More DescriptionThe Workshop was hosted by the Korea Maritime Institute (KMI) and organized by the Fishery Industries Division of FAO in cooperation with the Asia Pacific Rural and Agricultural Credit Association (APRACA). The findings and recommendations of the Workshop suggest that many countries in Asia and the Pacific benefit from globalization and deregulation. These benefits include improved quality and better access of their fishery products to markets in other countries within and outside Asia and the Pacific, increased export earnings, exchange of technology, increased productivity and efficiency and better supply of fishery products for local populations through liberalization of imports of fishery products. The negative effects of globalization and deregulation identified in the Workshop included increased competition for the small-scale domestic fisheries sector mainly through import of low-priced fish products.
