    (Daily Guardian Multi-Media Services, Inc., 2019-01-09)
    The fishery industry of Negros Occidental is seen to get a boost through the partnership of the academe and the business sector with the United States Agency for International Development (USAID). Frank Carbon, chief executive officer of Metro Bacolod Chamber of Commerce and Industry (MBCCI), said Monday the possible collaboration will cover the seas in the southern part of the province facing Hinoba-an, Sipalay City, and Cauayan, which are abundant in high-value fish products, such as tuna.

    Stronger drive vs commercial fishing in municipal waters urged
    (Daily Guardian Multi-Media Services, Inc., 2015-09-29)
    An umbrella organization of small fishermen here urged the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR) and local government units (LGUs) to strengthen the campaign against commercial fishing in municipal waters of the province. Abcede Jardinico, acting chairman of the Negros Occidental Small Fishers Association (NOSFA), said commercial fishing vessel operations, including “hulbot-hulbot”, greatly affected the livelihood of small fisherfolks. Section 18 of the Republic Act 8550 (Philippine Fisheries Code of 1998) states that “all fishery-related activities in municipal waters, as defined in this Code, shall be utilized by municipal fisherfolk and their cooperatives or organizations which are listed as such in the registry of municipal fisherfolk.”
