"We are expecting for the worst hanggat 'di pa natin matingnan talaga ang damage sa area," BFAR Calabarzon regional director Samuel Malvas told radio DZMM. The towns of Talisay and Agoncillo were the most affected, he added. Malvas appealed to vendors not to hike up fish prices following the calamity. At Kamuning Market in Quezon City, prices of tilapia and tawilis have gone up to P160 per kilo from P130 and P120, respectively. --With a report from Lyza Aquino, ABS-CBN News Share Facebook Share on Twitter LinkedIn DZMM, BFAR, Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources Read More: DZMM BFAR Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources
