Seven towns and cities in Region 6 are entitled to receive P1 million worth of projects from the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR) for registering the highest number of municipal fisherfolk. The seven LGUs from Negros Occidental, Guimaras and Iloilo are included in the 100 cities and towns which topped the Municipal Fisherfolk Registration or FishR.
