Sink over time Go Boi, a famous harbor, a bustling fishing village more than 400 years ago. This is the place where in the novel series “Con River in the flood season”, writer Nguyen Mong Giac describes it as an important saltwater harbor, an important focal point of communication with Dang Trong – Dang Ngoai, a place to receive migrations. From the North to the South, it was the place (along with the Thi Nai estuary) of the Tay Son Dynasty that sent naval troops to conquer the South to defeat the North. A tributary of the Con River flows at the foot of Banh It tower The side of Duong Long tower. Photo: TRUNG PHUONG Late in the afternoon, standing on Go Boi bridge watching the water of the Con River billowing, feeling strangely buoyant, seeing historical lines flowing layer by layer across the bridge. Remember the folk song that your mother used to lull you: “One day, no one will leave anyone / Only embroidery should be sharpened to make needles”, the lullaby voice sounds like a sad, sad Nam song. How much water has passed from the Con River over Go Boi Bridge, over the years has buried this historic saltwater harbour. And maybe it’s not economical so people don’t need to dredge it, just let it sink over time. But the image of the gourd sailing across the country, from the Central to the North, to the South, even through Nam Vang (Cambodia)… will never fade in the memories of the people in my hometown. Going to Go Boi, one must remember poets Xuan Dieu and Han Mac Tu. Xuan Dieu was born here, used to write love poems about Go Boi and Tuy Phuoc: “Sleeping in Tuy Phuoc is to not sleep at night The crickets stay awake with me all year round Wake up the stars, wake up the branches At night, the homeland loves the scent of the land.” Xuan Dieu could not sleep because simply: “Can’t sleep because the strong wind blowing from the sea keeps reminding / When my mother was born / I breathed the fish sauce of thousands of Go Boi…”. According to Hoai Thanh – Hoai Chan in “Vietnamese poets”, poets living in Binh Dinh are often haunted by the moonlight. The moon in Binh Dinh was strangely beautiful, mysterious or strange, inspired by Che Lan Vien, Quach Tan, Han Mac Tu, Yen Lan… Even later, Van Cao went to Quy Nhon to play and discovered Quy Nhon beach. like a half moon: “Half moon/Night/Lying on the sea sand…”. Most of the talented Vietnamese poets and artists who have met in Quy Nhon, all love the mysterious moon, meditate in Binh Dinh, hanging loosely on the lonely Cham towers. Even Trinh Cong Son is still haunted by the ancient towers, “hearing the autumn leaves and the rain rustling the little heels…” (Old Diem). Watching the magical moon Han Mac Tu also lived in Go Boi, because here is still the grave of the poet Han’s mother. It is said that at that time, the mother and son of the Han poets went to Go Boi to cure leprosy for Korea but in the end failed, the mother was lying eternally in Go Boi, the child was lying down watching the fanciful Binh Dinh moon in Ghenh Rang… read documents that know Han poet has known Xuan Dieu since then, when Han Mac Tu wrote to Xuan Dieu: “I sent you my collection of poems, because reading your poems, I find my pain is greatly relieved”. The land of Go Boi also once harbored the famous poet Han Mac Tu. And his best and most painful poems were written in this land. Go to Go Boi, look back up the Banh It tower, up to Do Ban citadel, remember the poets Yen Lan, Che Lan Vien – the names that make up the famous “Ban Thanh four friends”. Yen Lan is not only famous for “Ben My Lang”, he also has many other important contributions in the process of modern Vietnamese poetry. In the memoir “Yen Lan – remember you forever” (Van Hoc Publishing House – 2001) by Mrs. Nguyen Thi Lan – the wife of the poet Yen Lan – has quoted Che Lan Vien’s opinion: “Yen Lan is talented, talented. special and very soon”. It is not because of friendship that Che Lan Vien appreciates Yen Lan so highly. Before 1935, when New Poetry was still a toddler, Yen Lan had unique creations: “Mourning triangle sails about her resting quietly The rhythm of delaying harmonizes to pat the island far away”. Or describe the afternoon sun of Sam Son: “Empty far away The roof is dumbfounded, poetic and touching Afternoon pigeon wings incubated all over the manor.” “Sorrow triangle”, “tempo of delaying harmony”, “poetry of stone carving”, “afternoon of pigeons” – language structures, shimmering images interwoven magically, as if Yen Lan just wrote yesterday or today. Che Lan Vien is from Quang Tri but studied and grew up in Do Ban, Quy Nhon. In 1937, Che Lan Vien published a collection of poems “Dieu Ruan” that shocked the piano. In an article, Yen Lan once mentioned this collection of poems: “In the afternoon, Che Lan Vien and I often go upstairs to the East Thanh gate of Binh Dinh to admire the scenery and discuss poetry. Cham