VOV.VN - The EC has recognised Vietnam’s significant progress in combating illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing over the past eight years, while urging the country to address remaining shortcomings to build a sustainable fisheries management system and move toward lifting the “yellow card".

Vietnam’s fishery sector is preparing for the visit by an EC delegation at the end of this month, during which they will inspect the fight against illegal, unreported and undocumented (IUU) fishing in the Southeast Asian nation.
