At the visit, the working delegation encouraged and shared difficulties with Mr. Tu's family when the fishing boat was burned down, with estimated damage of about 5 billion VND. The incident put the family in difficult circumstances, greatly affecting livelihoods.

In order to help the family soon stabilize their lives and restore production, the delegation transferred 15 million VND from the Relief Fund of the Vietnam Fatherland Front (VFF) of Lam Dong province.
