Over the years, the communal house has deteriorated, leaving only ruins. In order to have a place of worship, to show respect and gratitude for the contributions of their ancestors who protected the village, the local government and the people of Ha Trang Village have called for resources from philanthropists, the children of Dong Hai, to join hands to build and renovate the landscape and space of the communal house to serve as a place of worship, to express respect and practice beliefs for the local people. This is also the first year that Dong Hai Commune has organized the Ha Trang Communal House Festival after being restored and embellished.
