00:17Ivan, despite the high demand for bangus,
00:20the bangus growers are convinced that the supply of bangus is enough until the new year.
00:26Ms. Linquez Mundo early bought bangus for sale in Magsaysay Fish Market in Dagupan City.
00:35She bought a small amount of bangus.
00:37The price is high now, especially the big size of bangus.
00:41It was better before, ma'am, compared to now.
00:44But now?
00:45Now, the price of bangus is low. It's more expensive.

00:54Now, it's P190.

00:58P170.
00:59P170?
01:00Yes, it increased by P20.
01:02The demand has increased now, so the price of bangus has also increased.

01:11But it will not exceed P230 per kilo.
01:16There is no problem with the supply of bangus until the next few days,
