Along with maintaining control at the port, coastal localities have also implemented many solutions to handle the situation of destructive exploitation at sea and in lagoon areas. In De Gi commune, recently there has been a situation where some boats use electric pulses and machines to exploit seafood, causing serious damage to resources and the ecological environment. Faced with that situation, the local government has stepped in decisively. Since September, the commune has established an inter-sectoral working group to combat IUU fishing, coordinating with the border force and the fisheries industry to organize regular patrols, inviting ship owners at risk of violation to work, and requesting a commitment not to use banned fishing gear. Nearly 50 ships that committed violations had their electrical impulse equipment and machinery destroyed; More than 500 fishing vessels were inspected and guided to complete registration according to regulations.
