Description

Description

The project would include provision of credit to fishermen to replace about 40 old wooden vessels with modern steel shrimp trawlers equipped with modern fishing gear; provision of technical assistance for design, procurement, and construction supervision of trawlers and for training to shrimp fishermen; and for a fishing port feasibility study. Both the Government and management of BNP have expressed their intention to ensure that individual vessel owners be given a first chance over the larger fishing companies to receive the funds of the proposed project and this policy is reflected in the Loan Agreement. In view of this policy, no specific measures to limit the granting of subloans according to size of fishing company are proposed as part of the project.
