Activities to contribute to supporting people affected by Typhoon No. 3 within the framework of the Nghinh Ong Can Gio Festival 2024.

On September 17th, the Organizing Committee of the Can Gio Nghinh Ong Festival announced the successful organization of the 2024 Can Gio Fishermen's Commendation Ceremony and the launch of a fundraising campaign to support flood-affected people in the northern provinces during the festival.

According to Mr. Nguyen Ngoc Xuan, Vice Chairman of the People's Committee of Can Gio District (Ho Chi Minh City), the annual Nghinh Ong Can Gio Festival is one of the largest maritime cultural activities in Ho Chi Minh City, becoming a beautiful cultural feature of the people living along the coast of Can Gio. The festival was recognized as a National Intangible Cultural Heritage in 2013.

According to representatives from the Ho Chi Minh City Department of Agriculture and Rural Development, in 2024, the total output of the fisheries sector is estimated to reach nearly 42,300 tons, an increase of 5.5% compared to the same period and reaching 73.3% of the annual plan. In Can Gio district alone, there are currently 683 fishing vessels operating in nearshore and offshore waters. The catch reached 12,300 tons, generating an average income of 21.5 - 22.5 million VND per vessel per month (an increase of 5%).

Coastal fishing activities provide stable incomes ranging from 6.3 to 7.5 million VND per vessel per month. Aquaculture, high-tech farming, and high-value livestock (shrimp, bird's nests, etc.) have all seen increased production. Many new models have yielded high economic efficiency. Notably, 53 OCOP products have achieved 3-4 star ratings, and 18 seafood products have been evaluated and recognized as 3-4 star OCOP products by the Ho Chi Minh City People's Committee.

On this occasion, the People's Committee of Can Gio District and the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development of Ho Chi Minh City launched a fundraising campaign to support people affected by storms and floods in the northern provinces, with the participation and contributions of local agencies and units, as well as a large number of fishermen, aquaculture farmers, and artists from the city.
