Meanwhile, Storm Jangmi that is active off the Philippines and the tropical depression in the Bien Dong Sea (internationally called South China Sea) are forecast to bring rains to Vietnam’s southern region in the coming days.

The circulation area will worsen weather conditions in the areas off Hoang Sa (Paracel) and Truong Sa (Spratly) archipelagoes. Therefore, fishermen should keep a close watch on the situation in order to seek shelters./.
