local.descriptionThe Ecosystems Research and Development Bureau (ERDB) is asking local government units (LGUs) to demarcate “no fishing” zones in “coral bleached” Snake Island, Palawan, to help replenish depleting fish inventory in what is also a tourist haven. The government in 2012 closed to the public Snake Island, which is found in a cluster of islands around top tourist destination El Nido, Puerto Princesa, Palawan. According to ERDB Director Sofio Quintana PhD, “In order to protect the island and to help in the recovery of the corals in the area, there is a need to delineate areas for fishing and non-fishing. This will allow the coral reefs to recover.”en
