Mokhtar National Oceanography Directorate (NOD) Ministry of Science Technology and Innovation, MOSTI
2 Introduction Marine Bio-economy PRESENTATION OUTLINE CTI-CFF Strategies Marine Spatial Planning Conclusion
3 The Bio-economy The move to a GREEN FUTURE a sustainable economy that uses biological resources from land and sea as input to the industry and energy sector and bio-based process to green industries and to recycle waste streams. Converging all industries and economic sectors that produce, manage and otherwise make use of biological resources (incl. bio-waste) such as agriculture, forestry, fisheries, food, wellness, chemicals and energy. Based on knowledge and innovation in biosciences, in convergence with other technologies, e.g. engineering, chemistry, computer science and nanotechnologies. i.e driven by BIOTECHNOLOGY

27 Recognised as a Priority Conservation Area in SSME* Productive marine ecosystem (coral reefs, sea grasses and mangroves) Fish habitat & breeding grounds A corridor route for various types of migratory marine animals (whales, dolphins, dugongs and turtles) * SSME Sulu Sulawesi Marine Ecoregion
28 Dato Sri Mohd Najib bin Tun Haji Abdul Razak, Coral Triangle Initiative Summit, Manado, Indonesia, 15 May 2009 Malaysia is very committed to ensuring that our marine ecosystem remains healthy so that this rich biodiversity can be enjoyed in perpetuity and sustainably utilized for wealth creation in line with our objective to be a fully developed nation by 2020
29 Promote international cooperation on a global and regional and level.
30 TRADE IN CORAL REEF SPECIES International trade in coral, reef fish, live rock, and other coral reef organisms are activities that contribute to the decline and degradation of reefs, primarily through destructive fishing practices and the overexploitation of resources. Recent surveys of 300 reefs worldwide found that key target species of commercial interest were absent, or present in very low numbers (Hodgson, 1999).

38 SOLAR ENERGY ALGAE BIOMASS BIOFUEL MICROALGAE LIPIDS BIODIESEL. The oil content of microalgae can range from 16 to 68% dry weight (Chisti, 2007). The oil yield from microalgae can reach up to 136,900 L/ha compared to other plant crops, which range from 172 to 5950 L/ha (Chisti, 2007). Using genetically-modified algae, a US company claimed to be able to produce 4000 gall/ac/yr of crude diesel from 40 tonnes/ac/yr biomass (presented at ISAP, Galway, 2008).

54 INTEGRATED ECORESOURCE MANAGEMENT STUDY Kota Marudu is one of the districts in Kudat with approximately square kilometres of land. The population in Kota Marudu as at 2009 is approximately 72,900 with the average population of five per household (Department of Statistics, Malaysia, 2010). Much of the wetland is state owned; surrounding areas are largely alienated for permanent and shifting agriculture. The mangrove swamps and intertidal mudflats support a major commercial fishery for both fin fish and prawns. A majority of the community depends on fisheries resources to support their livelihood.

68 Marine Spatial Planning
69 MPAs in the Coral Triangle (>1500) Blue Economy Pilot Study for Rio+20
70 Spatial Planning in Malaysia Main goal: co-ordination and regulation of land-use Guiding principle: sustainable spatial development - social and economic demands need to be consistent with ecological functions
71 Area ~ mill. ha. (2.54 mill. acres); More than 50 islands 3 districts: Kudat, Kota Marudu & Pitas Population ~ 80,000 coastal people; Tun Mustapha Park - 4 species of turtles species of fish species of corals species of invertebrates - 15,500 TM fish landing (~ 100 TM landing /day, ~ RM 700,000.00/day) Tun Mustapha Park Tun Mustapha Park
72 Marine spatial planning (MSP) in Tun Mustapha Park Zoning of TMP is currently proposed for several zone categories namely, No Take, Multi-use, Community Use, Special Managed and Buffer zones. Sabah Parks, together with WWF-Malaysia and under the guidance of University of Queensland, Brisbane is preparing the zone maps using Marxan software. Once they are prepared, a series of consultations conducted by the steering committee with stakeholders will be conducted before fine-tuning the zones based on received feedbacks.
73 For the proposed TMP, the basis for MPA zoning is a mixture of sociological & biophysical principals ie: Biophysical Principles for Integrating Fisheries, Biodiversity & Climate Change Objectives Socio-Economic Principles Governance is also part of the aspects that are being considered to be discussed for future management approach (co-management) in TMP.
74 CONCLUSIONS CTI promotes innovations in marine scientific research and technology, and apply scientific results to ocean management, economic development and national food security Foster publicity and education, and enhance public awareness of the importance of the oceans and marine resources management (ie. World Ocean Week 2013)
75 World Ocean Week (WOW 13) On 1st week of June (1 10 June 2013) In conjunction with the World Ocean Day (WOD) - 8 June 2013 and Coral Triangle Day - 9 June main programmes including satellite event in Sabah. 8th June 2013 Coral Triangle Day 9th June 2013
76 Conclusions Problems and opportunities are interconnected and must be addressed in an integrated manner through facilitation and effective implementation Integration must occur: across the terrestrial and marine domains; for differing needs over time; and between the need for development and environmental protection
