Excerpt
The "relentless" implementation of anti-illegal fishing laws and inclement weather resulted to low supply of galunggong, forcing authorities to import, an official said Monday. Under current laws, only small boats are allowed to fish 15 kilometers from the shore but these aren't enough to catch all available supply compared to commercial fishing vessels, said Agriculture Usec. Eduardo Gongona, director of the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources. Commercial fishing vessels should be allowed to fish in municipal waters, which falls under the jurisdiction of local government units, he said.
