Excerpt

Aside from the economic activities resulting from the operation of the Cavite Economic Zone in the Municipality of Rosario, fishing and cottage industries related to fishing such as smoked fish (tinapa) processing, fish drying (daing), fish paste (bagoong) making, fish sauce (patis) making and canning are among the major sources of livelihood by its residents due to the abundance of fishing grounds. In fact, Rosario is named the Smoked Fish Capital of Cavite because of its finest and famous "tinapang salina," But in the past few years, a large percentage of coastal communities have been experiencing a disturbing decrease of fish within the municipal waters.
