The first prize winner will receive P7,000 and a certificate of recognition.
"Kathang Karagatan," on the other hand, is the title of the painting contest on the conservation of the country's aquatic resources. Bonafide college students are also welcome to join this contest.
The participants may use any of the following media: watercolor, oil acrylic, poster color, pastel or craypas. The canvas to be used should be 18" X 26".
The art works should exude this year's Fish Conservation theme "Pangisdaan ay Kayamanan, dapat Pangalagaan." Cash award of P15,000 and a trophy await the first prize winner.
