| Description |
English: Vietnamese propaganda poster near the pilgrimage site Christ the King in Vung Tau; featuring oil platforms, a sailor with a gun and the front of a red ship (picture taken on 7 November 2017, 16;54PM).
Text in the sky, above the two oil platforms presumably reads (can not verify accents at this resolution): Tất cả vì biển đảo quê hương, Just out of sight here (left side of the picture, on the hill) is the statue of the Christ of Vung Tau. The coast is situated on the right side of the picture. The red ship features a white shape (the shape of Vietnam) with some yellow stars on it, as well as some yellow text on the left side of the shape. Further more, at the right side of the white shape of Vietnam, there seem to have been two white pieces of text, presumably indicating the geographical location of the two oil platforms (one located along the height of the center of Vietnam, the other one at the height of the far south of the country). Help in analyzing the posterFor a question as to which oil platforms might be represented in this picture, and why, see my 28 November 2017 thread on the Politics division of the question-and-answer website 'StackeExchange' (with a detail picture of the left side of the poster and archived through the Internet Archives's Wayback Machine). That same 28 November, a user called 'James K' suggested, as an answer that the oil platforms might be referring to the Bạch Hổ oil field. The user suggested that the white text next to the white shape of Vietnam might be referring to the Paracel Islands (in Vietnamese: Quần đảo Hoàng Sa) (for the line of text at the height of the center of Vietnam) and the Spratly Islands (in Vietnamese: Quần đảo Trường Sa) (the line of text at the height of the south of Vietnam). It has been claimed that the Spratly Islands are important for economic and strategic reasons and that they may hold oil and gas reserves. The Spratly Islands, along with the Paracel Islands have been claimed by many regional countries to be their own territories. |
