Chinese shrimp buyers scooping up Vietnam supply

The Vietnam Association of Seafood Exporters and Producers (VASEP) has sent two urgent dispatches to competent agencies, reporting that Chinese merchants have come to Vietnam to collect shrimps in large quantities, about 100 tons per day from every province/city.

Some other sources have reported that some 300 tons of shrimp go across the border gates to China every day.
