Small fishermen belonging to the Pamalakaya added their voice to the growing sentiment against the stop order issued by Malacanang against the implementation of the vessel monitoring system (VMS) for commercial fishing boats.
SMALL fishermen belonging to the Pambansang Lakas ng Kilusang Mamamalakaya ng Pilipinas added their voice to the growing sentiment against the stop order issued by Malacanang against the implementation of the vessel monitoring system for commercial fishing boats.
Under Fisheries Administrative Order 266, commercial fishing vessels that weigh 3.1 gross tons and above, are required to install Vessel Monitoring System and Electronic Reporting System . “For us, small and municipal fishers, we don’t buy the drama of some commercial fishing groups that comply with the vessel monitoring scheme could pose negative impacts to the local production, because their production is based on export to begin with. We instead urge the commercial fishing industry to strictly observe the regulatory measure to ensure that our fishing grounds, especially the municipal waters, are genuinely protected and preserved for our domestic fishery needs,” he said.
