KOTA KINABALU: Decades-old issue of fish bombing could become a thing of the past, as enforcement efforts transition towards full digitalisation and the use of marine forensic techniques for more efficient detection and prevention.
“While enforcement has slightly reduced these activities, the problem remains persistent, particularly in areas like Kota Kinabalu, Kudat, Sandakan, Tawau, and Semporna, the most severely affected region,” said Sabah Fisheries Department senior enforcement officer (enforcement and monitoring), Ruzlee Jumatin.
