00:00Let's talk about the price of some fish in the market after the typhoon hit.
00:05Live from Pasay Public Market, first news is from Bea Pinlac. Bea.
00:15Igan, despite not being able to recover from the next typhoon,
00:19some fish sellers here in Pasay Public Market are worried that the price of fish might rise again
00:27due to the possible effects of the typhoon Marseille.
00:34Ding's fish market is from Batangas.
00:37They say the price of fish rose after the typhoon Christine and Leon.
00:41And now that there's a new typhoon, he's afraid...
00:45It's going to rise again. If the typhoon rises, we're going to go broke.
00:50Other people, if you give them a higher price, they won't accept it.
00:54It's not yet time.
00:56That's also the concern of some other fish sellers in Pasay Public Market,
01:00especially if the supply of fish might be affected.
01:03It's going to rise again because of the typhoon.
01:06And it's already peak season.
01:08After the typhoon, it might rain again.
01:11It's going to affect the supply again.
01:14In some stalls that we visited, the price of fish is around Php 130 to Php 190 per kilo.
01:21Php 200 to Php 300 per kilo of galunggong.
01:25For tilapia, it's Php 120 to Php 150.
01:30And Php 550 per kilo of lapu-lapu.
01:34The high price of fish hurts the pockets of the fish sellers.
01:38Rosalyn also said that there's a high price for grilling.
01:41We're also worried because when the price rises,
01:44it's hard for us to give a price to the customers.
01:47Because sometimes, the customers are more forgiving.
01:51The customers are used to the price that we're giving.
01:56But when the price rises, they will also be surprised.
01:59We're short of income. We're more on abuno.
02:02Some of the fish sellers said that the price of fish will be reduced.
02:07I can still afford it.
02:09But I can only buy half a kilo of fish.
02:13We're just trying to save money.
02:17Because we're short of budget.
02:22Igan, because of the typhoon,
02:27according to our conversations,
02:29they can't do anything but endure the high price of fish.
02:33But they hope that time will heal
02:36so that they can get back their livelihood.
02:39That's the first news from Pasay.
02:42Bea Pinlac for GMA Integrated News.
