The Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR) has assured consumers of enough fish supply for the Holy Week despite some food supply chain challenges, including the oil spill off Oriental Mindoro.

BFAR spokesperson Nazario Briguera attributed this to the reopening of fishing grounds in the country after periodic closures that allowed the reproduction of fish species.

"Dahil nasa peak season tayo ngayon ng fishing activity, we expect na kaya nating punan 'yung supply kahit tumaas ang demand sa Mahal na Araw [We are in the peak season of fishing activity, so we expect to meet the high demand for fish during Holy Week]," Briguera said. However, Briguera said there could be lower fish output in Oriental Mindoro and nearby provinces as the oil spill near Naujan town has yet to be contained.