and Cham towers should discuss and write something together. Then Che Lan Vien published the volume “Diem Ruan” and me with the collection “The Well of Chaos” consisting of 28 poems written about the Chiem nuns…”. Han Mac Tu once read this book of poetry and asked Yen Lan why it was not a “well” (abandoned well), but “chaos”? Yen Lan asserts that it is a “well of chaos” (understood in the sense of chaos…). After reading the draft of this poem, Han Mac Tu was inspired to write the song “Moon commits suicide”: “Cold wells! Cold wells Why is no one good I heard that autumn hides here… Chaos, chaos, oh well chaos I’m panicking, I’m panicking Jump into the well to pick up the moon.” The song “Moon commits suicide”, Yen Lan planned to print in his book “The Chaos Well” as a preface, but unfortunately the poetry book was lost and Yen Lan’s poetic face seemed to be defective. In the last years of her life, Yen Lan also squeezed herself to make the quartet genre more attractive and more modern. With more than 400 quartet songs, Yen Lan is evaluated: Among the few great masters of modern Vietnamese quartet poetry, Yen Lan belongs to the “godfather” category (Truc Thong). Looking back at me Also, poet Nguyen Xuan Sanh was born in Da Lat but from a young age he studied at Quy Nhon National School (old), then moved to Hanoi. At the age of 15 (younger than Che Lan Vien when he was 16 years old when he published “Dieu Ruan”), Xuan Sanh released his epic “Lost Species”, with innovative poems of the type now commonly known as “postmodernism”. modern day”, breaking the standards of traditional poetry, with strange and “fragrant” sentences: “The white wind will smell the willow-shaped season / Far away from the pale green sad blue path…”. Now go to Go Boi to enjoy the coolness of the East Sea breeze, to look back into the past. Suddenly looking upstream, remember the castles and citadels of the Cham people, of the heroic Tay Son dynasty; looking down to the sea, remembering the rowboats that were horizontal and vertical for a while; remember the ships of the Portuguese and Spanish docked at Nuoc Man sea, now there is Xuan Phuong church, Lonely Song Village… And looking back at me, my age is already “sixteen years old”… Down there, how much water of the Con River is still flowing through Go Boi Bridge… Tuy Phuoc, February 2021

The world’s most expensive car park is located in a super luxury development in Hong Kong overlooking the city’s harbour. It is the luxury project Mount Nicholson in the affluent ‘The Peak’ area of ​​Hong Kong. The building’s parking lot was once dubbed ‘Asia’s most expensive address’ overlooking Victoria Harbour.

Besides being the tourist attraction of Sierra Leone, the turquoise lagoon with palm trees here is also a seasonal breeding ground for fish and turtles. In May, however, the Sierra Leone government announced plans to build a fishing port and processing complex in the village. The project has raised concerns about its devastating effects on the local landscape, threatening animal species and polluting the environment. AFP . Black Johnson is the proposed site for the construction of an industrial harbor in Sierra Leone. Photo: Handout. Consequences of China’s “investment” Sierra Leone’s Fisheries Ministry said China is funding a $55 million project to build a fishing port to create jobs and support the local fishing industry in the poor country. But, instead of winning praise, Beijing’s actions are causing controversy in the African country. Mr. Tommy Gbandewa, also known as Tito, the owner of the eco-lodge, is leading the opposition to the plan to build on green plots. “If the Chinese come here, the environment will stink. The beaches will stink,” he said. “The water here will be dirty because of engine oil and a lot of noise, fishing boats will be everywhere.” This controversy is at the heart of a longstanding source of tension in Sierra Leone, between development advocates and conservationists on the other. Opposition is heightened as the government is looking to promote ecotourism to boost its economy. Eco-lodge owner Tommy Gbandewa is leading the charge against a Chinese-funded harbor construction plan. Photo: AFP. Sierra Leone is one of the world’s poorest countries and is still recovering from a civil war that claimed the lives of about 120,000 people nearly two decades ago. Although there are rich fishing grounds, the exploitation of fishery resources in this country is still limited. Not only that, according to Sierra Leone’s Ministry of Fisheries, in May, there were about 140 foreign fishing boats catching the country’s fish. These ship owners then processed and sold Sierra Leone’s seafood abroad “with little or no benefit to Sierra Leone”. Even so, despite receiving Beijing’s funding to build a modern fishing pier, the ambiguity in the implementation plan made locals