Fishermen badly affected by MCO, says association

PETALING JAYA: The income of fishermen has been badly affected as they are unable to sell their catch to sellers despite the government allowing fishermen to continue to operate during the movement control order (MCO), says Jaringan Nelayan Pantai Malaysia (Jaring).

Its secretary Azrilnizam Omar said the MCO had a negative effect on certain fishery sectors, especially coastal fishing communities.
