Note: The above list is prepared with a view to warranting the implementation of the Fisheries Development Plan for the Third Malaysia Plan (1976–80). The same type of studies will have to be carried out between 1976 and 1978 to prepare the implementation for the next period.
Assistance for all the above activities can be obtained from the South China Sea Programme as per project document submitted to the Government.
