Quang Tri - Taking advantage of the policy of supporting fuel for fishing vessels in remote waters, fishermen have transported additional devices to monitor the journey of other vessels for profit.

A fishing boat launched carrying 2 journey monitoring devices

Mr. Phan Van Quang (born in 1967, residing in Quarter 2, Cua Viet Town, Gio Linh District, Quang Tri Province) has 2 fishing boats with registration numbers QT-98202TS and QT-92189TS, and both of them are fishing in the far sea.

On 11.5, the patrol fleet of the Border Guard Command of Quang Tri Province and Con Co Border Guard performed the task of patrolling and supervising fishing activities in Con Co Island area (Quang Tri province) conducted inspection of QT-98202TS fishing vessels when this ship was on the journey to Con Co Island is anchored.

Next, Con Co Border Guard Station clarified the matter, Mr. Phan Van Quang arbitrarily removed the journey monitoring device on fishing boat QT-98202TS to bring to fishing boat QT-92189TS on May 10, 2025. Mr. Quang then drove the QT-92189TS ship to the offshore waters to get points in order to receive state oil support money.

Only one fishing boat goes to a far away sea to fish, but by carrying 2 journey monitoring devices, when it returns, it will do the procedures to receive state oil support money for both boats - the leader of Con Co Border Guard Station informed.

Administrative fine, stripping of captain title

The Department of Agriculture and Environment of Quang Tri province said that according to the provisions of Decree No. 37/2024/ND-CP, the captain or ship owner must ensure that the fishing vessel journey monitoring equipment operates continuously 24/24 hours from the fishing boat to leave the port until the port. And Decree No. 37/2024/ND-CP stipulates that when installing, removing and replacing cruise monitoring equipment on fishing vessels, the ship owner must report to the state management agency on local fisheries.

With the above case, Mr. Phan Van Quang arbitrarily removed the journey monitoring equipment of the QT-98202TS fishing vessel sent via the QT-92189TS fishing vessel to continue grading for enough time in the coast to profit the State's support money; And Mr. Phan Van Quang kept the journey monitoring equipment of the QT-98202-TS fishing vessel. Therefore, it has violated the act of "storing or preserving each other fishing vessel's journey monitoring equipment when the fishing vessel operates at sea" and "sends the journey monitoring device of the fishing vessel when the fishing vessel operates at sea".
