To help marginal fisherfolks uplift their economic status, the Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center (SEAFDEC) focuses its current thrusts on aquaculture technology. Moreover, a technology and verification extension unit was created by SEAFDEC to transform aquaculture researches into production systems that would benefit two types of end-users: the big fishing industries and the marginal fisherfolks. DA Undersecretary Cesar Drilon Jr., during his recent visit for SEAFDEC's 27th anniversary said that what they hope to accomplish is to see a fisherman watching on his own TV or listening to his own radio.
