Officials from Quang Ngai provincial administration and Ly Son District, and the crew's relatives and friends, gathered at the port to welcome them.
Cao Khoa, deputy secretary of the provincial Party Committee, met the fishermen and asked local authorities help them repair their ship so they can resume fishing.
Local agencies and businesses raised funds to help the men. Each received nearly VND15 million (US$750).
Mai Phung Luu, the captain, expressed his thanks to central and local agencies for trying their best to get the fishermen home.
He also thanked China for rescuing them after their boat had broken down and was drifting at sea.
Quang Ngai People's Committee presented certificates of merit to the Foreign Ministry's Consular Department and the officers and crew of the Vietnamese Marine Police patrol vessel for their help in bringing the fishing boat home safely. — VNS
