Honored were Wilfredo Yap, who conceptualized the Mariculture Park System for sustainable aquaculture in the sea, and Catalino de la Cruz, pioneering expert on aquaculture engineering and integrated agri-aqua farming. The Society of Aquaculture Engineers of the Philippines (SAEP) honored them at the Asian Fisheries Academy (AFA) in Dagupan City.

    BFAR destroys infected white shrimps
    Visperas, Eva (Philippine Star Printing Co., Inc., 2005-04-12)
    About 1,100 pieces of imported white shrimps known as "Peneaus vannamei," costing $35 each, will be "destroyed" today, following a recommendation by the Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center Aquaculture Department (SEAFDEC) to Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR) Director Malcolm Sarmiento. The shrimps, which were imported from Hawaii and cultured at the BFAR office, were found infected with a disease. Several groups from the media and the SEAFDEC were invited to witness the destruction of the shrimps. But, Westly Rosario, the BFAR center chief here, belied reports that that the disease found in these breeders was the deadly Taura syndrome virus, a kind of prawn disease initially found among shrimps in the Ecuador river in 1992.

    Who killed the milkfish?
    Cardinoza, Gabriel (Philippine Daily Inquirer, Inc., 2011-06-08)
    They're stubborn. These are the words of Nestor Domenden, regional director of the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR) when asked why fishkills have been a recurring nightmare in Bolinao and Anda towns in western Pangasinan in the last 10 years. “They (milkfish growers) know where their fishing structures should be built, but they continued to disregard it,” Domenden says. A report from the office of the provincial agriculturist in Lingayen shows that 72 of the 75 fishkill-hit cages were built in the waters off Catubig Point in Barangay Tara up to Barangay Culang in Bolinao, while the rest, mostly bamboo pens, dotted the fishing area from Barangay Mal-ong to Barangay Awag and across the Kakiputan Channel to the island village of Siapar in Anda.
