INFANTA, Pangasinan — Lingayen-Dagupan Archbishop Socrates Villegas on Tuesday called on the government to stand firm in defending the rights of the country's small fishermen.

'Gobyerno ng Pilipinas, panindigan sana niyo ang pagtatanggol sa mga dukhang mangingisda (Government of the Philippines, stand firm in defending our small fishermen),' said Villegas in his homily during a concelebrated mass held at the coastal village of Cato here.
