Conclusion
Quang Binh’s marine economy has gained
important achievements in recent years. The
contribution of marine economy in economic
growth rate, foreign investment attraction, economic restructure, territorial space change . of
Quang Binh province is getting bigger and bigger. However, in the development process, the
marine economic sectors have not yet fully promoted their inherent potentials; there is a lack of
a long-term Master Plan, no comprehensive system of policies to promote rapid, effective and
sustainable economic development . Therefore,
it is required that the province must have strategies and steps in the right direction to further
promote the internal and external advantages of
marine economic sectors in the near future.

CURRENT DEVELOPMENT SITUATION OF MARINE
ECONOMY IN QUANG BINH PROVINCE
Hoang Phan Hai Yen1
Abstract: Marine development trend with a new economic mindset is being paid great attention
by many countries in the world in order to solve socio-economic development issues for present and
future. Quang Binh is one of the 28 marine provinces and cities of Vietnam with the highest marine
influence index in the country. The determination of marine economy as a key development direc-
tion in recent years has made Quang Binh a fairly good province with many socio-economic crite-
ria achieving and increasing the set targets. The paper analyzes the current situation of marine
economic development, thereby proposing solutions to promote marine economic development of
Quang Binh province in the future.
Keywords: Economy, marine economy, coastal economy, coastal areas of Quang Binh Province.

1.Introduction
The world’s seas and oceans cover 71% of
the Earth's surface. Marine potential is much
greater than mainland’s one but due to its envi-
ronmental characteristics, the exploitation and
use of marine resource is still limited. Since an-
cient times, mankind has used the sea for vari-
ous purposes for life. Terms “marine economy”
is derived from human activities of marine ex-
ploration. Today, the marine economy is a group
of important economic sectors in the world econ-
omy, especially for the marine countries, it has
strategic roles.
Marine economy is narrowly construed as all
economic activities taking place on the sea,
mainly including: Maritime economy (shipping
and port services); seafood (fishing and aqua-
culture); offshore oil and gas exploitation; sea
travel; salt making; marine search and rescue
services; island economy. Marine economy is
broadly construed as economic activities directly
related to marine exploitation; although they do
not take place on sea, these economic activities
depend on sea elements or directly serve marine
economic activities in the coastal zones, for ex-
amples ship building and repairing, oil and gas
processing research, seafood processing indus-
try, marine services, marine communication, ma-
rine science and technology, human resources
training for marine economic management, and
basic surveys on marine environmental re-
sources.
Marine economy has developed since the
15th century, in the association with the geo-
graphical discovery in Europe. Today, marine
economic studies direction:
- General research on coastal areas, typically
the work of GoB (2005), EUCC (2007) [5]. The
authors focused on the study of the characteris-
tics and functions of coastal areas (including em-
phasis on socio-economic activities in the seas
and resource competitions among regions), is-
sues of coastal areas (environmental pollution,
resource degradation, natural disasters, environ-
mental incidents, climate change and sea level
rise, etc.).

- Researching on socio-economic activities in
coastal areas, typically the work of BMVBS and
BBR (2006) [3]. In this research, specific eco-
nomic sectors of the coastal strip are also men-
tioned.
- Research direction on the coastal environ-
ment, typically Ando et al. (2004) [2]. Such stud-
ies shows that the coastal environment is a
unified whole. Pollution of each environmental
component leads to influence on others. Among
these, the water environment has the greatest im-
pact on other environmental components.
In Vietnam, the role and importance of the
marine economy has been defined clearly, so in
recent decades, there have been many researches
on the marine and island economy mainly on
two main directions. i.e. Study on potentials,
general assessments of natural conditions and
natural resources in service of the general plan-
ning and development of socio-economic devel-
opment in coastal and islands economy; Study
on coastal and marine environment and impacts
of climate change (CC) on coastal environment.
Vietnam has 28/63 provinces and cities di-
rectly under the central government with
beaches, with 125 coastal districts and 12 is-
lands, accounting for 42% of national land area
and 45% of national population [1].
