BFAR shelves plan to seize imported fish in wet markets
Excerpt
The Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR) will defer, for now, its crackdown on the sale of imported fish, such as salmon and pompano in wet markets, amid its ongoing review of government regulations concerning these imports. “What we have in mind is to strengthen the previous strategy or law enforcement processes that we are doing, and in doing so, probably we will be able to avert [the] proliferation [of those products],” the agency’s officer in charge, Demosthenes Escoto, said at a press briefing Friday.
