VN to join Agreement on Port State Measures
VGP – The Government has agreed on Viet Nam’s joining the UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO)’s Agreement on Port State Measures (PSMA) which aims to prevent, deter and eliminate illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing.
The PSMA was approved by the FAO member countries in 2009 and took effect on June 5, 2016.
