Third, the planning for fu­ture improvements include completing the necessary infrastructure, maximizing the potential in coop­eration with the industry, promoting fishery products at important events, improving the competence of the students, participating in local and national level competitions, fostering entrepreneurial spirit by giving entrepreneurship training to the teachers and the students, and organizing industrial practices out­side of East Borneo.
