The Department of Fisheries organizes 24/7 duty at the provincial fishing vessel monitoring center to closely monitor and supervise fishing vessels operating at sea, especially fishing vessels operating in border areas, to promptly warn, prevent and not let fishing vessels cross the border and illegally violate foreign waters.
The Provincial Border Guard Command regularly maintains 6 fishing vessel monitoring points, coordinates with functional forces to monitor, grasp the situation and closely supervise vehicles operating at sea, promptly detect fishing vessels operating in border, overlapping and undemarcated areas.
So far, no fishing boats of the province have been found violating foreign waters.
Vice Chairman of Binh Thuan Provincial People's Committee Nguyen Hong Hai requested sectors and localities to continue to focus on managing, monitoring, and closely supervising fishing vessels and high-risk fishermen, and resolutely not allowing fishermen to violate foreign waters.
In order to control and manage fishing vessels, Vice Chairman of Binh Thuan Provincial People's Committee requested units and functional agencies to continue promoting the registration for the "3 no" fishing boat in accordance with the drastic, responsible and methodical spirit;
The Vice Chairman of the People's Committee of Binh Thuan province emphasized that it is impossible to let a situation where just a few individuals are slow and uncooperative, affecting the efforts to remove the "yellow card" and seriously affecting the marine economy of the whole province.
Therefore, after December 31, 2024, if the registration of the "3 no" fishing vessels has not been completed due to the fishing vessel owners' non-cooperation or procrastination, localities and functional agencies must resolutely punish and deter these cases.
