The Command prepared 190 gifts for the children. In the cheerful and festive atmosphere of the Full Moon Night celebration, the children enjoyed musical performances, vibrant lion dances, and, most especially, heartfelt Mid-Autumn greetings from the soldiers who are steadfastly guarding the sacred sovereignty of the nation’s seas, islands, and continental shelf. These sincere messages from the soldiers stationed offshore, who are also fathers, brothers, and uncles, conveyed their love and affection to the children celebrating the festival back home.

The Full Moon Festival night, themed “Fathers on the Platform - Children at Home with Friends”, demonstrated the special care and attention of the leadership of Naval Region 2 Command for the children of officers and soldiers throughout the Region, as well as for the children of fishermen under the unit’s sponsorship - the young generation and future of the nation.

The Mid-Autumn Festival also provided a meaningful playground for children and adolescents, helping to educate, train, and nurture their character while fostering family affection and a sense of community responsibility toward their homeland and country.
