BIAK NUMFOR – The Papua Provincial Government continues to support efforts to increase fishermen's productivity through the provision of capture fisheries facilities. This support was realized through the handover of fish aggregating device equipment to the Mnuswor Village Fishermen's Group in North Biak District, Biak Numfor Regency.
The assistance was handed over by Papua Deputy Governor Aryoko A.F. Rumaropen through the Papua Provincial Marine and Fisheries Office during a working visit to Biak Numfor on Saturday (June 13, 2026).
The assistance consisted of three rolls of fish aggregating device rope measuring 1,200 meters in length and seven weights to support local fishermen's fishing activities.
According to Aryoko, the marine and fisheries sector plays an important role in supporting the economy of coastal communities and therefore requires attention through various empowerment programs.
"The Papua Provincial Government will continue to be present in supporting fishermen by providing facilities and infrastructure that can help increase catches and improve community welfare," he said.
In addition to providing facilities, the government will also promote mentoring and guidance for fishermen's groups so that the assistance can be used optimally and sustainably.
The Papua Provincial Government hopes that this support will strengthen capture fisheries activities while increasing the income of coastal communities in Biak Numfor Regency. ***
