Vietnamese rally over mass fish deaths

HANOI: Hundreds of people gathered Sunday in the Vietnamese capital to protest against a Taiwanese company suspected of involvement in a toxic leak that has hit the fishing industry along the central coast.
Tonnes of dead clams were found last week in Ha Tinh province where fish began washing up on beaches earlier in April, sparking a public outcry. The area is home to a large steel mill run by a Taiwanese conglomerate, Formosa.
Demonstrators who marched around Hoan Kiem lake in central Hanoi carried banners reading “The sea dies, we die” among others.
