These photos on Saturday, March 18, 2023, show empty stalls along the national highway going to Baco town in Barangay Sta. Isabel despite clarification by the Office of Calapan City Mayor Malou Morillo that there is no ban in the selling of fish. People have shied away from buying fish amid reports that oil slick from a sunken tanker in a nearby town in Oriental Mindoro has reached Calapan City. On normal days, the area is teeming with patrons that sometimes causes traffic. Fishing and swimming are only banned in the three adjacent villages of Navotas, Maidlang and Silonay that had been monitored with traces of the oil slick. PHOTOS BY IRE JOE V.C.
