Global experts in aquaculture said in a recent international workshop here that to enhance successes in resource enhancement and prevent failures in the aquaculture industry, member-countries of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) must share information. The appeal was made at the International Workshop on the Promotion of Sustainable Aquaculture, Aquatic Animal Health and Resource Enhancement in Southeast Asia (SARSEA) organized by the Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center/Aquaculture Department (SEAFDEC/AQD) on June 25-27, 2019 at Richmonde Hotel in Iloilo City. The experts said sharing information among ASEAN member-countries was in view of the need for stronger capabilities in the detection of diseases in aquaculture resources so that aquaculture industries and institutions engaged in aquaculture resource enhancement avoid repetitions of mistakes.
