We’ve enough fish supply, says LKIM

BUKIT GANTANG: Fish supply at the market is adequate even though fish landings have reduced by 10% during MCO 3.0, says Fisheries Development Authority of Malaysia (LKIM) chairman Datuk Syed Abu Hussin Hafiz Syed Abdul Fasal.He said the lack of landings was due to a shortage of boat crew as they could not be brought into the country.

“Deep-sea activities need a skipper and crew comprising foreign nationals because locals are not keen to work due to the required long period at sea.
