MANILA, Philippines — Bicol Saro Party-list Rep. Brian Raymund Yamsuan has urged the Senate to expedite the approval of its counterpart measure aimed at revitalizing the country's salt

“However, we can only achieve this goal if we have substantial funding to assist our salt farmers in accessing the technology and equipment necessary to boost production. That is why we are urging the Senate to swiftly act on its counterpart measure for the revival of our salt industry once Congress resumes its session next month,” Yamsuan said.

The bill has been included among the priority measures of President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. by the Legislative Executive Development Advisory Council . “As an archipelagic country, we have an extensive coastline that can be utilized for salt production. Unfortunately, instead of harnessing this natural advantage for the development of the salt industry, our salt production has significantly declined, and we have been importing 93 percent of our salt requirements in recent years,” Yamsuan said.

HB 8278 establishes the Philippine Salt Industry Development Council , which is responsible for formulating the Philippine Salt Industry Development Roadmap.The roadmap outlines short-term, medium-term, and long-term development plans to accelerate the modernization and industrialization of the salt industry.
