    Net mending people say that this is an easy job to learn and do, but it requires a keen eye and meticulousness in each stitch. The main thing is for those who know how to guide those who don’t know, and practice makes perfect.

    Mr. Bui Phu Hai at Tran De Fishing Port (Tran De District, Soc Trang Province) said: His team of hired net mending workers has about 60 people. Whenever the ship owners need them, they contact him and he arranges workers to participate. On average, each person earns from 200,000 - 450,000 VND/day, including lunch. The work is year-round, so the income is very stable. Each person earns from 6 - 10 million VND/month.

    Net mending is not only for women, but also for men and young people. "Tran De fishermen go to sea all year round, so the people here also benefit from it. After each fishing trip, if the ship owner's net is torn, they hire me to mend it. Every day I have work to do, and an income to cover my living expenses," said a net weaver and mender at Tran De fishing port.

    In recent years, the net weaving and mending profession is no longer small and scattered but is concentrated in groups, and the demand for labor from ship owners is increasing, contributing to creating jobs for many freelance workers in the area, helping to increase income, stabilize life, and contribute to the goal of poverty reduction in the locality.
