Toward Fisheries Refugia in Indonesia Coastal Water
Get PDFThis report is under the SEAFDEC/UNEP/GEF Project on “Establishment and Operation of a Regional System of Fisheries Refugia in the South China Sea and Gulf of Thailand”Fisheries Refugia is a new approach to fisheries management that integrates habitat and resource management, focusing on protecting critical life stages for sustainable use. This concept enriches fisheries management and supports biodiversity conservation with a different approach from MPAs that have been developed so far. The implementation of the fisheries refugia project in two priority sites starting in 2019 has provided valuable lessons-learned and experience in establishing refugia in Indonesia. The project provides a mechanism to build an integrated management system between habitat and fish resources by involving various stakeholders including local community participation. The results of the Refugia project in Indonesia strengthen fisheries and environmental management to achieve ecological and economic balance in the utilization of fisheries resources. For the effective replication of establishment refugia in Indonesia, there are several main factors that should be highlighted which cover ecology, economy, social and government aspects. The experience of the fisheries refugia project is significant to the GEF IW project and transboundary resource management. This experience represents the GEF IW project in establishing a management system that integrates the environment and fisheries, focusing on the critical life cycle of fishery resources in Indonesia.UNEP/GE

Handover of Academic Draft Fisheries Refugia of Squid (Uroteuthis (L) Chinensis) In Bangka Sea to Regional Government ff Bangka Belitung Province
Get PDFThis report is under the SEAFDEC/UNEP/GEF Project on “Establishment and Operation of a Regional System of Fisheries Refugia in the South China Sea and Gulf of Thailand”Academic Draft Fisheries Refugia of Squid (Uroteuthis (L) Chinensis) in Bangka Sea, Bangka Belitung Province is a scientific study document as material for drafting government regulations, and it’s expected to be one of the solutions to overcome problems related to squid fisheries management. The Academic Draft was submitted to the Regional Government of the Bangka Belitung Islands Province as the policy maker at the regional level to be adopted into a regional regulation. The handover was held by the Research Institute for Fish Resource Enhancement on Wednesday, December 7th, 2022, at the Swiss-Belhotel, Pangkal Pinang City, Bangka Belitung Province.UNEP/GE
Fisheries Refugia Management Plan for Mud Spiny Lobster on the East Coast of Johor
Get PDFThis report is under the SEAFDEC/UNEP/GEF Project on “Establishment and Operation of a Regional System of Fisheries Refugia in the South China Sea and Gulf of Thailand”The Department of Fisheries Malaysia (DOFM) endorsed the concept of fisheries refugia as one of its efforts to sustain the lobster fisheries, particularly the protection of the lobster stock on the east coast of Johor. The fisheries refugia are a complementary effort to the present management framework that filled gaps, particularly for the mud spiny lobster. Nonetheless, fisheries refugia are not a replica of a marine protected area (MPA). The fisheries refugia emphasize long-term viability of the fishing industry, specifically resource sustainability. Hence, the vision of the fisheries refugia is to develop sustainable lobster fisheries on the east coast of Johor via its mission of implementing good practices as outlined in the fisheries refugia plan. In the context of conserving the mud spiny lobster stock on the east coast of Johor, over-fishing is the primary threat. The fisheries refugia will not achieve its goals if the lobster refugium is limited to the surrounding area of Tanjung Leman. After considering critical habitats for lobster, the sea current circulation pattern, species distribution, and the present fisheries activities in the area, the boundary of the fisheries refugium was re-delineated to cover the coastal water on the east coast of Johor. In addition, an area of 1,717 km2, located southward of Pulau Aur, was identified as the sensitive area for spawning within the lobster refugium. The fisheries refugia plan highlighted eight strategies to sustain the lobster fisheries in the designated refugium.UNEP/GE

Report of onsite training fish handling onboard fishing vessels
Get PDFThis report is a part of onsite training on fish handling onboard fishing vessels for fishers, fishery officers, key stakeholders, and students that conducted 1-day training on 8 July 2022 at 09:00–15:00 hrs. at the Prince of Songkhla University, Pattani Campus Thailand. The onsite training on fish handling onboard fishing vessels was granted by the Japanese Trust Fund 6, Phase II in the year 2022.
The onsite training of fish handling onboard fishing vessels aims to provide technical knowledge on fish handling techniques applicable to various fishing operations for the Thai fishing fleet through the training program, participants understood the importance of hygiene, cleanliness, and important key factors contributing to the reduction of post-harvest losses onboard. The subjects of the training program include a literature review and discussion of good practices for fish handling techniques onboard, fish storage, and ways to improve fresh quality at landing sites using simple techniques applied to various fisheries in Thailand. The appropriate and applicable methods for reducing post-harvest loss of coastal and offshore fishing vessels are vital in maintaining the catch's freshness, thereby minimizing post-harvest losses. Such methods include icing, ice seawater, and a refrigeration system onboard.
To cultivate an understanding of participants on fish handling tools, facilities, the current situation, and the problem of fish handling in Thailand, through literature reviews, presentations, and discussions provided in the training program, participants also can be learned and carried out their experience during this training program.
There were 2 sessions at the onsite training: (1) Technical information and knowledge for onboard fish handling and (2) Discussion/evaluation. This report summarize
