两岸合作开发南海渔业资源规划研究

Planning and Studies on the Development of Fisheries Resources in the South China Sea via Cross-Strait Cooperation

目前南海北部近海渔业资源日益衰退，未来开发重点应在资源状况较好的中南部外海，但该海域远离大陆、海况天气多变、外来侵渔频发，这迫使优势互补的两岸渔业应进一步加强在南海的合作，以增强南海外海渔场开发实力．共同抵御外来侵渔，在保护两岸渔民合法权益的同时，维护南海渔业资源主权权利。具体合作规划是，由两岸海协会和海基会组织适当渔业公司，按一定比例出资。尽快合作设立南海渔业有限责任公司。该公司在谋取经济利益的同时，还应担负维护国家海洋权益的重任。公司总部可设在香港，经营范围主要为南海中南部岛礁渔业和大洋性渔业。

As near-shore fisheries resources in the northern South China Sea （SCS） are depleting gradually, future development of the resources should focus more on the central and southern SCS where richer resources exist. However, this re- gion is far from landmass with frequent changes in weather and sea state, and subject to recurring invasions by foreign fishermen. Thus the mutually compensated Cross- Strait fisheries should strengthen cooperation in the SCS in order to improve the ca- pacity of fishing ground development in the off-shore SCS area, and to defend the le- gitimate rights and interests of the fishermen across the strait against foreign inva- sions, and to protect the sovereign rights over the SCS fisheries resources. Practical cooperative planning involves formation of a suitable fisheries corpora- tion jointly by the Association for Relations across the Taiwan Straits （ARATS） and Straits Exchange Foundation （SEF） with a certain proportion of funds provided by both sides. The SCS Fisheries Corporation Ltd. can be formed accordingly and swift- ly. While promoting economic benefits, the Corporation should also bear the respon- sibility of protecting national maritime rights. The headquarters may be located in Hong Kong. The operation should cover mainly the coral reef and deep-sea fisheries in the central and southern SCS.
