    397 Republic of Korea Seng-Keh Teng Coastal Management Center, Philippines March 2004 INTRODUCTION This review constitutes part of the FAO’s project on the state of the world marine capture fisheries management relating to marine capture fisheries management of the Republic of Korea (ROK). Overall goal of the review is to provide information useful to decision makers, fishery managers and stakeholders who may involve in the management of marine capture fisheries of the country. The ROK is located in the southern half of the Korean Peninsula and borders the East Sea (Sea of Japan) on the east and the Yellow Sea on the west. It has a land area of approximately 98 480 square kilometres with a highly indented coastline of 2 413 kilometres (CIA, 2003). The country has a border line of 238 kilometres with North Korea on the north and there are around 3 579 islands lying mostly along its south and west coasts. Korea has made a number of maritime claims and the most significant of them include: • Contiguous zone: 24 nautical miles; • Exclusive economic zone: 200 nautical miles; and • Territorial sea: 12 nautical miles; between 3 nautical miles and 12 nautical miles in the Korea Strait. In July 2002, ROK had an estimated population of 48.324 million with a population density of 490 persons per square kilometre (CIA, 2003). Gross National income per capita was around US$8 910 in 2000 (OECD, 2002; World Bank, 2003). The ROK is also one of the world’s major fishing countries in both production and trade, the tenth largest harvester as well as exporter in 1999.

My key question is whether and how the Economic Cooperation Framework Agreement (ECFA)—a bilateral free trade agreement signed by Taiwan and China in 2010—affects Taiwanese fish farmers. In this agreement, China made concessions by eliminating tariffs on the enlisted Taiwanese seafood products, focusing primarily on grouper (Ephinephelus ) and milkfish ( Chanos chanos ).

  • Illegal Fishing and Human Rights Abuses in the Taiwanese Fishing Fleet
    Illegal fishing and human rights abuses in the Taiwanese fishing fleet | July 2020 | The Environmental Justice Foundation (EJF) is a UK-based non-profit organisation working internationally to protect the environment and defend human rights. Over recent years, this has included investigations into the related problems of human trafficking and illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing in Taiwan’s substantial distant water fishing (DWF) fleet. This confidential briefing provides background on the Taiwanese fleet, sets out structural issues with its management, details eight particularly serious case studies and provides an overview of 54 others. It concludes with detailed recommendations to the Taiwanese government. 1 Executive Summary Since 2016, EJF has investigated the activities of the Taiwanese fishing fleet - one of the world’s largest distant water fleets. It is made up of over 1,140 vessels flying the Taiwanese flag1 and more than 250 additional foreign-flagged vessels that are owned or funded by Taiwanese nationals.2 Despite some encouraging legal reforms, EJF’s recent investigations have found that widespread human rights abuses and IUU fishing are still widely reported. Since 2018, former crew members interviewed by EJF have made allegations relating to 75 vessels linked to Taiwan. 13 of these, including the infamous Fuh Sheng No. 11 case, have already been reported to the Taiwanese government. This briefing sets out allegations from crew relating to a further 62 vessels. Of these, crew from 31 vessels (50%) reported illegal shark finning. Crew from 14 vessels reported that their vessels intentionally killed or illegally possessed protected marine mammals, including seven vessels (11%) that killed false killer whales and eight vessels (14%) that caught dolphins to either use as bait to catch sharks or to sell.

  • Distant Water) Fisheries in Southeast Asia, 1936 – 1977
    Taiwanese Offshore (Distant Water) Fisheries in Southeast Asia, 1936 – 1977 Chen, Ta-Yuan [陳大元] (BA, MA) This thesis is presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of Murdoch University 2007 I declare that this thesis is my own account of my research and contains as its main content work which has not previously been submitted for a degree at any tertiary educational institution. Chen, Ta-Yuan [陳大元] Copyright © 2007 by Chen, Ta-Yuan [陳大元], all rights reserved. i Abstract The Japanese colonial fisheries authorities of pre-war Taiwan played an important role in the diffusion of offshore and distant water fishing methods. Two of the main fisheries in post-war Taiwan, the longline and trawl fisheries, were introduced from Japan during the pre-war period. Although Taiwan’s fishing industry was devastated in the course of World War Two, with financial aid from the international community and the government’s policy guidance, it was revived in a comparatively brief period of time. Fishing vessels from Taiwan, especially Kaohsiung, soon became, once again, a common sight in the waters of Southeast Asia. The first part of thesis traces the pre-war historical background, the government’s post-war policy guidance and the birth of Taiwan’s offshore and distant water fishing industry in Southeast Asia after World War Two. After the Chinese communists came to power in 1949 Taiwan’s fishing communities were placed under the strict surveillance of the Kuomintang authorities out of consideration for national security. The Taiwanese Government and the military adopted a variety of measures to control and regulate the development of the fishing communities.

  • National Report of Taiwan Fisheries Agency, Council of Agriculture
    ISC/09/Plenary/09 9th Meeting of the ISC Kaohsiung, Taiwan July 15-20, 2009 9th Meeting of the International Scientific Committee for Tuna and Tuna-Like Species in the North Pacific Ocean National Report of Taiwan Fisheries Agency, Council of Agriculture Taipei, Taiwan July 2009 Prepared for the Ninth Meeting of the International Scientific committee on Tuna and Tuna-like Species in the North Pacific Ocean (ISC), 15- 20 July, 2009, Kaohsiung, Taiwan. Document should not be cited without permission of the authors. Taiwanese Tuna and Tuna-like Fisheries in the North Pacific Ocean Fisheries Agency, Council of Agriculture, Taipei, Taiwan ABSTRACT Large-scale tuna longline (LTLL, previous named DWLL,≧100GT) and small-scale tuna longline (STLL, previous named OSLL,＜100GT) vessels are two major Taiwan tuna fleets operating in the North Pacific Ocean. The number of active LTLL vessels operating in the Pacific Ocean in 2006 was 104, but the number of active vessels in 2007 was 90 and 2008 reduced to 84 respectively. The albacore catches of LTLL in the North Pacific was 3,848 tons in 2006, 2,465 tons in 2007, and 2,490 tons in 2008. The annual catches of swordfish were once more than 1,000 tons in 2001 to 2003 for the development of tropical tuna fishing fleet, but after then the annual catches declined to the level of 350-400 tons in 2006 to 2008 for the decrease of fishing efforts. For STLL fishery, the catches of albacore were 350-450 tons during 2006-2008. The catches of bluefin tuna fluctuated at the level of 950-1400 tons during 2006-2008.
