On September 11 and 12, reporters conducted a field survey along the Nha Trang coast. According to our observations, at more than 5 p.m., on the coast from Tran Phu to Pham Van Dong streets, there were still hundreds of umbrellas and chairs placed on the sand.

In front of Phu Dong Park, Loc Tho Ward, there are about 30 umbrellas and chairs placed in a long row, about 10 meters from the beach.

Not far away, the beach near April 2 Square and in front of Sailing Club also has dozens of umbrellas and chairs surrounding the beach. In front of Hon Chong beach, Pham Van Dong street, Vinh Phuoc ward, there are also many umbrellas and chairs densely packed. The umbrellas and chairs are placed until evening before being cleaned up.

According to regulations, businesses are only allowed to provide umbrella and chair rental services on Nha Trang beach from 8am to 4pm every day. However, many businesses still do not comply and continue to place umbrellas and chairs outside of the prescribed time frame. This makes many people think that Nha Trang City's regulations are just a formality.

Speaking with Thanh Nien reporter, a leader of Nha Trang city said that the purpose of limiting the placement of umbrellas and chairs on Nha Trang beach according to the time frame is to create an open space, reserving the entire beach to serve the whole community, for people and domestic and foreign tourists coming to Nha Trang.

After this time, umbrellas and chairs must be removed to make space and the beach available to locals and tourists. In addition, after 4 p.m., Nha Trang Urban Environment Joint Stock Company will clean and sanitize the beach at night to protect the landscape and environment to continue serving the community.

In response to the fact that many units and businesses continue to place umbrellas and chairs outside of the prescribed time frame, this leader said that at the present time, when it is late at night, businesses can be "lenient" and allowed to place umbrellas and chairs for a while longer. However, the city will also direct to inspect and rectify this activity.

Some photos recorded by reporters show umbrellas and chairs being placed on Nha Trang beach outside of permitted hours (after 4:00 p.m.).
