    Excerpt
    The importation of round scad, or galunggong, will affect the livelihoods of 1.5million fisherfolk, according to Senator Cynthia A. Villar, who chairs her chamber’s committee on agriculture and food. “There is a need to help fisherfolk to produce more fish rather than import. Imports compete with the fish sold by one and a half million fisherfolk using municipal waters, who are very poor,” Ms. Villar told reporters on Thursday on the sidelines of the 14th Agriculture and Fisheries Technology Forum and Product Exhibition in Mandaluyong.
