Catching the needs of the people, an apartment in Nam Tu Liem (Hanoi) has “built a slide” made of aluminum to serve the residents to see off the carp.
The “slide” made of aluminum, about 5m long, is placed on the grass with one end on the edge of the fence, one end running straight into the artificial lake. The outside of the slide is designed in a funnel shape for easy fish release.
Mr. Tran Minh Tuyen, Deputy Manager of Apartment Management Board said: “1 week ago, we installed it, to give notice to the residents. Last year we made a plastic pipe” slide “but this year we did it. in more modern aluminum.
People can let their children go to fish with them, in addition to bringing Mr. Apple back to heaven, this is also an opportunity for adults to teach children the sense of environmental protection and remember the traditional cultural features of the people. clan. Residents are very supportive and excited, so from the following years we still apply this method of stocking “.
Mr. Nguyen Duc Tuan, a resident of the apartment complex, said: “This idea of the apartment management board is very good, avoiding the situation of carp injured, or exhausted when being dropped from above. it is possible for the children to accompany them to release the fish without worrying about falling into a river or lake.
Recorded in the afternoon of December 22 (ie February 3 of solar calendar), some people living in the apartment “invited each other” to release carp early.
Often worship Mr. Cong and Mr. Apple early, so Nguyen Thi Ngoc (the resident living in the apartment) bought red carp from the previous night, she dropped the fish into a box of clean water. After worshiping, she and her daughter brought the fish box to the lake for release.
