Over generations, for each Vietnamese citizen, the sea and island have always been an inseparable part of the motherland.

Over a thousand-year history, the country has witnessed the sacrifice of many generations. Undoubtedly, maritime sovereignty is also a territorial dispute that should be engraved in each Vietnamese citizen's heart. 

To promote the strength and spirit of national unity, continue to show responsibility towards the sea and homeland islands and gain more resources to carry out specific tasks and projects, support for soldiers and officers who are on their duty, as well as the people living in, border and island areas, among others, the Vietnam Fatherland Front in Ho Chi Minh City, has just launched an appeal for the "For the national sea and islands – For the fatherland frontline" fund.

According to this appeal, the Vietnam Fatherland Front in Ho Chi Minh City called on organisations, individuals, enterprises, and Vietnamese expats to support the fund. It aims to support soldiers and inhabitants in Truong Sa island, maintain and repair the base of the DK1/10 platform and islands in the southwest of the country; build a multi-purpose cultural house on Thuyen Chai B island; arrange visits and gifts to training units for newly enlisted soldiers in 2022; organize the Bien Cuong Friendship Program, and carry out a project on freshwater supplies in border areas.

Responding to this appeal, The Marq -  a luxury apartment project in the centre of District 1 developed by Hongkong Land and NDC An Khang - has donated VND 100 million to the Vietnam Fatherland Front of District 1 as a way to show their affection and responsibility towards the sea and islands of the homeland.

Jointly developed by Hongkong Land and An Khang, The Marq is a luxury residential high-rise building located in the heart of District 1, HCMC. This development will provide 515 opulent residences comprising one to four-bedroom condominiums offering stunning city views and a true luxury lifestyle for discerning investors. 

The Marq is appreciated for its unique architectural features and sophisticated interior design. The architectural style of The Marq is unique, with double-glazed glass for the entire facade and balcony that does not overshadow the peaceful look of a true oasis in the heart of the city, with premium amenities at The Sky Club on the rooftop, such as a 30-meter swimming pool, outdoor banquet Sky Bar and Sky Dining, jacuzzi and gym.

Meanwhile, its modern interior design with private elevators, luxurious marble and 3.2 and even 6.9m high ceilings in some selected 4-bedroom apartments help create a perfect feature for The Marq.

Thanks to these advantages, at the International Property Awards, The Marq overcame strong domestic and regional competitors to conquer the jury in all three prestigious 5-star categories - Residential High-Rise, Residential High-Rise Architecture, and Residential Apartment/Condominium.

The project has now been completed and handed over earlier than expected to the first residents, in December 2021.
