Fishermen Protest Public Hearing For Murbe Port Project

Fishermen Protest Public Hearing For Murbe Port Project

Imagine a new port is planned near where fishermen work.

Before building it, the government needs to study how it will affect the environment.

The fishermen say the study is not done correctly.

It doesn't mention important things like the impact on the fishing grounds and the nearby power plant.

They believe the report hides crucial information about mangroves and fishing areas.

They're worried the port could damage their livelihoods.

They want to postpone the hearing until a proper study is completed.
