Abstract

Flanked by two of the world’s largest marine fishing nations— Thailand to the west and Vietnam to the southeast—Cambodia’s relatively modest 435-km coastline has not historically been renowned for marine fisheries. However, despite the longstanding dominance of freshwater fisheries across the Cambodian portion of the Mekong River system, marine fisheries have grown considerably, their production increasing from 75,000 tonnes in 2009 to over 212,000 tonnes in 2018, a 180 percent growth in a decade.
