The investment in the project will contribute to ensuring a place to anchor and avoid storms for dozens of vessels, and at the same time, a berth for fishermen to transport seafood as well as provide services at sea. Thereby, it will reduce the volume of boats anchored at the main port of Lach Quen, ensuring the safety of people and vehicles during the rainy and stormy season./.
