Secondly, while we do appreciate that the fishermen have not understood or appreciated the borders, you know that under the East African Community Treaty and Protocol, Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Rwanda and Burundi are destined to collapse their borders by 2013. That means that the issue of who is fishing in whose waters will not arise. In the meantime, the EAC has the Lake Victoria Commission that is working out ways and means of harmonising the exploitation of the resources of the lake, which will include allowing fishermen from either country to fish in the waters, provided the rate at which they fish, the quantity of the fish they take and the ages and sizes of the fish are properly regulated, so that we do not have over-fishing and over-exploitation of the resource that is so valuable to this region."
