Abstract

The oceans and seas of the Southeast Asian region abound with several species of oceanic and neritic tunas that are of high economic importance. Such resources not only generate export revenues for the countries of the region but also provide important protein sources for local populace. While oceanic tunas migrate over large sea areas and oceans, neritic tunas inhabit the economic zones and in the subregional seas of Southeast Asia. Statistical reports have indicated that oceanic tuna resources have been declining, this situation makes neritic tuna resources becoming more economically-important to the extent that the resources have increasingly become the target for commercial and local fisheries, especially that attractive prices are offered for such tunas by the fish processing industry.
