Quang Ngai held requiem for martyrs and sailors
By Tuan Minh 14:57, 2014/05/25
A requiem for martyrs and sailors who defended the Hoang Sa (Paracel) archipelago was held in Ly Son island, central Quang Ngai province on May 23-25.


It is an event for Buddhist dignitaries and followers and locals to pay tribute to Hoang Sa soldiers and convey a message affirming Vietnam’s sovereignty over the Hoang Sa and Truong Sa (Spartly) archipelagos. 

It is dedicated to those who laid down their lives for national independence and freedom as well as sailors of the Hoang Sa flotilla who erected sovereignty markers and safeguarded national sovereignty, said Most Venerable Thich Tam Duc, head of the organising board.
