Weber, Michael (1997). "Effects of Japanese Government Subsidies of
Distant Water Tuna Fleets: A Case Study." World Wildlife Fund, 1250
Twenty-Fourth Street, NW, Washington, D.C., January, 18 pp.
This paper describes subsidy programs of Japan that have built and
maintained the distant water tuna fleet. The paper then outlines the
principal features of access agreements in the South Pacific region, focusing
upon access agreements between Japan and the Solomon Islands. A general
description of Japanese development assistance to Pacific Island countries
leads to a specific description of some aid projects with the Solomon Islands
specifically. Economic returns on the subsidies provided by the government of
Japan are analyzed, and the role of Japanese trading companies in the
expansion of tuna fishing in the South Pacific is described. The paper ends
with a discussion of likely future developments in tuna fishing in the South
Pacific region.
