    Healthy alternative to fish sauce
    Yap, Julio Jr (Panay News, Inc., 2020-05-18)
    Following the increasing demand for healthier food and food ingredients, a low-salt fermented mussel sauce was developed by the University of the Philippines Visayas (UPV). Initially branded as “Patis Tahong,” this condiment or dipping sauce is made from fermented green mussels (Perna viridis). As an alternative to the usual fermented fish patis, it can be used to add flavor to different dishes, soup preparations, as well as a traditional “sawsawan” or dipping sauce. It was claimed that Patis Tahong has the potential of being a functional food and food ingredient.

    PCAARRD’s ‘Kontra COVID-19’ initiative
    Yap, Julio Jr (Panay News, Inc., 2020-05-08)
    The Philippine Council for Agriculture, Aquatic and Natural Resources Research and Development of the Department of Science and Technology (DOST-PCAARRD) initiated the GALING PCAARRD Kontra COVID-19 Program in response to the recent pandemic outbreak of Corona Virus Disease (COVID-19). The “GALING” or Good Agri-Aqua Livelihood Initiatives towards National Goals is also a Filipino term, which means Healing (from COVID-19) and Excellence, which resonates with PCAARRD’s tagline, Excellence in aquatic and natural resources research innovations. When pronounced with a slow accent, the word “galing” also means from, denoting that the technology offerings are from the various research and development (R&D) initiatives of the DOST-PCAARRD.

    What lies beneath: exploring Benham Rise's unknown treasures
    Cinco, Maricar (Philippine Daily Inquirer, Inc., 2017-03-18)
    Benham Rise, the underwater landmass northeast of Luzon that the United Nations declared part of the Philippines’ continental shelf, has been grabbing headlines because of the presence of Chinese ships that may or may not have been given permission to do research in the area, according to conflicting claims by President Duterte, Defense chief Delfin Lorenzana, as well as Foreign Affairs officials. What remains undisputed, however, are the possible trove of mineral and gas deposits about 3,000 meters below the water’s surface that have yet to be discovered. Sometimes referred to as the Benham Plateau, the landmass, described to have a craggy or rough surface, is bigger than Luzon or almost half the size of the Philippine’s total land area. It extends eastward off the provinces of Aurora and Isabel, and the Bicol region, but has always been connected to Luzon’s landmass through the Bicol and Palanan saddles.
