There are actually many opportunities waiting for the enterprising to undertake. Like, for instance, Jose "Lebong" Aralar in Binangonan, Rizal. He used to be a nurse in a hospital many years ago. However, he saw the potential of producing carp and tilapia fingerlings and decided to try his luck right in his luck right in his barangay. Today, he has a thriving fish hatchery business producing millions of fingerlings and supplying the requirements of hundreds of fish farmers not only around Laguna Lake but also elsewhere. This entrepreneur had enough initiative to train under experts of SEAFDEC which has a research station in Binangonan.
