At Hon Ro fishing port, a vessel owned by Nguyen Thi Thanh’s family from Bac Nha Trang Ward docked with a full catch.
"This first voyage of the year is expected to generate about 10,000 USD, enabling us to purchase additional supplies for the vessel. We operate mainly in the Truong Sa area and remain within our traditional fishing grounds using positioning equipment," said Thanh.
