Facing less favourable weather in the days after Tet holiday, with their usual hard-working unyielding spirit, local farmers put their springtime activities on hold to go to the fields and take care of their rice. Their usual jobs are to transplant, fertilize, weed, and pump water for the irrigation system.

It is not difficult to explain that the prosperous job a few years ago is now dying. Some wood-shell ship builders have changed the job, and a few are still holding out as if to hold onto the thriving moments.
