The joy of the people in Tam Son fishing village is clearly shown on each face. Ms. Le Thi Duyen (born in 1979), a disabled person raising a small child, said: My children and I are extremely excited because we have escaped the difficult life of living on a boat, especially on days of heavy rain, wind and storms. Living here, the children will have an advantage in studying. Photo: Huy Thu |

The difficulty in the resettlement area is that there is no electricity source for daily life, although the rows of electric poles have been planted neatly. Therefore, the households who came to live early have to ask for electricity connection from the old village. Currently, some houses of the project are not yet completed to be handed over to the people. Photo: Huy Thu |

Making a living on the water, now moving to land, households still face many difficulties in daily life. Mrs. Pham Thi De (62 years old) shared: "We also hope to stabilize our housing and land to renovate vegetable gardens, raise more chickens and ducks... to improve our lives, because right now we have to buy everything."

From a wild, towering acacia hill, it has been leveled, renovated, and built into a resettlement cluster. The dream of "coming ashore" of the people of Tam Son fishing village after decades of living on the river has come true. Mr. Le Quang Hoa (66 years old), the oldest person in the fishing village, shared: Coming here, we are not only happy because the new place is flat and convenient to travel, but also because we can still live together in solidarity and togetherness. Every family and every person will encourage each other, overcome difficulties, and actively build a new life. Photo: Huy Thu |
