'No reason to hike price of sardines'

FISHERFOLK'S group Pambansang Lakas ng Kilusang Mamamalakaya ng Pilipinas (Pamalakaya) on Tuesday accused big fishing firms of floating the short supply of tamban to justify the increase in the retail prices of canned sardines and to allow their vessels to enter the municipal waters.

The group maintained that there is no reason to increase the price of sardines.
