the balance, nose and tail section, of which the most talented is Old A Hyh, or A Nho – one of the famous artisans. in the construction of the canoe. If in the villages of ethnic minorities struggling to worry about losing a single wooden boat, in Lung Leng village, that worry seems to have eased somewhat. In addition to the difficulty of raw materials, here are still the craftsmen, the people who make the boats like Old A Hyh, the A Nho craftsman, and there are young people who tend to the traditions such as A Dut, A Luoi, A Tuan. Elder A Hyh pointed at the canoe boats lying on the river wharf, telling us in a sad voice: “With villagers here, nowadays, only a few families use boats to go fishing. in the river. Is it only in competitions, festivals, or sailing in the Ningnong season! ” Boat racing on the rivers Dak Bla, Kon Brai, Po Ko, Se San has been around for a long time, initially spontaneous races between young people when rowing across the river to get to the fields. Bigger is a challenging challenge race between the youths from one village to the other during the festive season. This is the basis for forming the traditional canoe boat race in Kon Tum province in the beginning of the new spring. For the village boy, good boating and good fishing are one of the criteria for the girls to choose to be a warrior. Therefore, becoming a good rower, especially a good boat racer, is always the goal of each village’s striving. And so on and on, but spring is the season where the river resounds with glorious poetic songs. Rowing canoe is very strenuous work A current fact is that, despite its special significance, associated with the cultural life of ethnic minorities living along rivers and lakes in Kon Tum province, however, due to the development of preservation, conservation of canoeing and cultural activities related to canoe boats have been significantly affected. Specifically, the number of canoe boats in the villages has been decreasing over time due to damage during use. Meanwhile, the policy of forest management and protection has been strictly implemented, thus significantly affecting the process of searching and exploiting forest timber to make a wooden boat of the people. Over time, the forest recedes more and more, the large timber makes boats scarce. Especially the appearance of motorbikes made the river fun cool. People are racing to sell boats. Each boat that is still in use for over ten years only costs a few hundred to 1 million dong depending on the size and size. Still know that it can’t be helped but Old A Hyh still feels … From past to present, not only a bridge connecting the two banks, helping ethnic minorities, the image of a single boat associated with the process of labor and production of ethnic minorities. Kon Tum province is also a strong source of inspiration for a contingent of creative artists in various types of arts such as poetry, music, photography, painting and statues. In particular, the unique boat is also a unique means to serve tourism activities to experience and explore in Kon Tum river region.
