The South-East Islands are getting a spring makeover thanks to Government funding and the great efforts of soldiers and people.
Soldiers and people in the South-East islands, such as Tho Chu, Hon Khoai, Hon Chuoi, Nam Du, and Hon Doc are joining hands to make the island more prosperous in addition to protecting the sovereignty and sea and island security.
