The cause of mass fish deaths in Central Vietnam: what mistrust is being built?

In an international press conference hold by the Government Office of Vietnam on 30th June 2016, the government representatives announced that Hung Nghiep Formosa Ha Tinh Steel Co. Ltd (“FHS”)  running a 10.6 USD steel complex in North Central Vietnm admitted their charges in the mass fish deaths across the four central coastal provinces of Vietnam. 

Such an announcement was proven by a brief video shown at the conference, in which President of the FHS  said thatthe test runs as well as test results from the research and analysis of the inter-disciplinary inspection team under the direction of the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment which includes Vietnamese and international scientists have all come to conclusion that incidents within the operation of our factory have caused the environmental incident that led to the recent mass deaths of fish off the coast of Viet Nam’s four central provinces.
