ISKANDAR PUTERI: Located about 40km away from Johor Baru, at Jetty Pak Ngah in Pendas Laut here lies a small market that has been somewhat of a lifeline to some 40 fishermen from around the area.

The market, dubbed Pasar Pendekar Laut, is the brainchild of 35-year-old fisherman Shalan Jum’at who wants to give the fishing community here a chance of getting fair earnings for their hard work.
