HO CHI MINH CITY (ANN): Vietnam's fisheries exports are unlikely to meet the US$10bil target set by the Government for this year because of the multiple challenges like the US-China trade war, lack of demand and increasing competition.
In the first 10 months of the year, exports were worth only US$7.09bil, down 2% from the same period last year, as the prices of major export items like catfish and shrimp fell, Trương Đình Hòe, secretary general of the Việtnam Association of Seafood Exporters and Producers (Vasep), told a recent conference in Cần Thơ City.
