Small fishers picket DA over commercial fishing in municipal waters
The Philippine Star
|January 07, 2025
Small fishers belonging to the Pambansang Lakas ng Kilusang Mamamalakaya ng Pilipinas (PAMALAKAYA) yesterday picketed in front of the Department of Agriculture to denounce the ruling allowing commercial fishing vessels to operate within the 15-kilometer municipal waters.
PAMALAKAYA vice chairman Ronnel Arambulo said the DA is accountable over its alleged failure to uphold the preferential rights of small fisherfolk to traditional fishing grounds.
"The DA is mum at the height of the noise of small fishermen against the big businessmen inside our fishing grounds," Arambulo said.
On Dec. 19 last year, the Supreme Court (SC) nullified provisions of the Fisheries Code restricting commercial fishing within municipal waters. Some members of PAMALAKAYA's provincial chapter in La Union also joined the protest.
