The Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) revealed yesterday that four Vietnamese fishermen have been apprehended by authorities after they were allegedly caught in the act of using sodium cyanide, a poisonous compound, in their fishing activities off Pag-asa (Thitu) Island. The PCG said that the Vietnamese fishermen, whose identities were not made public, were arrested in the vicinity waters off Pag-asa Island in Kalayaan, Palawan last Sept. 18 by joint forces of the PCG Station Kalayaan, Philippine Navy (PN), and Philippine National Police-Maritime Group (PNP-MG).
