The event also had the attendance of Mr. Do Van Thai-deputy Director of the Department of Natural Resources and Environment, Mr. Nguyen Hoai Trung- Deputy Secretary of the provincial Ho Chi Minh Communist Youth Union branch. According to Mr. Nguyen Hoai Trung, the campaign is a practical activity to gather people, especially youth to join efforts in environmental protection, contributing to changing their habit to use environmentally friendly products instead of single-use plastic items. The campaign has been considered as one of the responding programs to welcome the 14th provincial Party Congress towards the 13th National Party Congress.
On that occasion, Mr. Do Van Thai urged authorities at all levels, agencies, organizations, social and economic organizations, and the whole people to support the campaign “Let’s Clean up the Ocean” and “Green Sunday” program through concrete actions. After the ceremony, hundreds of youth union members actively cleaned up the environment along the Ca Ty river and Doi Duong beach (PhanThiet city). The campaign was also launched in other localities in Binh Thuan on the same day.
