This paper discusses the structure of the advertising regulations and standards within APEC economies and contributes to the integration objectives among APEC member economies. It provides an inventory check of these standard regulations and comparing them with what is considered “international best practice.� In addition, since in several economies, advertising regulations are largely carried out by the industry itself through self-regulatory organizations (SROs), the paper also assesses the capabilities of many of these organizations within the region. 60 pages

The report highlights the global trade prospects in seafood which tends to flow heavily from developing to developed countries. It predicts that 62 percent of food fish will come from aquaculture by 2030 with the fastest supply growth likely to come from tilapia, carp, and catfish. Global tilapia production is expected to almost double from 4.3 million tons to 7.3 million tons a year between 2010 and 2030. The report also presents how to manage marine and coastal resources, including fish stock and habitat in the face of climate change threats. It also provides valuable information for developing countries interested in growing their economies through sustainable fish production. 102 pages
