HCM CITY — Viet Nam should immediately look for ways to avoid becoming an industrial garbage dump, a senior official said on Monday.

Nguyen Xuan Ly, head of the Ministry of Public Security's Environmental Crime Prevention Department, also told a seminar held in HCM City that environmental crimes and violations in the management of hazardous waste had increased nationwide in "complicated" ways.

The main reason was that legal punishments were not strong enough to deter such actions, he said.

The seminar discussed ways to prevent and fight environmental crimes and violations relating to hazardous waste management.

Ly said just 60 per cent of hazardous waste generated in the country was treated and the remaining amount was illegally buried, dumped into the environment or recycled for use.

In 2010, Viet Nam discharged about 32 million tonnes of solid waste, including 1 million tonnes of hazardous waste.
