A more detailed survey is needed to allocate the area for the KKP and provide

recommendations or a general view of how Teluk Bintuni’s marine resources and marine

space should best be allocated among different uses to secure the objectives of sustainable

development.

With respect especially to fish for export, a forum involving buyers/fish farmers is needed to

discuss and better understand the status of fish stocks in Teluk Bintuni, and identify

appropriate resource utilization strategies, programs and opportunities to increase the fish

stocks.

LESSONS LEARNED & BEST PRACTICES

The main challenge encountered by the survey team was mainly in terms of the target respondents’

reaction to the survey. People were wary of new programs that may be initiated by the government,

making it difficult to make them accept and understand the survey’s intentions and how their

responses would be used. This is especially true for fishers who felt disadvantaged by coastal

development undertaken by government for industry or other uses.

One approach to counter this challenge is to meet, at the outset, with local leaders in an informal

setting to gain their trust and support, and to gather information that can be used to inform the

survey implementation procedures. These local leaders can become leads, and then the survey aims

and methodology can be communicated in a way that makes them easily acceptable and

understandable to the broader group of respondents.
