SEMPORNA: The monthly subsistence allowance to fishermen by the Government is a motivation for the group to continue working hard.Assistant Finance Minister Datuk Ramlee Marbahan called on fishermen to therefore use the allowance well and make contributions under the Fishermen Accident Insurance Scheme.

He said this at the presentation of subsistence allowance to 856 fishermen of Semporna Fishermen's Association, here.

Ramlee, who is Bugaya Assemblyman, said giving living allowance is the Government's initiative to help fishing communities in the country.

"I believe it (allowance) will be a catalyst to the fishermen to continue to work on developing the fishing industry and ensuring the country's food supply is adequate, in Sabah and Malaysia," he said.

He added that the Government always supported and will continue to enhance cooperation and commitment to develop the country's fishing industry so that it can have a positive impact on the country's development and for the people's prosperity.
