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.

REDUCE DIRECT AND INDIRECT CAUSES OF MARINE TURTLE MORTALITY 1.1 Introduction to marine turtle populations and habitats, challenges and conservation efforts. [INF] Cambodia coast line had extended of 435 Km from Thai border in the North to Viet Nam border in the South and it known as diversified coastal ecosystem. In the past, sea turtles were seen in many places in Cambodia sea water. Kampot province is one of four provinces/municipalities where sea turtles had often seen in seagrass meadow. However, population of sea turtles in Cambodia were rapidly declined for last few decades due to unregulated management schemes. Coastal development such as infrastructure, tourist place, petroleum construction etc. caused to destructive habitat of sea turtle. On the other hand, push net, trawlers could effectively capture sea turtles. Furthermore, unrecognized value of sea turtles by local people leaded to put more pressure to decrease population of these species because they can capture whatever they can and they can eat whatever they want....etc.

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.
