This study aims to determine the level of compliance of fishing vessels operations to Malaysian Fisheries Department rules and regulations as well as to identify the reasons of non-compliance among fishermen in Pangkor Island, Perak. The data was collected through the distribution of questionnaire and analysed using descriptive statistical tools. The level of compliance of fishing vessel operations was determined by a five point Likert scale, whilst qualitative statements were grouped into several topics using qualitative content analysis. The reasons for the fishermen’s non-compliance were also identified by using closed-ended and open-ended questions. The outcome of this study can be categorised into several levels of compliance. As for the reasons for non-compliance, the most frequent reason chosen by respondents was lack of trust towards the authorities.

This study aims to analyze the poverty problems of traditional fishermen at Nelayan Village Tungkal Ilir District, Tanjung Jabung Barat Regency. And analyze the condition of coastal settlements of traditional fishing communities at Nelayan Village Tungkal Ilir District, Tanjung Jabung Barat Regency. The poverty that occurs in traditional fishermen at Nelayan Village is caused by 3 (three) most influential factors. There are; 1) quality factor of human resources, 2) economic factor, and 3) institutional factor. The spread pattern of settlements of traditional fishing communities at Nelayan Village takes place naturally, spontaneously and tend to be sporadic. This fishing community settlement tends to be dense

Belford is a small (about 1.32 square miles), relatively isolated, fishing community. It is nestled between Port Monmouth and Leonardo on Route 36 in the Bayshore area of Middletown, New Jersey. It sits across the bay from New York City such that the view from the fishing port is of New York City and the Earle Naval Pier. Belford is a mix of houses and small businesses, although the primary economic focus is the Belford Seafood Cooperative and the beach/fishing access areas. Ethnographic data was collected for the Belford commercial fishing port as part of a larger effort to provide information that can be used to assess the impacts of changes in the regulatory environment on fisheries and fishing communities. The profile of Belford the follows contributes to other work done on the likely social impacts of alternative regulatory actions, as well as developing scientifically defensible criteria for determining fishery dependency. This research also contributes to our understanding of the role of gentrification on traditional fishing communities, particularly the stress gentrification puts on traditional behaviors.

Utilization of radar satellite data to monitoring vessels distribution in regard to combating IUU fishing is a newly developed in Indonesia. Ship detection using radar satellite data performed with high accuracy which is about 79% to the size of the boats between 24-81 meters (averaging 45 meters).  However, information about accuracy of the radar satellites to detect small traditional fishing vessel are not yet widely available, and making this study is very important to conducted.    The research was conducted at the west part of Belitung Island waters using RADARSAT-2 satellite data to detect vessels distribution which was acquired by radar ground station Perancak at October 25, 2016 and also using vessel position data which is acquired by using GPS tracker.  There are 10 traditional fishing vessel was used as a sample, in accordance with the availability of GPS tracker.  All vessels are made from wood with the size between 11 to 15 meter and using ‘bubu’ as a primary fishing gear to catch fish.  Accuracy test was done using overlay analysis between vessel distribution information resulted from radar image analysis with the vessel position data coming from the GPS Tracker.  Result showed that the accuracy of radar data on extended high incidence beam mode to detect the distribution of traditional fishing vessels with small size (11-15 meters) is about 30% and over estimate measuring between 7.5 to 8 meters.

This article is a critique of the project modernity from the vantage point of an indigenous occupational community of Goa which for centuries has been pursuing sustainable livelihood practices. It revolves around the traditional occupation of fishing in the context of modernist threat it faces. Informed by the theoretical insights provided by Frank’s theory of development of underdevelopment, this article argues that our understanding of environmental change as a social process is inextricably linked with the expansion and contradiction of the world economic system. While delineating Frank’s theory of underdevelopment as theoretical support, it captures the indigenous knowledge systems of the fishing community of Goa, highlighting its ecological sensitivity. It then addresses the changes that have affected this community in the wake of enforced modernisation and development. It specifically focuses on the social movements carried out by the traditional fishermen of Goa in an attempt to protect their traditional fishing practices.
