As of September 13, tourist sites of Ha Long Bay resumed operation, with nearly 50 cruises transporting 1,000 visitors. As of September 15, more than 6,000 visitors came to the bay.
To restore environmental sanitation to the heritage site to serve tourism, the Ha Long Bay Management Board on September 15 launched a three-day cleanup campaign, involving 35 to 50 vehicles and about 150 to 200 personnel from various organizations.
The typhoon left a significant amount of debris, including broken aquaculture rafts and household waste, requiring a lot of time for cleanup.
In the immediate future, the cleanup teams focus on collecting garbage in the core area of Ha Long Bay, such as tourist itineraries, overnight stays, on the sea surface, around the islands, and on sandy beaches.
After this campaign, the collection and treatment of garbage in Ha Long Bay will be carried out continuously and regularly./.
