local.seafdecaqd.extractSome 50 fisherfolk leaders and environmental activists urged Pres. Noynoy Aquino to suspend the implementation of the Fisheries Code of 1998 (RA No. 8550) due its failure to protect the livelihood and marine environment all over the country. "We strongly urge President Aquino to call on Congress to stop the implementation of RA 8550 and task both Congress and Senate to undertake impact assessment and performance evaluation of the 12-year-old fisheries law. The reports from the grassroots concerning the impact of the law on small fisherfolk is highly alarming and life threatening," Fernando Hicap of Pambansang Lakas ng Kilusang Mamalakaya ng Pilipinas (Pamalakaya) and Center for Environmental Concerns (CEC)-Philippines executive director Ces Quimpo said in a joint statement.en
