    According to a report by Vision Radio on October 19, 2021, fishermen in Bor City, Jongkolai State, South Sudan condemned the lack of fish storage facilities in the area
    .
    It is said that the fish produced there account for the largest proportion of the national fish production in South Sudan
    .
     
    Fishing is the second source of livelihood for residents along the Nile River
    .
    However, some fishermen said that they lacked refrigerators and stable electricity to store fish at the right temperature to prevent those fish from dying
    .

     
    Some fishermen said that they still lack a modern market for selling fish.
    “We need refrigerators, and refrigerators need electricity, but in Qiongge Laizhou, there is a shortage of electricity and there is no place to store fish
    .

     
    The fishermen said that for the country's economic development and food security, the fishery sector has great potential for development
    .
    According to the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), at least 1.
    7 million South Sudanese live on fisheries, but the country’s fisheries still lack the ability to make full use of resources to achieve their economic benefits
    .
    Experts believe that other waters outside the Nile River also provide attractive opportunities for fish farming in the country
    .
     
    Tilapia, Nile perch, catfish and other fishes have been found in the waters of South Sudan and the swamps of the Sude region
