Farmers partake in plowing competition in central Vietnam

The event took place at a paddy field in An Thanh Village, Duy Trung Commune, Duy Xuyen District.

Combined with contributions from local residents and businesses, the total sum was used as cash prizes for the winners.

Vietnam’s Stunning Giant Sand Dunes

Hình ảnh
Situated roughly 20 km north east of Phan Thiet city, sand dunes in Mui Ne are recognised as the most beautiful throughout the country. These sand dunes are notable for their colours changing depending on the position of the sun or cloud cover, with these sites being ideal for kite-surfing and jeep tours. Located about 65 km to the northeast of Phan Thiet, the Bau Trang sand dune (also known as Bau Sen) is regarded as one of the most stunning desert terrains nationwide. Controlling the quadbike might be more challenging than a regular motorbike, but sitting on one is an unforgettable experience for any tourist visiting the Bau Trang sand dune.

“Initially, I could not find the right yeast for brewing, so the yeast failed to grow, leading to the discharge of 3,000 liters of decaying oil,” said Tran Quoc Trong, a teacher of Tran Phu Middle School in Ward 7, Tan An City under Long An Province, southern Vietnam. “Due to the failure, my family advised me to give up. At that time, I realized that mastering theory was not easy in practice. “To produce a practical product from theory, oftentimes we have to learn from the beginning. “As such, I thought that each product could only be successful at one stage, so I never stopped.” One Thursday at the beginning of this year, Trong had another teacher substitute for some physics and chemistry classes so that he could stay at home and prepare for the acceptance of a pilot project to turn out high quality dragon fruit seed oil under a contract signed by a company founded by Trong and the Long An Department of Science and Technology.
