Gensan fishing industry to lose ₱400 M
Excerpt
The local fishing industry here is going to lose some R400 million in revenues once the city’s fish port complex shuts its operation from September 2-5 after several workers of the fish port facility tested positive for coronavirus disease (COVID-19). The local Inter-Agency Task Force has recommended to the management of the Philippine Fisheries Development Authority to shut down the operations at the fish port complex after several COVID-19 cases had been traced to workers at the fish port facility. City Mayor Ronnel Rivera said the closure of the fish port complex will pave for the conduct of contact-tracing of people of who made close contacts with the COVID-19 patients and the disinfection of the three fish port market areas.
