The fishermen receive gifts from the Bach Long Vy district authorities.

Ten crew-members of the troubled ship then tried to escape from the fire, went adrift, and were rescued by another fishing ship nearby.

The fishermen then were handed over to Bach Long Vy Border Station of the Hai Phong Municipal Border Guard Command, and taken to Bach Long Vy district Medical Center to receive health treatment.

Currently, the health of all 10 crew-members is basically stable.
