Save our Seafood


Most of my relatives came from Terengganu, one of the beautiful state on the east coast of Peninsular Malaysia and most people from Terengganu, still consume turtle eggs.

You see, turtle is in fact an endangered species. Listed on WWF, yet people still consume them. Why? Personally i think its the people's mentality. It is something that has been taught since little. Like the saying you can't teach an old dog new tricks.

Well this post is dedicated to my cousins who i am proud to say, have changed the mindsets about turtle egg consumption. It was not an easy decision to do (to stop eating the things that you like) i agree, but i applaud those who would like to try.

And here is the lists of sustainable seafood species list that has been divided into three categories. Not being a hypocrite, i do consume some seafood listed on the second list like tiger prawn for example but i will try and avoid eating them in the future

to view the list, please click on the link below; http://www.saveourseafood.my/sustainableSeafood/sustainableSeafoodSpecies.html

if they can do it, why can't you?
