For the Prime Minister Deputy Prime Minister PHAN VAN KHAI DIRECTIVE No.151-TTg ON THE 11TH OF MARCH, 1995 OF THE PRIME MINISTER TO CONCENTRATE FORCES TO QUICKLY ERADICATE THE YELLOW SNAIL PEST Recently, the local administration at different levels, and the Ministries and branches concerned have made great efforts in implementing Directive No.528-TTg on the 29th of September, 1994 of the Prime Minister on banning the raising of, and on eradicating yellow snails, and have obtained initial good results. However, due to the fact that the Ministry of Agriculture and Food Industry as well as the branches concerned have not fully realized their responsibility to seriously guide the implementation of this Directive, and many localities are not fully aware of the serious harm caused by yellow snails, they have not yet taken urgent measures to guide the destruction of yellow snails right from the beginning in order to prevent them from spreading. Some localities upon discovering the damage done by yellow snails have taken improper measures, or have not done it in a uniform manner, such as allocating budget to buy snail eggs, leaving the job to anyone who discovered the snails, without organizing an all-out, urgent campaign. In such serious situation, any delay in quickly discovering and promptly destroying yellow snails will cause unforeseeable damage to agricultural production, particularly rice production. Experiences in many countries of the region have shown that when this pest has spread, there will be not only harvest losses, but it will also a lot of energy, money and time to eradicate the pest. In order to eradicate the yellow snail pest, the Prime Minister requests the Presidents of the People's Committees of the provinces and cities directly under the Central Government, the Minister of Agriculture and Food Industry, the Minister of Aquatic Resources, the Minister of Science, Technology and Environment, and the Heads of the branches concerned, to urgently take the following measures: 1. Right in March 1995, the local administration at different levels must make a concrete plan, mobilize all forces, everybody, every household, and, if necessary pupils, the armed forces and workers in the socio-economic organization based in their locality, and launch one to two drives, each lasting 5-7 days, sending everybody to the fields to search and destroy yellow snails; then assign each household to search and destroy yellow snails and their eggs right on the field, swamp, pond and lake currently under their use in order to eradicate the yellow snails by June 1995. 2. The Presidents of the People's Committees at various levels must take personal responsibility and direction for the destruction of yellow snails at all costs, and avoid any subjective attitude, even in those areas not yet affected by yellow snails, or where yellow snails have appeared only on a small scale. 3. In furtherance of their function and task, the Ministry of Agriculture and Food Industry is mainly responsible, together with the Ministry of Aquatic Resources, the Ministry of Science, Technology and Environment and the branches concerned, for mobilizing all their forces to guide, help and inspect the localities in strictly carrying out this Directive. 4. The Ministry of Trade, in cooperation with the Ministry of Aquatic Resources, must investigate immediately and report to the Prime Minister those agencies which have suggested and applied for the importation of yellow snails, and those agencies which have licensed the importation and have imported yellow snails into Vietnam, thus leading to such grave consequences. 5. The mass media should analyze the harm, and provide guidance on the measures and experiences in catching yellow snails and collecting their eggs in each locality, commend those localities which have done it well, criticize and help those localities which have failed to do it well, and popularize this Directive through the mass media to help the entire people understand and carry it out. Upon receipt of this Directive, the People's Committees of the provinces and cities directly under the Central Government shall have to report to the Prime Minister the extent to which yellow snails have spread in their localities as well as the plan, measures and time necessary for eradicating yellow snails in their localities.