Quang Binh is a coastal province with 116.04
km long coastline and 20,000 km2 wide sea area
2 and 6 coastal districts and cities. In recent
years, marine economic sectors have contributed
a significant proportion in the production value
of economic sectors, the export value of the
province, creating jobs for many workers, creat-
ing a significant change in quality of life of peo-
ple ... However, Quang Binh’s marine economy
is still featured with small exploitation. It has not
promoted and fully awakened its marine poten-
tials and strengths to serve the process of eco-
nomic, social development and security -
defense; There has not had comprehensive pol-
icy system to promote the rapid, effective and
sustainable development of the marine economy;
the level of economic linkages between coastal
districts and cities in Quang Binh province is not
close human life in local coastal are still diffi-
cult, etc.
2. Materials and Methods
2.1 Data collection
The data is calculated and analyzed from
sources such as: Statistical Yearbook of Quang
Binh Statistical Office, reports of People’s Com-
mittee of Quang Binh province, Department of
Agriculture and Rural Development of Quang
Binh Province, Department of Tourism of Quang
Binh Province, People’s Committees of coastal
districts and towns in Quang Binh province. Pri-
mary data are collected and then processed, cal-
culated and summarized into tables for
comparison, comment and analysis. All data in
the period of 2010-2018 are collected and sur-
vey results are conducted in 2019.
2.2. Methodology
The paper combined following methods such
as: Data collection, analysis, synthesis and com-
parison. In particular, the author uses two main
methods:
- Field survey: in order to obtain necessary
information, apart from the collected primary
materials and data, field survey provides many
practical knowledge and documents which di-
versifies and supplement the content of the prob-
lem. This is also a typical and indispensable
method in geography research, especially socio-
economic geographic research. Within the scope
of the paper, the author conducted the field work,
observed, described and recorded the develop-
ment of marine economic sectors and fields in
some communes and wards under Quang Binh
coastal districts, towns and cities such as Hai
Thanh ward, Dong My ward, Quang Phu com-
mune, Bao Ninh commune (Dong Hoi city),
Nhan Trach commune (Bo Trach district).
- Managerial consultation: These were oral
interviews with chairmen of People’s Committee
of districts, towns, cities with beach, heads of
agriculture division, heads of agricultural exten-
sion stations, heads of labor, war invalids and so-
cial affairs offices of districts, towns and cities
bordering the sea. The total number of inter-
viewed managers is 10. The interview content is
mainly related to: Strategies and policies for ma-
rine economy development, challenges for ma-
rine economy development and current and
future CBT development solutions.
3. Results and Discussion
3.1. The main advantages of Quang Binh
province in marine economy development
Quang Binh is a coastal province with a
coastline of 116.04 km, territorial sea of 20,000
km2 with 6 coastal districts, towns and cities,
namely Dong Hoi City, Ba Don Town, Quang
Trach District, Bo Trach District, Quang Ninh
and Le Thuy district. The total natural area of the
territorial sea is 5,502 km2 the population in
2017 is 751,767 people, the average population
density is 337 people/km2, accounting for 68.2%
of the provincial area and 85.2% of the provin-
cial population. In particular, there is a large
workforce (accounting for 63% of the coastal
population), which is young, healthy, industri-
ous, hard-working. They are important labor re-
server for the development of the marine
economy which have to be employed and used
effectively.
It is considered that territorial sea of Quang
Binh province has large reserves of seafood
which are diverse and rich in species. It is esti-
mated to have over 1,000 species, including rare
species such as lobster, shrimp, black tiger,
squid, cuttlefish, cockle, sea snake, etc. These
seafood species are high economic value but
other provinces have litte or have not got. In the
current context, the aquaculture households in
Quang Binh are able to develop the salty and
brackish aquaculture industry. The potential
water surface area for salt and brackish aquacul-
ture in Quang Binh province is about 4,000 ha.
