Panay and Guimaras islands in Western Visayas and Negros Occidental in the Negros Island Region produce nearly 60% of the country’s blue swimming crab supply, making the regions the backbone of the Philippines’ crab export industry, says Director Remia Aparri of the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources – Region 6. Blue swimming crabs are marine crabs with bluish coloration (commonly seen in males). They are a prized seafood commodity because of their sweet, delicate meat, high meat yield and strong demand from processors, restaurants and overseas buyers, particularly for pasteurized canned crab meat.

Members of the Kahublagan Kontra Korapsyon display placards giving the Marcos Jr. administration a “failed” mark during a press conference. “While the administration boasts of economic growth and investment figures, millions of Filipinos continue to struggle with soaring prices, stagnant incomes, heavy taxes, and worsening inequality. The true State of the Nation is not measured by glowing statistics or polished speeches, but by the daily hardships endured by ordinary Filipinos,” the group adds.
