HCM City fines boat captain amid anti-illegal, unreported, and unregulated fishing push

The HCM City Sub-Department of Fisheries and Fisheries Surveillance has fined a fishing boat captain VNĐ35 million (US$1,330) and revoked his licence for nine months after his boat lost its vessel monitoring system connection, which are part of the city’s intensified efforts to combat illegal fishing and enforce maritime laws.
