Minister of Higher Education Dr. Ibrahim Hassan has stated that modern education and training are needed for sustainable fisheries.

The Minister said this in a tweet made on the occasion of Fishermen's Day.

Dr. Hassan tweeted that sustainable fishing cannot be done today unless we get modern education and training in fisheries instead of becoming a "drumstick tree captain". And that if this path is not progressed in, Maldives' seas cannot be protected.

December 10 is celebrated as Fishermen's Day in Maldives.

This year's Fishermen's Day's official celebration activities are being held in GDh. Faresmaathodaa.
