The State Committee for Overseas Vietnamese under the Ministry of Foreign Affairs cooperates with the People's Navy to organize an overseas Vietnamese delegation to visit the military and people on the Spratly Islands.

Before the trip, the Vietnamese Ambassador to the Netherlands Pham Viet Anh met the delegation. During the meeting, he said the trip aimed to bring overseas Vietnamese to Truong Sa to see with their own eyes the daily life of the people and soldiers who guard the country's islands.

He emphasized that the delegates would bring with them a noble mission: showing the expat comminity's affection for the people and soldiers on remote islands and bringing back their message to the overseas community.

He wished the delegates good health and a safe trip. He hoped the trip would offer opportunities to communicate with people in Truong Sa and have a good time exploring the island so that when they get home, they can tell their experience to the Vietnamese community in the Netherlands and proceed to establish a Truong Sa Club in the Netherlands.

The Vietnam Sea and Island Lovers Club in France was established on March 19, 2023.
