Actively search for missing fisherman in Cu Lao Cham
PANO - Colonel Tran Van Ba, Head of Cu Lao Cham Border Guard station of Quang Nam’s provincial Border Guard Command said in the afternoon of November 26 that the border guards are still actively searching for a fisherman who has been reported missing off the coast of Cu Lao Cham.
According to initial information, at 1:00 on November 26, a QNa 92482 TS fishing boat captained by Le Muoi (residing in Cam Thanh commune, Hoi An city, Quang Nam province) was travelling towards Cu Lao Cham island with nine crew members aboard when fisherman Nguyen Van Dung (of Duy Nghia commune, Duy Xuyen district) was discovered missing.
Having been informed of the incident, Cu Lao Cham Border Guard Station requested Quang Nam’s provincial Border Guard Command to deploy a rescue boat to help search for the missing fisherman.
The locality has also mobilized 30 fishing boats to help with the search. However, the search is facing many difficulties due to rough seas and strong winds.
