Excerpt
Sardine canners are appealing to the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR) to ease regulations on commercial fishing to avoid a shortfall in fish supply. Canned Sardines Association of the Philippines executive director Francisco Buencamino asked the BFAR to convene a multiparty meeting, including local government units in coastal areas, to discuss the possibility of allowing commercial fishing boats to operate close to the shorelines covered by municipal waters.
