adminComments Off on Coastal erosion concerns fishing villages in central province


Significant coastal erosion has been recently recorded in Hoang Hoa district, the central province of Thanh Hoa, concerning thousands of fishermen’s households in the fishing villages of Hoang Thanh, Hoang Phu and Hoang Truong.
