Moderator – Dr. Jae Park – We had historically the lowest TAC for Alaska pollock in 2009 and 2010 (815,000 M/T and 813,000 M/T), respectively).  With its increase by 50%, we had 1.27 Million M/T of pollock and 393,751 M/T of Pacific whiting in 2011. In 2012, Pollock TAC has been set at 1.2 million M/T. Are the resurrected pollock and whiting going to change our global market?  In the meantime Vietnam and China have produced more than 100, 000 M/T surimi in 2010 respectively, but the fishing landing has been reduced significantly in SE Asia in 2011-2012. While still facing a slow global economy, what is our current market and future?
