  • Importing galunggong will disadvantage 1.5M fisherfolk'
    (Panay News, Inc., 2018-09-01)
    The Department of Agriculture’s (DA) plan to import round scad, or galunggong every year will disadvantage some one and a half million small fisherfolk in the country, Sen. Cynthia Villar said. Villar, who chairs the Senate committee on agriculture and food, said imported galunggong will compete against the locally produced fish variety. “Kasi kapag nag-iimport tayo that is competition to our one and a half million fisherfolk in the municipal water na mahihirap,” she said on the sidelines of the 14th Agriculture and Fisheries Technology Forum in Mandaluyong City.
