The Soft Launch to Tunku Abdul Rahman Marine Park & Kota Kinabalu Plastic Neutral and Fish-Bomb-Free Initiative at the Sustainable Action Conference held in November 2023.

An initiative called "Fish Bomb-Free Sabah" will see the two non-governmental organisations – Blu Hope and Stop Fish Bombing Malaysia – collaborating with state Agriculture, Fisheries and Food Industry Ministry (Maffi) in efforts to conserve marine ecosystems in Sabah.

One blast can irreversibly destroy precious parts of her – the foundational coral reef itself, that are critically important economic contributors to the State.

A recent meeting between Chief Minister Datuk Seri Hajiji Haji Noor and European Union (EU) Ambassador to Malaysia, Michalis Rochas, included a status update from SFB Malaysia.

As part of World Ocean Day and Week 2021, Asia Dive Expo hosted a webinar with the topic of the Coral Triangle as the centerpiece.

Non-governmental organisations (NGOs) assisting anti-fish bombing efforts in Sabah need continuous funding and participation from local communities to abolish the practice.

Stop Fish Bombing Malaysia (SFB) is hoping to get more financial support to enhance surveillance in Sabah waters.
