KALIBO, Aklan- The Provincial Fisheries and Agriculture Council (PAFC) has officially endorsed for in-depth study and evaluation the conceptual framework for the Aklan River Island Seventeen (ARIS) proposed multi-million resort in Sigcay, Banga Aklan.

In a copy of Resolution No. 24-2002 signed by Vicmae Lardaus, PAFC Coordinator, and Arnulfo Magcope, PAFC-Aklan Chairman, it forwarded a copy to the Department of Agriculture-Western Visayas in Iloilo City.
