Hoạt động cứu trợ đồng bào tại Ninh Thuận (Relief Activities for Our Compatriots in Ninh Thuan)
A landscape sheet of five captioned photographs shows a march against Communist sabotage, a pump drawing water for dry fields, sacks of grain handed out, a hospital opening and highland villagers receiving rice and cloth. A closing panel says the government always takes care to help compatriots suffering because of the Communists. Aid scenes and a single attribution of suffering to the opponent are set side by side, and only the aid and the march are shown.
