The series of Conferences on the economic development of Southeast Asia convened in early 60s that substantiated the development of fisheries as means of improving the food situation of the region, had given rise to the eventual establishment of the Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center (SEAFDEC) in December 1967. While discussions on the importance of inland water fisheries continued to take place, during the latter Conferences, SEAFDEC was asked to also address the region’s concern on the need for multiplication and conservation of inland water fishery resources. Such proposition came into view as SEAFDEC had focused its activities on marine fisheries development since the start of its operations, through its Training Department (TD) and Marine Fisheries Research Department (MFRD), and later its Aquaculture Department (AQD) and Marine Fishery Resources Development and Management Department (MFRDMD), notwithstanding the efforts of AQD in conducting research on freshwater aquaculture at its Binangonan Freshwater Station since 1978.
