Abstract

This article discusses Vietnam’s efforts to combat illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing and future possibilities, including an analysis of the various drivers and causes of IUU fishing in the country. While Vietnam’s efforts and determination in the fight against IUU fishing have been promoted since 2017 when the European Commission imposed a ‘yellow card’ on Vietnam’s fishing industry, the outcome has not been as expected. Among the measures proposed to improve the effectiveness of combating IUU fishing in Vietnam, the focus has been on strengthening the national legal framework. These measures include (i) drafting a law on fishing at sea; (ii) developing a code of responsible fisheries; (iii) amending the penal code to criminalise acts of IUU fishing; and (iv) increasing sanctions for IUU fishing violations. In addition, strengthening law enforcement is discussed as a necessary tool to effectively address IUU fishing in Vietnam.

从越南的角度打击非法、未报告和无管制的捕捞活动

本文讨论了越南打击非法、未报告和无管制（IUU）捕鱼的努力以及未来的可能性，包括分析该国非法、无管制和无管制捕鱼的各种驱动因素和原因。尽管自2017年欧盟委员会对越南渔业开出“黄牌”以来，越南在打击非法、无管制和无管制捕鱼方面的努力和决心得到了推动，但结果并不像预期的那样。在为提高越南打击非法、无管制和无管制捕鱼活动的有效性而提出的措施中，重点是加强国家法律框架。这些措施包括：一起草一项关于海上捕鱼的法律；二制定负责任渔业守则；三修订刑法，将非法、无管制和未报告的捕捞行为定为犯罪；四加大对非法、无管制和无管制捕鱼行为的制裁力度。此外，还讨论了加强执法是有效解决越南非法、无管制和未报告捕鱼问题的必要工具。
