Govt looking at tackling illegal fishing, decline in prices

By The Nation

 

 

The adviser to the Minister of Agriculture and Cooperatives, Alongkorn Ponlaboot led a team to Ranong province on Thursday (January 23) to inspect fishery checkpoints and fish markets in order to solve the problem of falling prices.

 

He also held a meeting with chiefs under the ministry at the Marine Fisheries Research and Development Division. He urged officers to focus on resolving the problem of illegal fishing and prices, which were affected by the import of fish from foreign countries.

 

 

Alongkorn also reiterated the policy of Agriculture and Cooperatives Minister Chalermchai Sreeon regarding the establishment of an Agritech and Innovation Centre in all provinces and promoting a Sea Zero Waste campaign.

 

After the meeting, he met with the fish market entrepreneurs, fishermen’s representatives and the president of Ranong’s shrimp association to discuss the problems and ways of working together to develop the fishery potential of Ranong province. 

 

He later went to Khon Kaen province to look into the drought problem there.

No efficiency in Thailand-they can’t produce anything cheaper than other countries-that’s why the over tax imports and limit goods coming in-it won’t hold up long term

Maybe he should head down to Suvarnabhumi Airport instead where they’ve deployed water cannons that blast 144,000 litres of valuable water per day about 50 meters water into the sky. Maybe they could employ the same technology to fight the drought in Khon Kaen. ????
