Excerpt

In an effort to help the fisheries sector in this northeastern tip city of Surigao, a convergence program had been finalized to support the Surigao City Mariculture Park (SCMP) in Barangay Nabajo here. SCMP sits on a more than 100- hectare seashore area which is open for a private marine business joint venture with the local government of Surigao City. Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD), Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR) and city government of Surigao is expected to boost the supply of fish like milkfish (bangus) in Northeastern Mindanao (Caraga region) and neighboring areas.
