Many villages and towns on the west coast of Sumatra, like Meulaboh, depend on fishing. However, many residents of these fishing communities died in the tsunami. Despite their traumatic experiences, most fishermen want to continue the work they know best - fishing. Following the tsunami, the number of fish sellers at Meulaboh's market fell to one-third of what it used to be. Little by little, the marketplace is recovering and becoming livelier. The new well built by NCA/CWS makes the work of fishermen easier, because now fish can be treated in a more hygienic way. |
