VTV.vn - As reported late 2015 in Long Sơn Commune, Bà Rịa-Vũng Tàu Province, mass fish deaths in the Chà Và River caused by untreated industrial waste led to damages worth 900 thousand US dollars to local fish farmers.

After nearly a year of complaints and negotiations, a firm named Mỹ Sương seafood company has begun to compensate fish farmers. The company compensated 33 fishing households with nearly 1000 US dollars, the lowest compensation among the 14 firms that were sued. Following this, fish farmers withdrew their lawsuit of Mỹ Sương seafood company. Fish farmers are still working with the other businesses to recieve proper compensation.
