If they are capable, they build their own kelong and do something with their Bumi status. Farm your own fish, what's there to catch?

[@tankman20064]

it call lazy to farm the fish. only go around take from nature till all gone.

[@hydroschua5018]

Consider replacing the causeway with an elevated bridge to allow expanded waterway for fishing. The Tekong land reclamation is also partly the reason for impacting water quality.

Why govt don’t want crooked bridge?

@@BeachBoi1000 yeah, crooked bridge by Dr. M is brilliant, why dont want it ?

[@MrBoliao98]

Pls lor, before you comment about Tekong, you go see their downtown JB how much land is reclaimed. The idiocy of it all, Malaysia so much land, they reclaim such a narrow strip to make the water more sick.

Delusional. Fix your country first before talking big. Your country is increasingly irrelevant.

The ending of an age for the Orang Seletar, and the beginning of another. Unfortunately, by force. For sake of sea life presently, please stop fishing a depleted population. The rebound will be hard for them, too.
