Fish processing plant, Indonesia
Fish processing plant, Indonesia. Live grouper being processed at the Pulau Mas facility in Denpasar, Bali, Indonesia. These fish are destined for export to Hong Kong. The live reef fish trade is a highly lucrative business that is associated with several, highly destructive fishing methods, including the use of cyanide to stun and capture the fish alive. However, Pulau Mas uses more sustainable practices and the company supports the use of traditional handline fishing methods, refuses to trade in fish caught using cyanide, and enforces a minimum catch size

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the bustling scene at a fish processing plant in Indonesia. Located in Denpasar, Bali, the Pulau Mas facility is dedicated to ensuring sustainable practices in the live reef fish trade. In this image, we witness skilled workers carefully handling live groupers that are destined for export to Hong Kong. The live reef fish trade is notorious for its destructive fishing methods, such as using cyanide to stun and capture fish alive. However, Pulau Mas stands out by promoting more environmentally friendly approaches. The company strongly supports traditional handline fishing methods and refuses to engage in trading fish caught with cyanide. Additionally, they enforce a minimum catch size to protect marine biodiversity. Amidst crates filled with these magnificent creatures of the sea, it becomes evident that Pulau Mas prioritizes both responsible commerce and wildlife conservation. This snapshot showcases not only the industrious nature of human involvement but also highlights our ability to harmonize economic activities with environmental stewardship. As Southeast Asia's lucrative live reef fish market thrives on unsustainable practices elsewhere, this photograph serves as a reminder that there are companies like Pulau Mas striving towards sustainability and protecting our precious marine ecosystems. It offers us hope that through conscious efforts and responsible choices within industries like this one, we can preserve our natural world for future generations while still meeting global demands for seafood products.
