Fisheries have historically been one of the most important sectors for Asia-Pacific small island developing States; accordingly, Governments have tried to develop them. The first substantial initiatives by Governments to increase benefits from the fisheries sector started in the 1960s and 1970s and were mainly through coastal fisheries development. The derived benefits were mostly in the form of greater cash income and an increased supply of fish for growing urban areas.
