resources, in this regard, try to make collaborative works among Mekong countries as well as with
China, developmental projects are main barriers for fish migrations. There are almost no
developmental projects as well as irrigation dams in Myanmar’s sector, Mekong River. Along the
Mekong River, it is necessary to observe how to balance for fish migrations against developmental
projects.
Poulsen A.F, Ouch Poeu, Sintavong Viravong, Ubolratana Suntornratana and Nguyen
Thanh Tung stated in 2002; another important issue to emphasize is that for a large and complex
ecosystem such as that of the Mekong Basin, decision-making cannot be based solely on
quantitative data (e.g. fisheries yield data). Decisions should be taken within the framework of a
holistic ecosystem approach where both quantitative data and qualitative information are taken
into account on equal terms. In such a framework, fisheries are just one of many ecosystem services
that should be considered. Concerning this study for Mekong River in Myanmar sector; it was
equally carried on empirical qualitative and quantitative research with aquatic ecosystem
especially for fisheries are considerably as recreation purpose Mekong River in Myanmar.

Conclusions

In the present study, local public awareness for resource governance is successfully
accomplished by meeting with local indigenous village leaders, villagers; all stakeholders are
involvement as interdisciplinary approaches for capacity building enhancement. Some tasks are
controversies among public for making sure environmental awareness and public involvement.
Niklas S. Mattson, Thomas Augustinus, Anders Poulsen and Wolf D. Hartmann explained in 2014,
it is argued that a common cognitive basis for fisheries management, which is seen as legitimate
by all stake holders, needs to be developed. Local knowledge contributed by fishers through co-
management can be used to highlight slower, more predictable variables, including information on
habitats and other basic biological and physical processes. Such information is essential for local
management, but should also be used in larger scale assessment of the fisheries resources. The
challenge will be to establish a process so that information from different sources, across scales
and sectors, can be integrated with management models to form legitimate interventions
Qualitative modeling was used to investigate five separate systems within the West Coast
Bioregion.
Metcalf, S.J., Gaughan, D.J. and Shaw, J. stated in 2009; Ecosystem dynamics and the
importance of social and economic links were examined using different scenarios for each of the
five systems. The systems included: the role of direct stakeholders in influencing government
decisions; management needs in Cockburn Sound; the impacts of the market on the western rock
lobster fishery; and alterations to recreational fisher behavior following hypothetical changes in
management. Investigations involved the examination of system stability and the inclusion/
removal of links between particular variables of interest to compare predictions between
alternative models. In addition, model predictions following a positive perturbation (i.e. positive
disturbance or increase) to specific variables were also used to examine various scenarios.
Relationships involving recreational fishing and the management of recreational fisheries were
found to be important in a number of the qualitative modeling scenarios. Further data collection
on the impacts of recreational fisher behavior including investigation into the social and economic
drivers behind recreational fishing is essential. In addition, quantitative information on economic
factors such as consumer demand, the influence of the international market and the Australian
