KOTA KINABALU: A shrimp company in Sabah's east coast Tawau has become the first in Malaysia to receive an Aquaculture Stewardship Council (ASC) certification, a globally recognised eco-label.
Sankina Aquaculture Sdn Bhd received the ASC certification after it worked with WWF Malaysia to put the Aquaculture Improvement Project in place in 2019.
Under the programme, Sankina Aquaculture conducted restoration and preservation activities for the mangrove areas within and adjacent to their farm site, implementing strict protocol where wastewater is pre-treated to manage pollution and setting up systems to improve workers' welfare. Sakina also received support from the Sabah Fisheries Department leading the way for Sankina Aquaculture to be awarded the ASC certification, making it the first shrimp farm in Malaysia to receive the globally recognised eco-label certification.
"This recognition is a testament to our deep commitment to preserving the planet and ensuring a brighter future for generations to come.
