The East Kalimantan Provincial Marine and Fisheries Department (DKP) has unveiled three key strategies to enhance the value-added processing of local fisheries products. These initiatives are designed to significantly increase export potential and strengthen the regional economy. Details of the strategies were presented in Samarinda, focusing on downstream processing to move beyond raw material exports. The DKP believes these measures will improve the competitiveness of East Kalimantan’s fisheries sector in the global market. Further information regarding the specific strategies and implementation timelines is expected to be released shortly. This move aligns with national efforts to promote greater domestic processing of natural resources. The department anticipates a positive impact on local businesses and employment within the fisheries industry.
