MEULABOH - Hundreds of fishermen in Samatiga Sub-district, West Aceh Regency have not been to sea for the past three days due to bad weather, in the form of strong winds and high waves in the waters of west and south of Aceh that reach four meters.
"We were forced not to go to sea because the weather conditions were very bad and safety was at risk," said Ikbal, a fisherman in Kuala Bubon, Samatiga District, West Aceh, as reported by ANTARA, Monday, July 4.
He said the impact of high sea waves also caused fishermen not to dare to move in the sea, because the wave height of up to four meters made it difficult for fishermen to find fish.
Because they can't do their activities, he said, this has an impact on the availability of fresh fish in the market.
