Agriculture Secretary Francisco Tiu Laurel Jr. implemented a halt on the importation of frozen galunggong (Round Scad -Decapterus punctatus), tulingan (Frigate - Auxis thazard) and alumahan (Indian mackerel - Rastrelliger kanagurta) to stop these supplies from being redirected to wet markets. Fish cage operators commented that preventing this diversion could foster growth in the local aquaculture sector.