wary. Some believe that the Chinese investors intend to build the fishmeal factory, although the government of Sierra Leone has denied the allegation with AFP . In recent times, a series of fishmeal factories have mushroomed along the West African coast. These factories harvest large quantities of seafood and often release foul-smelling waste, polluting water sources, wreaking havoc on the local environment and hindering tourism development. The fishmeal factory emits toxic waste that is a threat to local communities in Sierra Leone. Photo: Handout. Fishermen’s association spokesman Wudie Bakie Koroma said he would support the harbor construction if taken seriously. “If the fishmeal production (factory) is included in the project, we will firmly oppose it,” he stressed. Against this backdrop, the Chinese diplomat in the capital Freetown Du Zijun announced that the new Chinese-invested project is to build a harbor, not a “fishmeal factory”. “The accusations of not caring about protecting the environment and destroying the ecological environment are purely sensational hypothetical information,” he added. “We have a right to the land” Immediately after the news that the government signed a $ 55 million agreement with Beijing for China to build a project on 100 hectares of exposed sea and forest, locals have repeatedly petitioned to reverse the government’s decision. Mr. Tito said discontent was widespread. Government officials arrived with armed men to survey the construction site. “But I’m Sierra Leone and I have a right to the land,” Mr Tito said. In the wake of the controversy, Fisheries Minister Emma Kowa Jalloh, on a recent visit to the Black Johnson village, promised landowners would be compensated. According to the minister, the Chinese government will provide “subsidy” to build the project, while the government of Sierra Leone invests with land. Half of the required land area is owned by the state, the rest will be taken through the decision to acquire. “We are not occupying land,” she said, noting that the project was “very necessary” to create jobs for thousands of people. The new project is expected to be built in the village of Black Johnson. Photo: AFP. However, Dr Sama Banya, honorary president of the Sierra Leone Conservation Society, said the project would have a “catastrophic” impact on tourism and the fishing industry. Environmental NGO Green Scenery accused the government of failing to properly account for the project’s environmental impact and urged the plan to be scrapped. “Black Johnson is the only ecotourism site left in Freetown, we need to protect it,” said organization director Joseph Rahall. However, not all locals are against the harbor planning. Village chief Pa Lamin Kargbo said the port could help improve places where people still face daily shortages of water, electricity and schools. He explained that much of the friction with the government is due to a lack of dialogue. “We are calling for a peaceful resolution of the problem, so that everyone is a winner,” he said.

Not only acting as a trade gateway, becoming the driving force of the economy, the seaport system in many places has developed marinas with a 5-star infrastructure to welcome luxury tourists. Along with that, the strategy of urban development and construction of marinas suitable for each port area has also become a top concern in coastal countries.

In particular, it is impossible not to mention Monaco, the land that owns the most luxurious and splendid tourist destinations in the world. In particular, Hercules marina is known as “the destination of the elite”. The entire port has only 20 positions for superyachts. Where visitors are willing to pay 1,500 USD to rent 1 night on the yacht or 4,500 USD / night at hotels around Hercules marina. Only winning the lottery can buy real estate by the harbor? In Shanghai, the city with the largest port in the world, some experts liken Shanghai’s house prices continuously increasing over the years, so expensive that “you can’t buy it when you win the lottery”. Real estate in Shanghai has continuously increased for many years. With the advantage of marine economy, Shanghai has the second largest GDP per capita in China, only after Beijing, reaching 137,000 yuan. Originally a remote fishing village, today Shanghai has the busiest port in the world, more than Singapore and Rotterdam. Therefore, Shanghai is considered the “economic capital” of China. Experiencing the history of movement of the modern world, thanks to its great economic benefits, and at the same time possessing beautiful landscapes and views; Living space, healthy resort, harbor areas are identified as “mecca” of expensive and lavish real estate. Typical of which are Monaco, Hong Kong, Miami …, but this list is also expanding as the coastal countries seriously implement the port urban development strategy.
