The city government is mulling to extend an alternative livelihood to fisherfolk in the city as Mayor Jose Espinosa III on Monday underscored that the development of the highly-urbanized city must benefit everyone. The mayor met with close to 80 fisherfolk and discussed how the city government could help them. “One of the poorest sectors in our city is our fisherfolk. We still have 15 barangays (villages) whose residents are dependent on fishing,” he said.
