GEORGE TOWN, Sept 3 — The Penang government will provide aid to breeders who suffered losses after their cage-bred fish died due to the ‘red water’ phenomenon in waters off Teluk Bahang, near here, last week.
“The incident has caused six caged fish breeders to suffer losses after 12 tonnes of fish they had been farming died. I brought this matter to the state executive council meeting last week and have requested appropriate assistance from the state government to reduce their burden. Local fishermen have expressed concern over the death of fish and marine life as a result of the phenomenon, which occurred in an area about one kilometre from Muka Head to the coast off Teluk Bahang.
Meanwhile, Fahmi who is also the Pantai Jerejak assemblyman said that the red water phenomenon that occurred in the Teluk Bahang waters had not spread to other parts of the state’s waters.
