The estimated cost per boarding is in the order of US$15 000 (depending on the size of the patrol vessel). Using this value and based on IDA estimates the marginal cost of deterrence by boarding is in the order of US$65 000, i.e., 1 fewer violation per 4.6 boardings.

Malaysia’s MCS system. Malaysia has a well-developed MCS system with 85 patrol vessels of various types and sizes[54], 1,152 MCS staff including boat crews with (approximately 280 being in the officer/management category), and a computerized fisheries licensing system (on-line in the states and districts and once/24 hr download to HQ). The fisheries administration is seeking ISO 9000 certification for the system.
