    Creating communal value through marine life protection
    (Panay News, Inc., 2022-02-16)
    ACEN’s Guimaras Wind Corporation (GWC) partnered with the Municipality of Dumangas to lead a pioneering coastal project with the goal of rehabilitating over 90 hectares of fish sanctuary and installing over 200 artificial reefs along the Dumangas Strait. To sustainably cultivate marine biodiversity along the coast of Western Visayas, GWC joined the representatives of the local government in a ceremony last November 16, 2021 to officially commence the project. Present in the event were Mayor Ronaldo Golez, the department heads of Dumangas LGU, the Bantay Dagat coalition, Dumangas Police Station and the Philippine Coast Guard, along with the GWC management team. Last year, ACEN, the Ayala group’s listed energy platform, signed a memorandum of agreement with the local government to initiate the development of artificial reefs through GWC as a key strategy to enhance coastal fisheries.

    RP aquaculture sector benefits from BFAR-SEAFDEC program
    Fernandez, Rudy A. (Philippine Star Printing Co., Inc., 2002-06-02)
    The country's aquaculture sector continues to benefit considerably from a program jointly being implemented by a government agency and a Southeast Asian center. Called Joint Mission for Accelerated Nationwide Technology Transfer Program (JMANTTP), the undertaking was launched in January 1999 by the Department of Agriculture-Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (DA-BFAR) and the government-hosted Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center Aquaculture Department (SEAFDEC AQD) based in Tigbauan, Iloilo. The program was convinced to make available technologies developed at SEAFDEC AQD to its host country, the Philippines.
