The study shows the dynamic growth and subsequent problems of
fisheries were likely to be the results of development program
implemented at the fisheries. The current policies still create
conditions for fisheries to expand. Nevertheless, fishery resources
tend to limits to support such expansion.
Fisheries management has two main characteristics: (1) they mostly
focus on the technical approach and (2) adopt coercive strategies. In
other words, the fisheries management currently focuses only on the
fisheries issues, such as the regulation of input and output sites.
With the current decline of fishery resources, fisheries development
need to shift its orientation from mainly promoting exploitation of the
resources for the worldwide market to resources conservation and
protection of fishers’ livelihood.
