Fishers oppose Supreme Court's decision to remove 15-km municipal water limit

Members of various fisherfolk communities from Tondo gathered outside the Supreme Court in Manila on Friday, 10 January 2025, to condemn the court's decision declaring several provisions of Republic Act 8550, as amended by RA 10654, unconstitutional. Fisher group PANGISDA said the ruling threatens their lives and livelihoods by removing the 15-kilometer municipal water limit, which has long since guarded small-scale fishers from commercial fishing operations.
