As a result, two first prizes, worth VND25 million each, were awarded to a group of authors represented by Le Minh Anh for the ‘Ngu’ work, and author Nguyen Hoang Quan for the ‘Boat and the Sea’ work.
Two second prizes, valued at VND20 million each, went to a group of designers represented by Truong Cong Tam for the ‘Where the land meets the sea’ work, and a group of authors represented by Tran Dinh Nhan for the ‘Pearl Strips’ work.
Ho Nguyen Minh Trung and Nguyen Tran Minh Loc shared the third prizes of VND15 million each with the ‘Sea soul’ and ‘Love’ works respectively.
The ‘Going fishing’ work by a group of authors represented by Nguyen Van Tinh, and the ‘Check-in with the fishing village’ work by Nguyen Viet Tien, took the consolation prizes, worth VND10 million each.
In addition, the contest’s organisers gave VND2 million in bonuses to entrants who did not win any awards.
The winning and non-winning works will be installed at suitable locations in the coming time by the district authorities and relevant agencies, aiming to create impressive tourist attractions in the locality.
