ICYMI: Prohibiting small fish vendors from selling salmon and pampano is “anti-poor,” Senator Raffy Tulfo said.
Salmon and pompano, however, may be consumed in hotels and restaurants only, said BFAR.
“Nabigla rin ang mga mamimili na nais makapaghain ng mga pagkaing ito sa Pasko… Ang mga mayayaman na lang na may perang makakain sa mga hotel at restaurant ang pwede lang makakain ng mga isda na ‘to or kung gusto mo makakain nito, ‘yung mga delata na lang ang pwede mong bilhin. This is anti-poor,” he continued.
Tulfo pointed out that the regulation and campaign should be conducted in ports, in coordination with the Bureau of Customs.
