Caraga fisherfolk regional director of the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic
Resources (BFAR) has already assumed office after he was installed on May 2,
2012, in time with the opening of the month-long Farmers’ and Fisherfolks’
month celebration.

programs that have been implemented by BFAR, as well as the output of the said
implementation.
Having seen the outcome of the program
implementation, the official is tasked to make recommendations to solve
whatever issues that needed to be addressed for the development of the said programs.
For his part, BFAR-Caraga regional director
Nerio Casil is also monitoring the program implementation of the bureau to
ensure that upon his resumption in June, the bureau can act with the problems
encountered by the fisherfolks communities that will coincide with the
recommendations of the fisherfolk director.
In an earlier report, Dir. Casil said the series
of activities have been planned for the entire month of May, which are expected
to benefit the marginal fisherfolks in the region.
Under the fisherfolks directorship program of
BFAR, specifically the provisions of the Department of Agriculture (DA) Special
Order No. 88 series of 2005, one fisherfolk is chosen to act as BFAR Director
at the national and regional levels respectively in the month of May as one of
the highlights of the month-long celebration.

Proclamation No.33 (s. 1989) by the late President Corazon C. Aquino.
The event recognizes the contributions to the
national economy of the farmers and fisher folks, which constitute half of the
