AI Summary

Shellfish in Port Dickson waters remain unsafe to eat due to high biotoxin levels. Tests conducted by the Kuala Lumpur Fisheries Biosecurity Centre found biotoxin readings above the safe limit of 800 parts per billion. The ban on harvesting and consuming shellfish remains in effect. Weekly monitoring will continue until biotoxin levels decrease. The Negeri Sembilan Fisheries Department advises the public to avoid collecting shellfish from the affected waters.
