Ms. Nguyen Thi An - Cua Nam ward, Vinh city said: The situation of people catching carp that have just been released appears almost every year.
Many people are frustrated and sad because according to the belief, the Kitchen God rides a carp to heaven to report to the Jade Emperor what he has done and what he has not done in the past year, but now the carp has just been released and it has been caught.
