“Heart of the Sea and Islands” is an annual program organized by the Vietnam Journalists Association , to honor those who have devoted their lives to the cause of protecting the sea and islands, and to encourage the spirit of the beloved children of the Fatherland who are steadfastly performing their duties in the sea and island areas. These are the Navy, Coast Guard, Fisheries Surveillance, Border Guard, along with fishermen, those who have made a fortune from the sea and are “living milestones” of the sovereignty of the sea and islands in the East Sea.
The program is accompanied by the following units: Phu My Fertilizer Brand - Phu My NPK, Vietnam National Petroleum Group ( Petrolimex ), Petrolimex Insurance Joint Stock Corporation (Pjico).
At the program, the love story of a navy soldier was shared emotionally in the program's report. He is Lieutenant Colonel QNCN Pham Van Huong, currently working at DK1/16 Platform, DK1 Battalion, Naval Region 2 Command.
Nearly 30 years apart, countless letters were sent to the ships connecting the mainland and the remote island, connecting the small house, where there was a wife and young children, with the husband in the middle of the stormy ocean. That soldier could only return home once a year, sometimes every two years.
The letters contained extremely sweet and precious words that he dedicated to his hard-working wife: “Hien, my dear and missed you so much, now I am sitting sadly and thinking about you, the wife I love so much. You know, sometimes when I receive your letters I am very happy and read them over and over again to remember the handwriting of my beloved wife who because of my duty I have to be away from but my heart is always with you because you are everything to me”.
With their duties, they often have to stay at the forefront of the storm, soldiers like Lieutenant Colonel Huong can only return home for one to two weeks a year. Being reunited with their homeland is a luxury. But their hearts are always filled with pride when working and performing duties at the stormy border, contributing to protecting the sacred sovereignty of the Fatherland. For them, the sea is home, the sea is homeland. A solid rear is a great source of spiritual encouragement for them: "Only a boat knows how vast the sea is."
The program also brought the audience a musical space with many emotional ranges through special performances, elaborately staged; in which part 1 was called "Sea Epic Song"; part 2 had the theme "Sea Love", part 3 had the theme "Aspiration and Faith"; with the participation of many famous artists: People's Artist Ta Minh Tam, People's Artist Quoc Hung, singers Quang Ha, Tan Nhan...
