Abstract

The “yellow card” issued by the European Union forced Thai government to improve and enforce laws to resolve the problem of the illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing in Thailand. The improvements and enforcements of the fishing laws have directly affected the production activities in the fishery sector. This study applied the SARIMA with intervention model to assess the impact of law enforcement on the fishery sector in Pattani, which is indicated by changes in commercial fish landings at Pattani fishing port. The result shows that since the order 10/2558 of the National Council for Peace and Order has entered into enforce, the landings have decreased by about 1,444.7 tons per month. This reveals the impact that the entrepreneurs in the fishery sector and other economic sectors in Pattani have to face.
