Myliddy is a historically important fishery harbour.
This harbour was once the second largest in the country. Due to the situation that prevailed for the past 30 years, harbour activities have remained dormant. Problems such as conflicts over the sharing of land and marine resources among fishermen in this area have been observed. There has also been a situation where some of our fishermen have engaged in illegal fishing methods. Our government expects to bring all these issues under control and to take the harbour and the maritime sector in a balanced direction.
This port should be transformed into a progressive port. Nothing but love can satisfy the people affected by mental trauma.
It is the President’s expectation that whatever development is undertaken, whether land is released or roads are opened , the 30 years of bitter experience of the people should be alleviated.
Phase 3 of the project is now underway to transform this into a full-fledged port. This port is yours. You must protect it.
We are taking steps to remove the Indian boats that are causing us difficulties. More than 50,000 boats are engaged in fishing in our country. We need to develop the fishing industry through deep-sea fishing, and the government is ready to provide assistance for this.
