SEAFDEC activities, which take place in close cooperation between the SEAFDEC Secretariat, the Department and its Member States, are aimed at the sustainable development of fisheries in the Southeast Asian region. Thus, this issue of the bulletin would continue to use the previous framework for Member States' 2007 fisheries statistics. At the beginning of 2010, the results and achievements of the regional project related to fisheries statistics and information, implemented by SEAFDEC since 2001 in cooperation with Member States, were reviewed.
The revision was also intended to streamline fi shery statistics reporting to SEAFDEC and FAO and to harmonize standards, norms, classification and definitions to ease the burden on countries to compile the necessary statistics. Henceforth, the newly developed Framework of the Fisheries Statistical Bulletin of Southeast Asia will therefore be used as a basis in the streamlining of fisheries statistics reporting to SEAFDEC and FAO. As certain emerging issues and challenges are currently facing the fisheries sector of the region, SEAFDEC will continue its efforts to improve the regional compilation of fisheries statistics and information for policy planning and management.
Furthermore, based on the requirements of Member States, SEAFDEC would also develop necessary inputs relevant to the improvement of the compilation of fisheries statistics in the region, to be collected during the upcoming ASEAN-SEAFDEC Conference on Sustainable Fisheries for Food Security on the way to 2020. which will take place in June 2011. Special thanks also go to the members of the ASEAN Fisheries Statistics Network and the Contact Points in Member States for their continued support in compiling the required fisheries statistics and information. publication.
EXPLANATORY NOTES
GENERAL NOTES 1 Data Collection
The data compiled in this Bulletin is based in principle on the returns received from countries following a questionnaire prepared by the Secretariat, South East Asian Fisheries Development Center (SEAFDEC). However, in cases where a country could not provide the statistics for that year, the latest available data is included in the tables.
NOTES ON STATISTICS
Fisheries that require relatively less investment and are typically exploited by fishing households are considered small-scale fisheries. For statistical purposes, a fishing enterprise is a techno-economic unit of fisheries production under a single management. A fishing household is the usual form of management of the businesses in the region.
The types of management of fishing establishments are divided into: (a) individual management, (b) joint management, (c) cooperative (d) private enterprise, (e) state enterprise and (f) other. Although the method of measuring fishing boat tonnage varies from country to country, the data must be based on a national measurement. The statistics should cover annual data on fishing units operating in marine and brackish waters.
The code number for the regional classification of fishing gear must be indicated next to the type of fishing gear. The code number for the regional classification of fishing gear should be given for each type of fishing gear.

SUMMARY 2007
Statistical Summary
An Overview of Fishery Sector for the South China Sea Area in 2007
The Fisheries Sector
Marine Fisheries Production (in quantity and value)
Vietnam reported a production of 1,987,400 MT or 14.12% of total production, but the total value was not reported. Myanmar also reported its production at 1,485,740 MT or 10.57% of total production, but no value was reported. While the production of Brunei Darussalam increased by 568 MT or 28.61%, the value was not reported.
The second most exploited group of species was the Jack, Mullet and Sauries group with production of 1,819,637 MT (12.94% of the total regional production). The third most exploited group was redfish, bass and conger, with a total catch of 1,586,238 MT (11.28% of the total regional production). Despite the fact that the regional breakdown by species in terms of value was not reported from Cambodia, Myanmar and Vietnam, the data still showed that Penaeid shrimps accounted for the highest percentage, followed by other shrimps, Indian mackerel, various fish, squid, skipjack tuna, king mackerel, anchovies, tiger prawns and sardines.
The total catch of the herring, sardines and anchovies group accounted for landings of 595,211 tonnes (12.57% of the total Indonesian marine catch), while the catch of miscellaneous fish amounted to 523,159 tonnes (11.05% of the total Indonesian marine catch). sea catch). The other two species contributing notable landings were redfish, bass and conger eels and molluscs with 326,058 tonnes (14% of the national catch) and 150,175 tonnes (6.47% of the national catch) respectively.
Inland Fisheries
The other two species that contributed to notable landings were mackerel and crab with 335,800 tonnes (7.10% of Indonesia's total marine catch) and 316,391 tonnes (6.68% of Indonesia's total marine catch) respectively. However, of the countries that submitted their data, for example, Indonesia and Thailand reported high figures of USD 368 million and USD 267 million respectively, while the Philippines and Malaysia also reported their data at USD 125 million or 9 USD. million or However, the percentage contribution to regional production in terms of value could not be determined due to lack of data, making any conclusions unreliable.
After Myanmar, which reported the highest production of inland fisheries, Cambodia had the second highest production of 420,000 tonnes, of which the largest share came from the miscellaneous freshwater fish group with 419,400 tonnes. The third country was Indonesia with a reported quantity of 310,457 tonnes, where the dominant group was catfish with 50,184 tonnes, followed by the tilapia and other cichlid group with 49,812 tonnes and the gouramis group with 38,636 tonnes. The Philippines ranked fifth in the region with a reported total of 168,311 tons, dominated by the freshwater mollusc group with 61,775 tons, followed by the tilapia and other cichlid group with 37,649 tons, the miscellaneous freshwater fish group with 18,998 tons, and the carp and barbel group. at 15,578 tons.
Vietnam followed with a production of 133,600 tons, of which various freshwater fish contributed the largest share with 133,600 tons, followed by a group of turtles and other reptiles with 17,190 tons. Malaysian production was 4,283 tonnes, mainly coming from the carp and barbel group with 35,053 tonnes, followed by Catfish with 889 tonnes.
Aquaculture
- Mariculture
- Brackishwater culture
- Freshwater culture
In terms of value, no regional trend could be inferred because Brunei, Cambodia, Myanmar, Singapore and Vietnam did not report their respective data. The second mariculture species with the highest production was shellfish with 254,251 tonnes or 6.66% of the regional total, followed by miscellaneous marine molluscs with 186,623 tonnes or 4.89%. However, the value for Miscellaneous Marine Molluscs was the reverse and stood at US$172,120, the second highest value in terms of value.
The farmed fish group had the highest production of miscellaneous fish at 81,397 tons, with the Philippines sharing 79,575 tons or 97.76% of the total production of the species group. In terms of value, tiger prawns (scampi) provided the highest value at US$1,947 million, followed by Penaian shrimps (scampi) at US$1,497 million.
