    Escudero: Prioritize growth of local fishing industry over importation
    Casayuran, Mario (Manila Bulletin Publishing Corporation, 2022-01-22)
    Sorsogon Governor Francis ‘’Chiz’’ Escudero has said helping the local fishing industry grow and making it competitive should be the priority of the government over importation to address a projected shortage, if it wants to ensure a steady stream of fish supply in the country. Escudero, a senatorial candidate, said a recent announcement by the Department of Agriculture (DA) to import 60,000 metric tons of fish due to its projected supply shortfall of 119,000 metric tons from January to March is worrisome.

    Villar, Legarda question DA's 60,000-ton fish import
    Casayuran, Mario (Manila Bulletin Publishing Corporation, 2022-01-25)
    Senator Cynthia A. Villar and House Deputy Speaker Loren Legarda on Monday, Jan. 24 questioned the decision of the Department of Agriculture (DA) to import 60,000 metric tons of fish. During her hybrid hearing on issues surrounding the fish industry as chairwoman of the Senate Agriculture, Food and Agrarian Reform committee, Villar said the DA should have suspended the closed fishing season instead of deciding to import fish for the first quarter of 2022.
