Excerpt
Negros Occidental 3rd District’s Cong. Francisco “Kiko” Benitez reiterated full support for the fisheries sector and its stakeholders during the planning workshop of the Negros 3rd District Coastal Resources Management and Development Council (N3DCRMDC) held on March 18 in Talisay City under the auspices of the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) Fish Right Program. Benitez said the sector needs critical attention as resources are notably declining brought about by several causes, and it is a welcome move to be working together with an urgency. With the guidance of the USAID Fish Right Program, the N3DCRMDC that brought together representatives of the four coastal areas in the 3rd District – namely, Victorias, EB Magalona, Silay, and Talisay – an eco-system approach to fisheries management is now in the planning stage, targeting to improve management of coastal resources through closer cooperation, coordination and convergence.
