Kota Kinabalu: The Sabah Fisheries Department is working on short and long-term plans to boost fish catch in Teluk Marudu, where unpredictable weather conditions have led to fewer fish caught.
Assistant Agriculture, Fisheries, and Food Industry Minister Datuk Hendrus Anding said the department offers fuel subsidies to encourage fishermen to explore new areas with more fish.
Additionally, the department regulates fishing methods by issuing licences and monitoring fishermen's activities, he said at the State Legislative Assembly sitting, here, on Tuesday.