With regards to ecosystems, Quang Binh has
white coral reefs with an area of up to tens of
hectares. They are not only a source of fine art
materials with high economic value, but also cre-
ate conditions to maintain and develop the typi-
cal flora of the deep sea in the Central region of
Vietnam. According to the survey and assess-
ment data of the Directorate of Fisheries, the fish
reserve in Quang Binh territorial sea is about
51,000 tons. In addition, some species such as
tuna, flying fish, and the estimated shrimp re-
serve is 2,000 tons and squid is 8,000 to 10,000
tons.
With a long coastline and 20,000 km² of con-
tinental shelf, two large estuaries, Quang Binh
province is capable of developing into a large-
scale seaport such as Nhat Le and Gianh sea-
ports. In the near future, these seaports will be a
place to trade and connect major tourist centers
among the North Central of Vietnam, Vietnam
with Asean regions. In addition, Quang Binh
province contain a diverse and unique tourism
potential. Apart from Phong Nha - Ke Bang Na-
tional Park, which has been recognized as a
world natural heritage by UNESCO? Quang
Binh has a system of beautiful beaches like Nhat
Le beach, Da Nhay beach, Bao Ninh beach, and
spiritual tourism places like Vung Chua - Dao
Yen. Therefore, Quang Binh has increasingly at-
tracted more tourists to visit and relax.
3.2. Current development situation of ma-
rine economics in Quang Binh
a. Fisheries and exploration of aquatic prod-
ucts
The fishing capacity has been increasingly
enhanced, in the period of 2013 - 2017, the num-
ber of motorized ships and boats increased rap-
idly. The total number of motorized boats
increased from 4,346 units in 2013 to 5,443 units
in 2017 (an average growth of 4.6% /year).
Among these, from 2013 to 2015 the number of
boats decreased sharply, but then increased from
2016 - 2017. The number of boats in 2017 in-
creased 743 units compared to the former plan
and it mainly included boats operating in coastal
areas (581 units). The enhancement of fishing
capacity has brought about results in terms of

fishing capacity as well as economic values achieved by the fishing industry.

b. Salty brackish aquaculture
In the period of 2013 - 2017, the salty brack-
ish aquaculture area tended to increase slightly
with an annual growth rate of 1.7% from 1,274
ha in 2013 to 1,435 ha in 2017. Thus, compared
with the general growth rate of aquaculture in the
whole province (3.3%), the salty brackish water
aquaculture area increases more slowly.
The brackish aquaculture area decreased from
27% in 2013 to 24.2% of the total aquaculture
area because aquaculture zones were recovered
for economic and tourism development such as
in Hai Ninh commune - Quang Ninh (30 ha of
sand ponds), Phu Hai - Dong Hoi ward (about
40 ha of earthen ponds), etc. The locality with
the largest area growth rate is Le Thuy district,
15.9% / year. Aquaculture area in Dong Hoi city
decreased by 4.7%/year due to land recovery for
urbanization, economic development and
tourism.

Aquaculture area of vannamei accounted for
60.2%, of tiger shrimp accounted for 26.7%, of
sea crab accounted for 20.5% of salty brackish
water aquaculture area, the rest is for fish and
some aquatic species.
Methods of brackish water aquaculture in-
clude brackish water aquaculture in earthen
ponds, in water pond liners on coastal sand and
in water cages. Brackish water aquaculture in
earthen ponds, a common practice, increased
from 953 ha in 2013 to 1,200 ha in 2017 (aver-
age rate of 3.3%/year), ponds and lakes are
mainly concentrated in Quang Ninh, Bo Trach
district... Aquaculture in sand-lined ponds de-
creased from 321 ha in 2013 to 235 ha in 2017
(an average rate of -4.36%/year). This is a new
method that appeared in 2002 but the area de-
creased due sand pond recovery for the socio-
economic and tourism development. Brackish
water cage culture, which is a new method of
culture along the riverside such as Gianh river,
Nhat Le river with seabass and persimmon,
reached 957 cages in 2017.
c. Seafood processing and trading
- Source of raw materials for seafood pro-
cessing:
Raw materials for seafood processing, espe-
cially export processing, still mainly come from
the natural exploitation. aw materials from aqua-
culture (mainly brackish water shrimp) are often
unstable, seasonal and subject to strict food
safety and hygiene inspection.
