Danny Ahamad, 49, works on a wooden boat on Tuesday (21 March 2023). Boat-building is a skill among some residents of Port Holland, a barangay in Maluso in Basilan, that is passed from one generation to the next, and may date back to pre-Spanish colonization period. These days, fishing boats like this cost P700,000—labor for four months by three builders and the materials used. MindaNews photo (03/21/23) by JULES L. BENITEZ.
