Fish vendors smiling again

THE FISH ARE all gone – sold out.
It was a different story at the Bridgetown Fisheries Complex yesterday from the one carried in last Thursday’s DAILY NATION.
Boat owner and fish vendor, Donna Phillips, said all the fish which had been kept on ice had been sold – not just hers but everybody else’s.
“When people saw the papers, people came with bags and buckets – in here was ‘ram’. By the next day, there was no fish left; it was clean, all the containers were empty. I want to thank the NATION for the good work they did,” she said.
In the previous story, Phillips complained it was taking more than three days to clear a boatload of fish, forcing her to keep more than 200 000 flying fish on ice. (CA)