Aquaculture products have faced with strict
EU inspection for the past decade because of
shrimp disease (white spot disease, hepatopan-
creatic necrosis ...), which have been found to be
contaminated with chemical residues, antibi-
otics, impurities pumping into shrimp ... in some
provinces. This significantly affected the shrimp
trading market.
In the structure of export seafood processing,
frozen products tend to decrease over the years,
from 2,447 tons in 2013 to 944 tons in 2017. Pro-
cessing of fish sauce tends to increase, from
3,471 million liters in 2013 to 3,976 million liters
in 2017 and the average growth rate is 1.96%.
Grilled fish increased from 3,100 tons in 2013 to
5,900 tons in 2017, the average annual growth
rate is 9.36%.
Poor development of seafood processing re-
sults from outdated processing technology, lim-
ited business management and market
experience. On the other hand, due to the fact
that most of factories which were equitized and
transferred to new investors did not have solu-
tions for technological innovation, business and
production reform and trade promotion. There-
fore, their export processing was delayed and the
majority of factories are not eligible for direct
export, and production for only some processed
goods and entrusted exports with low output.
Seafood processing products are still undiversi-
fied.
The domestic processing has been promoted;
the quality of dried seafood and fish sauce is
guaranteed and well consumed domestically.
The development of domestic production and
processing has contributed to solving the output
for fishing, creating jobs for fishermen and meet-
ing the consumption needs of people inside and
outside the province.
3.2.2. Sea tourism
a. Tourist market
The number of tourists to Quang Binh beach
in the past 5 years has got relatively fast growth.
The number of visitors increased from 943,840
in 2013 to 2,149,697in 2017 and, the average
growth of the whole period reached 17.9% and
equal to 65% of the total number of tourists to
Quang Binh.

BÀI BÁO KHOA HỌC
It can be seen that tourists to Quang Binh are
mainly for sea tourism which always accounts
for over 50% of the province's tourists. In gen-
eral, the number of tourists to Quang Binh tends
to increase but decreased in 2016. This situation
is affected by many objective factors, mainly due
to the marine environmental incident in 2016
that directly affected Quang Binh sea and
thereby reducing the number of tourists to the
sea. Moreover, the investment in developing
tourism in many new tourist destinations makes
tourists to Quang Binh not only for sea-bathing
but also tourissm destinations in the province.
Quang Binh sea tourism showed very good signs
of recovery, the number of tourists increased 1.9
times in 2017 compared to that in 2016. As a re-
sult, the proportion of sea tourists rose up to 65%
of the total number of tourists.
The number of tourists to Quang Binh terri-
torial sea is differentiated. according to seasons:
70 - 80% of visitors come in the tourist season
from May 1 to August 31, only 20-30% come in
off tourist season. Relaxation and swimming are
popular in combination with visiting a number
of cultural monuments and festivals, for example
Vung Chua - Dao Yen, Canh Duong mural vil-
lage, seasonal festival, fishing festival...
Regarding the structure of tourists to Quang
Binh territorial sea, the majority of tourists are
domestic tourists, accounting for over 97% of the
total number of tourists. This percentage has al-
most no shift from 2013 to 2016, the amount of
International visitors accounts for a very small
percentage, about 2%. This shows that the at-
traction of Quang Binh sea tourism to the world
is too little and mainly still to domestic tourists.
