Quang Ngai to build Hoang Sa memorial site on Ly Son island
The construction of Hoang Sa memorial site aims to remember the soldiers, who sacrificed their lives in the archipelago for the national independence and freedom.
As part of construction efforts, the Vietnam General Confederation of Labour and the Quang Ngai People’s Committee held a recent joint conference to collect expert opinions on the architecture, design and location for the site.
A 1.5-2 hectare Hoang Sa monument site will be built on Ly Son island in the central province of Quang Ngai.
The monument is scheduled to be built uphill from the Hang pagoda with all cost covered through community resources.
The site is intended to become a public park, contributing to raising local community awareness of Vietnam ’s sovereignty over the Hoang Sa (Paracel) archipelago.
