Exchange program "Common Homeland" between Vinh Linh - Tan Ky

(Baonghean.vn) -At 8:00 p.m. on September 26, 2012, at the Tan Ky District Cultural House (Nghe An), a live television program with the theme "Common Homeland" took place between Vinh Linh District (Quang Tri Province) and Tan Ky District (Nghe An Province).

45 years ago, due to the fierce war, the people of Vinh Linh district (Quang Tri province) were given a policy by the central government to relocate to the North. Thousands of families were evacuated to the Northern provinces, including Tan Ky district (Nghe An).

It was also during those difficult days that the comradely bond between Vinh Linh and Tan Ky was strengthened. The people of Vinh Linh grew up and matured, being cared for, nurtured and protected by the people. Peace was restored, the people of the past, although each went their separate ways, some returned to their hometowns, some went to live in other hometowns... but all the beautiful memories of that day were still intact.

The exchange was broadcast live on television stations of the provinces: Nghe An, Quang Tri, Quang Binh, Ha Tinh, Nam Dinh, Thai Binh..., which are the localities where Vinh Linh people evacuated during the war years. The program received much attention from the departments of the two provinces and many other agencies. The exchange ended in joy and emotion, leaving in the hearts of the people of Tan Ky, Vinh Linh in general and the people of Nghe An - Quang Tri in particular warm and loving feelings.