b. Sea tourism revenue
Table 3. Sea tourism revenue in Quang Binh for the period of 2013 - 2017 [4,7]
Unit 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017
Quang Binh (1) Billion
dong 1,376 3,031 3,148 2,273 3,737
Marine area Billion
dong 923 1,849 1,960 1,323 2,623
Ratio 2/1 % 67.05 61.00 62.25 58.20 70.20
In the period of 2013 - 2015, tourism sea
tourism revenue increased rapidly and increased
from 923 billion VND in 2013 (accounting for
67.05% of the total tourism revenue of the
province) to 1,960 billion VND in 2015 which
is 2.1 times higher than that in 2013 Although
tourism revenue in 2016 decreased due to the im-
pact of marine environment, the following years
increased rapidly again, reaching 2,623 billion
VND, accounting for 70.20% of tourism revenue
of the whole province and an average growth of
the whole period reached 23.2%. Thus, com-
pared to the growth rate of tourist arrivals, the
increase in revenue is higher.
3.2.3. Marine industry
The province has a coastline of 116.04 km
and territorial sea of about 20,000 km2 with 5 es-
tuaries and important ports such as Nhat Le port,
Gianh port, Hon La port, Thang Loi deep-water
port in airtight location. It is very convenient for
mooring and developing fishing logistics and
shipping services. Among the four ports in
Quang Binh, Hon La port has the largest cargo
throughput (3,172,345 tons in 2017). Gianh Port
has a small custom clearance capacity and
throughput. Along with the seaport system de-
velopment, shipping flows and shipping revenue
also tends to increase.
Fig. 2. Shipping revenue of Quang Binh in the period 2013 - 2017 (VND billion) [4]
Shipping revenue increased from VND 53.1
billion in 2013 to VND 59.3 billion in 2017, 1.1
times higher in the past 5 years but such a growth
rate is still slow and not commensurate with the
potential of sea transportation development. The
contribution of sea transport to the overall rev-
enue of the province's transport is 1.9%, a very
modest figure. Shipping revenue structure comes
from 100% cargo shipping.
3.2.4. Marine minerals exploiting and pro-
cessing
The territorial sea and islands of Quang Binh
province have many precious minerals such as
gold, iron, titanium, pyrite, lead, zinc and some
other non-metallic minerals such as kaolin,
quartz sand, limestone, granite...
Quartz sand in Quang Binh province has
good quality compared to that in other regions in
the country, so it is an advantage for Quang Binh
province to develop high-quality glass industry
to serve domestic demand and export to foreign
countries. In the north, there are white sand
beach with an area of nearly 40 km2 and esti-
mated reserves of 35 million tons in Ba Don -
Quang Trach, and with reserves of 5 million tons
in Thanh Khe - Bo Trach. The sand is high pu-
rity quartz, fine-sized, with Si02 content of 98-
99%. It is located next to roads, so it is easy to
exploit and transport and can serve the produc-
tion of high-class glass goods and materials from
other silicate. In the period from 2013-2017,
sand mining output tended to increase, from
1,593,674 m3 in 2013 to 1,664,542 m3 in 2017,
the average growth rate of the whole period was
1.87%.
Regarding titanium exploitation, the provin-
cial People’s Committee has granted 6 titanium
exploitation licenses to four companies located
mainly in the key coastal sandy areas of Quang
Trach and Le Thuy districts. Titanium exploita-
tion activities are concentrated in Le Thuy and
four companies have been licensed to exploit
Titan with an area of about 150 ha but 3 compa-
nies have not exploited yet, including Thanh
Binh Construction Company Limited, Sen Hong
Company Limited, and Hoang Long Mineral
Joint Stock Company. Particularly, Quang Binh
Import-Export Joint Stock Company has been
granted 100 hectares and has exploited 76
hectares. Titanium exploitation output in Quang
Binh is still low and tends to decrease, from
43,360 tons in 2013 to 25,897 tons in 2017 with
the average growth of -12.1%.
3.2.5. Salt production
Salt production of Quang Binh in 2013
reached 8,930 tons and tended to decrease, es-
pecially the direct impact of marine environ-
mental incidents caused the sharp drop to 6,585
tons in 2016 and the output increased slightly in
207 but still not equal to the output of previous
years. In the whole period, salt production de-
creased with the average growth of the whole pe-
riod of -4.4%. The salt production decrease
results from the narrowing of salt production
area in Quang Binh.

