Detection and handling of fishing vessel following tourist boats on Ha Long Bay

At 10:20 AM, in the area of Trong Mai islet on Ha Long Bay, during a patrol and inspection on Ha Long Bay, the Interdisciplinary Task Force (comprising Ha Long Bay Management Department, the Waterway Police Team, Traffic Police Department, and Ha Long City Police in Quang Ninh Province) discovered a fishing vessel with a 40HP engine, operated by Mr. Pham Vang Hung, residing in Ha Long City. The fishing vessel was observed following a tourist transport vessel that was carrying passengers on a sightseeing journey.

During the inspection, Mr. Pham Van Hung presented the fishing vessel registration certificate with the license plate QN-42002, registered under his name, as well as the fishing license No. 161/2024/QN-GPKTTS and his citizen identification card bearing the name Pham Van Hung. The task force recorded the incident and brought the vessel ashore for handling according to current regulations.

The firm handling of vessels following tourist boats carrying passengers on Ha Long Bay not only ensures security, order, and safety on the Bay but also helps enhance the image of Ha Long Bay tourism, making it more attractive to both domestic and international visitors/.
