HCM City authorities have seized 84 documents of a Chinese tourism firm which shows China’s unilaterally declared Nine-dash Line in the East Sea.

According to Bui Ta Hoang Vu, director of the HCM City Department of Tourism, the documents were brought by Hola China International Travel Service Co. Ltd. to International Travel Expo HCM City 2019 which happened in September.

However, the documents were seen before they were displayed at the event. After that, the papers were seized. The company’s booth was also not allowed to open.

Despite no documents distributed to visitors, this was a big lesson for Vietnamese management agencies, Vu admitted.

He noted that municipal authorities would take action to prevent similar cases.

The film Abominable has also been pulled from Vietnamese cinemas for including a scene featuring a map indicating China's unilaterally declared U-shaped Line in the East Sea.
