PHÚ YÊN — By rolling out effective communications work on combating illegal,  unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing and support for local fishermen against unforeseen problems at sea, the south central province of Phú Yên has recorded no violations of IUU fishing regulations in the past five years.

Established in 2012, the fisheries society of ward No.6, Tuy Hòa city, with 175 members with 121 offshore fishing vessels, has joined hands with local authority and competent sides to carry out hundreds of communications campaigns, helping raise awareness of local fishermen of the consequences of the illegal practice.

According to chairman of the fisheries society Phan Thuận, the society handed out more than 1,250 leaflets, and mobilised local fishermen to strictly comply with regulations on IUU fishing and fishing tools.

Besides, the “safe production group” model has been carried out by the local border guards, with the engagement of 926 fishing vessels and nearly 8,000 workers across the provine. The model has encouraged fishing vessels’ safe and legal operation while helping protect national sovereignty over sea and islands.

Đông Hòa township, with a coastline of 36 kilometres, has paid due attention to the communications work to help local people get a deeper insight into the Party and State sea and island regulations through organising conferences and cultural and art programmes, among others.

Colonel Nguyễn Ngọc Minh, political commissar of the province border guard force, said that the local armed forces have joined hands with sectors, townships and districts to improve the quality of the communications work, mobilising all people to join efforts to safeguard the sea and island sovereignty and ensure order and security in the sea border areas. — VNS
