VTV.vn - ​The directorate of fisheries organized a conference on Friday morning to review natural disaster prevention efforts in 2016 and plan a roadmap for 2017.

2016 was the first year that the aquaculture sector severely affected by natural extremities. Meanwhile, the fisheries infrastructure and disaster warning system are still under-developed, leading to huge losses for farmers when they face natural disaster impacts. The Central Hydrometeorology Forecasting Center predicted that the upcoming storms this year will be even more complex. Despite such danger, many fishing vessels with Movimar satellite equipment still turn them off, making it harder for authorities to monitor their routes.
