Intoduction
Fisheries provides food security to the majority of the countries population in terms of protein and essential minerals and Vitamins as rice and fish constitute the stable diet of most Cambodians.
I. Inland Fisheries Inland fisheries are defined as all fishing
activities that take place in all water bodies that are not associated with the sea and contribute from 5 to 7% of Cambodia’s GDP.
I. Inland Fisheries The inland capture fishery is divide into 3 categories:
Large scale Fishing
Middle Scale
Fishing
Small Scale
Fishing
I. Inland Fisheries ∞Large Scale Fishing Lots are operated
under two years consessions gained via a public auction.
∞The DoF describes over 70 different techniques and gear ranging from the large scale such as barrage traps and bag nets(dai) to small hand operated gears and traps.
I. Inland Fisheries >>Middle Scale fisher cans now operate without
license and as a result the number of people involve in middle scale has increased.
>>More then 24 types of middle scale fishing gear are defined in the fisheries law.
◊◊The large scale fisheries and small scale fisheries combined 110,300 tonnes.
I. Inland FisheriesSmall scale fisheries or family scale fisheries
is not licensed and small sized fishing gear can be used through out the year and through out the fisheries domain except in fish sanctuaries.
Small scale fisheries or family scale fisheries have 140.000 tonnes.
II. Fisheries on ExportCambodian livelihoods affected by fish trade
and export.
Fresh fish products in Cambodia exported
widely to neighboring countries such as
Vietnam and Thailand, as well as Singapore,
China's Hong Kong, Japan and South Korea.
II. Fisheries on ExportThere are three things on export from
Cambodia, such as having licenses, imposing
taxes, and problems on exports.
II. Fisheries on ExportThe first thing is having licenses.
Any person or company must obtain an export
license. Because all fish product exports are
controlled by KAMFIMEX (Cambodia
Kampuchea Fishery Import and Export). All of
export traders or companies must have an
export license from MAFF.
II. Fisheries on ExportAll of distributors also must have an
export license. Each province has
distributors, but any person or company
cannot distribute on export. All of
distributors must obtain licenses from the
provincial authorities through an auction
system.
II. Fisheries on ExportThe second thing is imposing taxes.
Fish and fish products impose taxes by
transportation. If all fish products are
transported over long distances to reach export
gates, its taxes and expenses will impose high
prices on export.
II. Fisheries on ExportOn the contrary, if it is transported nearby
export gates, its taxes and expenses will
impose cheap prices on export. However, fish
products to transport nearby export gates are
rarely happened. Therefore, it causes some
problems on export.
II. Fisheries on ExportThe last thing is problems such as smuggling
and underreporting of catches.
High export expenses motivate smuggling. All
of fishermen, export traders or companies want
to make a lot of money on fish export, but
sometimes their fish products impose high
expenses. Therefore, they sell their fish
products illegally.
II. Fisheries on ExportOther one of big problem is underreporting of
catches. I mentioned in the front, they want to
earn money a lot on fish export. For that reason,
they report their fish products less than they
catch or have.
II. Fisheries on ExportTo sum up, fish export affects fisheries, and
fisheries affects livelihoods. This means fish
export is the most important in Cambodia.
In order to export well, it is good information
to know having licenses, imposing taxes, some
problems on fish export.
III. Community FisheriesCommnunity fisheries established is a
mechanism that
Can improve management of local fisheries and ensure local food security
Tonle Sap is one of the most biggest community fisheries in Cambodia.
III. Community Fisheries People who live in community fisheries like to do the
fish past(Prohoc) and export to the market.
III. Community FisheriesStung Treng is the other community
fisheries in Cambodia too.
People in that province depend on fisheries resources as main source of protein.
III. Community FisheriesLocal has requested to CEPA for assist them
to develop community fisheries on their villages and management of fisheries resource in the Stung Treng Provice.
III. Community Fisheries The most rarely fishes in Cambodia and affect to extinct.
IV Marine Fisheries Marine fisheries in Cambodia have
been slow to develop relative to inland fisheries.
Fishing activities can be classified into :
coastal fisheries
and commercial fisheries.
IV Marine FisheriesFishing production mean :
Largest scale use Dia system
Middle-scale use generally methods
and Smallest-scale use gill nets... EtcDemend
The Cambodian people have a strong preference for freshwater fish and the domestic demand for fish is expected to increase with population growth
IV Marine Fisheries
Marine Large Scale Fisheries
IV Marine FisheriesManagement
The Cambodia fishery law identifies a range of input controls to be used as main management tools:
Fishing permits for commercial fishing,
Licences for offshore boats,
Licences for foreign vessels fishing in Cambodian waters,
Prohibition of illegal fishing gears,
