03:10How can we have flowers to serve the people of Vung Tau?
03:14Without the peach trees, there will be other flowers.
03:16If there is no tree, there will be another one.
03:18We are researching.
03:20If there are not enough houses,
03:22we can try to make fewer.
03:24Maybe next time,
03:26if the phenomenon happens,
