The central coastal province of Quang Nam is striving to have no "three no’s" fishing vessels that lack proper registration, fishing licenses, or inspection certifications by the end of November, according to Director of the provincial Fisheries Sub-department Vo Van Long.

VOV.VN - Vietnam and Sweden will better leverage their respective countries’ strengths to further enhance their effective, mutually beneficial cooperation.

The Mekong Delta province of Kien Giang recorded no fishing vessels infringing foreign waters in September and October, attributable to strict law enforcement and settlement of illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing cases.

The Standing Board of the Party Committee of southern Kien Giang province has called for strengthening the Party's leadership in the fight against illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing, part of a broader national effort to have the “yellow card” warning lifted by the European Commission (EC).

Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs Le Thi Thu Hang and Director General for Asia and the Pacific at the European External Action Service (EEAS) Niclas Kvarnström co-chaired the fifth meeting of the Vietnam-EU Joint Committee within the framework of the EU-Vietnam Partnership and Cooperation Agreement (PCA) in Hanoi on October 22.

VOV.VN - The European Union and Vietnam should upgrade their relations soon, laying the foundation for deeper, more substantive, and effective cooperation across all fields in the coming time.

The fight against illegal, unreported, and unregulated (IUU) fishing is extremely important, so the European Union (EU) is supporting Vietnam by their legislation in the field, said EU Ambasasdor to Vietnam Julien Guerrier in a recent interview granted to the Vietnam News Agency.

Under the close supervision of the Government, the Prime Minister, and the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development (MARD), along with the tireless efforts of local authorities, Vietnam's fisheries sector has made significant progress after nearly seven years of striving to get the European Commission (EC)'s “yellow card” warning against Vietnamese seafood products lifted.
