    Partnering with the devil

    • Borehead says:

      I doubt the Philippine fishermen will welcome the meddling of EDF. They should revolt, or decide up front who will remain standing. EDF is about eliminating fishermen.

    • Joel Hovanesian says:

      Take some advice from those who have had to deal with this scam of an organization. EDF reforms are the beginning of the end if you embrace their practices. DON”T DO IT!!
