He affirmed that the SVB would actively and responsibly carry out the Decree to support fishermen and enterprises by permitting access to loans to further develop the sea economy and protect national sovereignty. He asked the Bank for Agricultural and Rural Development, Ly Son district branch, to increase its transaction activities, including opening more transaction points on the island to facilitate loan access for fishermen and enterprises, thus boosting the sea economy and tourism development. During the trip, Mr. Binh gave the district VND10 billion which was mobilised from commercial banks to build restrooms for disadvantaged families; and gave presents to fishermen as well as sent regards to the lives of fishermen on the island./.
