Africa-Press – Cape verde. The Minister of the Sea said the Government wants to transform the fishing sector, changing mentalities and practices, being committed to offering a set of training and financing, but outside the logic of “subsidy or dependence” of the sector.
Abraão Vicente, who spoke to the press after his first visit to the island, while responsible for the Sea portfolio, assured that the Executive intends to “increase” the sector “resilience” capacity, making the main actors, who work individually, understand the great economic “added value” of the sector.
“It is important to engage the populations because we will break with the idea that we are the Ministry which offers boats and engines,” said the same source, for those who continue in this “perspective” do not “get” anywhere.
The governor added the need to focus on freezing fish in the “medium/long term” and other conservation techniques, including drying and placing it on the markets of other islands.
