Meanwhile, Central Jakarta Assistant of Economy and Development, Bakwan Ferizan Ginting admitted the consumption rate of fish-based foods in Jakarta has only reached 48 percent per capita annually.

In fact, according to Bakwan, the ideal figure should be at least 62 percent per capita per year. This means that currently, school-age children in Jakarta are still not consuming enough fish.

"I invite residents who have children to process fish into processed products such as meatballs, so that children will increasingly enjoy consuming fish," he invited.
