Lawmaker-cum-urban planner Jose Chui Sai Peng said yesterday the government and the Macau Fishermen’s Mutual Help Association should expand their fishing-boat trips for tourists to Coloane.
Chui made the suggestion together with his fellow legislators Kou Hoi In and Cheang Chi Keong during yesterday’s plenary session of the legislature.
Since 2011 the government and the association have organised 90-minute trips during the annual fishing moratorium in the South China Sea, Chui pointed out. Currently, the trips starting in llha Verde sail past the Kun Iam Ecumenical Centre on an artificial isle in Zape before returning to their starting point.
