By conducting a preparative research towards a comprehensive and extensive Environmental and Social Impact Assessment of a planned tourism development project within a proposed Marine Protected Area, the presented study provides evidence of a particularly distinct dilemma of exploitation versus conservation. By applying methods of qualitative data collection in combination with the review of documents, the researcher identified potential environmental and social impacts related to the planned development. A lack of communication between the stakeholders was found to be the main reason for the estimated unwanted consequences, presumably resulting in major implementation setbacks of both development and conservation project. The researcher found that a revision of the development plan and the conservation plan under the consideration of the study’s findings could lead to future mutual conservation-development benefits as well as to an improvement of the local population’s livelihood-situation. Furthermore, the study identified the tool of Environmental and Social Impact Assessment as a suitable instrument of linking the conservationists’ and the developers’ interests. Foreword Benefitting from the position of being born and raised in the comfort and safety of a developed country, I had the possibility to enter higher education and pursue my personal interest in the field of environmental related studies. Growing up and having access to all necessary information needed to take a look at the bigger picture, I had the chance to consider further subjects beyond my country’s borders. This widened my field of local related topics to international and complex issues, affecting environment and populations of other countries, especially of those countries on whose shoulders the life in comfort and security I grew up with in my developed home country is often pressing on. Throughout my study career and repeated involvements in environmental projects in Cambodia and its neighbour countries, I developed a strong interest for the country’s culture, history and environment. Inevitably, I found myself relatively quickly confronted with the numerous problems and conflicts that Cambodia is facing in its rush to catch up with its dynamic Southeast Asian neighbourhood and its effort to raise from one of the poorest countries in the world to a stable and internationally respected economic power. The most prevailing issue that I observed throughout the time in Cambodia is the conflict between ideas of resource use, involving a number of trade-offs explained in this study. I have seen different cases in which long-term efforts, work and commitment went completely in vain, resulting in failed and abandoned projects caused by the uncertainty of exploitation or conservation. Depending on the situation, it seems for the most part to be an unintentional disinformation of stakeholder and decision-maker regarding the full range of impacts and consequences of a proposed action, which leads to unnecessary waste of committed effort on both sides, the exploiter and the conservationist.

Project Rationale Cambodia's waters support a rich and abundant marine life including coral reefs, seagrass meadows, extensive mangrove forests and threatened species. Years of political turmoil and economic instability have resulted in a lack of financial and human resources within research and government institutions to implement effective conservation measures. In the face of major threats including overfishing and poorly planned coastal development, the need to protect Cambodia’s waters and the local communities who rely on them has never been so high.

Box 582, Phnom Penh, CAMBODIA Email: [email protected]. kh ABSTRACT Two species of sea turtle, hawksbill and green turtle, are common in Cambodia. These two species can be seen and caught accidentally by fishermen who use stingray hooks and line. In Kep municipality 100 - 120 turtles are caught per year. Green turtles can be seen in Kampot province, in the eastern part of Koh Karang of Kep municipality and Koh Krass of Koh Kong province; hawksbill turtle occurs in Kampot province, west of Koh Angkrang, south of Koh Karang in Kep municipality, and in Koh Kong province. Moreover, both hawksbill and green turtles ca n be found in Sihanoukville. Sea turtles come to the beach to lay their eggs from September to April. Hawksbill turtles are seen to migrate to the beach of Koh Ses in the middle of September to lay its eggs. Recently, some nesting beaches of turtles have been identified by gathering information from interviewing the coastal fishermen. INTRODUCTION on the cooperative research and conservation in the Recent studies have indicated that Cambodia have future, (iv} to increase the knowledge on biology, five species of sea turtles, namely loggerhead turtle taxonomy, survey techniques and conservation of sea Caretta caretta, olive ridley turtle Lepidochelys olivacea, turtles and (v} to collect and update all information green turtle Chelonia mydas, hawksbill turtle Eretmochelys related to sea turtle populations, distribution, conservation imbricata and leatherback turtle Dermochelys coriacea.
