Long queues form at wet markets following Jurong Fishery Port's closure

SINGAPORE - The closure of Jurong Fishery Port has affected fish suppliers and market stalls, and also caused a bit of anxiety among shoppers, who were seen snapping up fish in wet markets on Saturday (July 17).

Fish suppliers took to social media to announce they would not be taking any new orders, while market stalls selling fish sold out early for the day.

A teacher in her 40s, who wanted to be known only as Catherine, was among the early birds who managed to get some fish before the stalls closed.

She said: "I was a little concerned when I heard about the situation. Since I live near Clementi wet market, I come here to buy fish at least once a week, not only for myself but also for my family. I plan to purchase a little more today, perhaps twice the usual amount I buy."

The two-week closure of Jurong Fishery Port from Saturday to July 31 is meant to help break the chain of Covid-19 transmission and enable deep cleaning after a cluster emerged there.

Can consider frozen fish. 
Someone from FB Donki group shared abt baking Saba fish with toaster. I tried and it turned out quite ok, compared to frying with oil pan that causes fishy smell in the whole house.

To be honest, better to buy rear sea fish than sea fish.
Sea fish eat those plastics and in return we eat the fish.
