The VMS quality should be strictly inspected before providing it to fishermen to avoid problems, it said. In mid-April, due to a satellite error, many fishing boats of Quang Tri that installed the VMS of Vietnam Telecom Services Company (Vinaphone) suffered loss of connection, affecting fishermen’s operation. To deal with the problem, the department required units and localities to notify and guide owners and captains of such boats to implement temporary solutions. It is necessary to issue a technical guidance for handling fishing vessels that do not maintain connection to VMS devices and those that infringe foreign waters, it said. The department also suggested allowing the head of local fisheries management agency to impose administrative sanctions against violating fishing vessels in accordance with the 2017 Fisheries Law and its guiding documents.

HÀ NỘI — An overall inspection of illegal inland waterway ports is planned for next month until the end of this year, said the Việt Nam Inland Waterways Administration (VIWA). The general inspection of ports and inland waterway wharves on national and local waterways aims to assess the current status of the ports and waterway anchorage systems, especially the ones without licences, which might be unsafe. The number of unlicensed ports and wharves is still increasing because localities have adjusted their inland waterway planning, so many wharves can no longer have their licences renewed. In addition, lots of localities have not established and approved waterway traffic development plans, or the plans are not consistent with reality, causing difficulties for businesses and individuals wishing to open waterway ports. In the new decree, provincial People's Committees will supervise and close ports, wharves and anchorage areas that are not legally allowed to operate.