Sea salt 8,930 8,294 8,254 6,585 7,472
Currently, salt production in Quang Binh is
only maintained in Quang Phu commune (Quang
Trach district). Quang Phu now has 74.81 ha of
salt production land located mainly in 4 villages
of Phu Loc 1,2,3,4 with 268 households and
more than 600 laborers working in the field.
With an average output of 100 tons/1 ha/season
(with value of about 100-150 million VND), the
average annual salt output of Quang Phu is about
6,000-7,500 tons, reaching a turnover of 9-11
billion VND.
3.3. General assessment of the marine econ-
omy development in Quang Binh province
Over the past 5 years, Quang Binh has con-
tinued to take advantage of the potentials and ad-
vantages of its seas and coastal areas to develop
marine economic sectors. The right policy line
for marine economic development is suitable
with the general situation of the province as well
as with the international and domestic context,
thereby created favorable conditions for the de-
velopment of Quang Binh’s marine industry
with a quite diverse structure. Among these,
seafood and marine tourism are the two main
sectors. The development of marine economic
sectors in recent years has great significance for
the province’s overall economy, especially ma-
rine economy.
However, this development is still not com-
mensurate with the local potential and advan-
tages; the contribution rate in the economy is
generally small and there has had no cooperation
among marine economic sectors yet.
Production capacity of fishing increases, but
is mainly small-sized and manual. Investment
capital for motor vehicle procurement with large
capacity and technology is limited, so, they are
unable to go to the sea for a long time. Splendid
fishing grounds and high-density fishing boats
lead to over-exploitation. The protection of ma-
rine resources has not been thoroughly imple-
mented. Estuaries, creeks and fishing stakes have
been exploited all year round, that has destroyed
food sources for brackish and brackish aquacul-
ture and many larvae of high value brackish
water species. The fishing with mines has led to
a significant reduction in the stock of some ma-
rine species. All labor forces have been free to
do business and compete with each other, so
state owned companies have operated ineffec-
tively and are unable to adapt the market mech-
anism. Some production facilities have to be
dissolved or merged.
The growth of marine tourism is not com-
mensurate with the potential and available
tourism resources; in term of sea tourism, the
number of international tourists is small and the
number of domestic tourists with low consump-
tion capacity is predominant. Tourism business
achieved low efficiency and small contribution
to the province’s GRDP; Quang Binh sea
tourism development is seriously imbalanced,
mainly focusing on developing accommodation
business, but travel and transportation business
and entertainment services are undeveloped. The
market for tourists is still limited due to shortage
of attractive tour or journey, and no linkage be-
tween tourism activities with traditional festi-
vals, trade villages and tourism businesses. The
sea tourism is also highly seasonal. Tourism
products are poor and undiversified with low
competitiveness. The operation of services is still
small-sized, and fragmented. Although service
quality has been improved, most of them are still
at a low level compared to the normal level.
Maritime industry has developed weakly
compared to the province's potential. The port
and sea network operation efficiency is not high.
Its competitiveness is lower than other means of
transport. Among the seaports in Quang Binh,
only Hon La port has a significant operating ca-
pacity, but its efficiency is not high. Infrastruc-
ture in the port has not been well invested; means
of loading and unloading equipment, storage and
transportation of cargo have not been modern-
ized and developed synchronously.
4. Conclusion
Quang Binh’s marine economy has gained
important achievements in recent years. The
contribution of marine economy in economic
growth rate, foreign investment attraction, eco-
nomic restructure, territorial space change ... of
Quang Binh province is getting bigger and big-
ger. However, in the development process, the
marine economic sectors have not yet fully pro-
moted their inherent potentials; there is a lack of
a long-term Master Plan, no comprehensive sys-
tem of policies to promote rapid, effective and
sustainable economic development ... Therefore,
it is required that the province must have strate-
gies and steps in the right direction to further
promote the internal and external advantages of
marine economic sectors in the near future.
