Ms. Tran Thi Kieu Yen, President of the Women's Union of Ca Mau province, said that in recent times, the Women's Union of the province has closely coordinated with the Naval Region 5 Command to effectively carry out propaganda work on seas and islands; mobilizing members to actively participate in protecting the sacred sovereignty of the seas and islands of the Fatherland.

Activities are widely organized in the province with many diverse and creative forms, both raising awareness and arousing the sense of responsibility among cadres, women's union members and people. Programs towards the sea and islands have become a bright spot in mass mobilization work in the locality.

In addition to propaganda work, the Women's Union of Ca Mau province also coordinated with the Naval Region 5 Command, units, businesses and benefactors to organize many social security activities such as visiting and giving gifts to officers and soldiers in difficult circumstances, supporting poor households, policy families and people with meritorious services in the area.

According to Ms. Tran Thi Kieu Yen, these practical actions have contributed to strengthening the military-civilian relationship, consolidating the "people's hearts and minds" position, and at the same time spreading the spirit of solidarity, loyalty, and responsibility in the cause of protecting the sovereignty of the Fatherland's seas and islands.

Colonel Ngo Van Thanh, Political Commissar of Naval Region 5, emphasized that over the years, Naval Region 5 has always received attention and active support from the Party Committee, government and people of Ca Mau province in general, and the Provincial Women's Union in particular. This is a great source of encouragement, adding strength to help officers and soldiers of the unit feel secure in staying at sea and on islands, and successfully completing assigned tasks.

The Political Commissar of Naval Region 5 hopes that in the coming time, the Women's Union of Ca Mau province will continue to strengthen coordination with the unit in communication and propaganda work on the sea and islands; promote the mobilization of female members to participate in movements to build and protect the sovereignty of the sea and islands in an increasingly practical, effective and widespread manner in the community. In addition, organize more meaningful programs for the homeland's sea and islands, promote the combined strength of the entire people in the cause of firmly protecting the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the country in the new situation.
