Abstract

Countries with large ocean areas tend to rely on aquaculture products to drive their economy, such as Kiribati which relies heavily on the fisheries sector because its ocean area is significantly larger than its land area. To claim that the sea is Kiribati's only hope for its economy is not an exaggeration given how much aquaculture products contribute to its national income. Unfortunately, Kiribati's heavy reliance on the fisheries sector is not balanced with an adequate management framework and this condition is increasingly exacerbated by climate change and over-exploitation of marine resources, which are posing serious threats to Kiribati's economy. Using descriptive qualitative methods, this research aims to identify sectors with potential as new economic sources and challenges for the development of a blue circular economy in Kiribati. The findings of this research will reveal that Kiribati has several sectors that can be utilized in the implementation of a circular blue economy. However, numerous challenges prevent these sectors from reaching their full potential. Furthermore, this research will aim to formulate policy recommendations to maximize Kiribati's circular blue economy potentials.

Abstract

This article aims to analyze the comparative implementation of UPOV 1991 as a form of international compliance and its impact in Singapore and Japan. The findings of this research reveal that Singapore ratified UPOV 1991 in 2004 and implemented it in the Plant Varieties Protection Act 2004. Meanwhile, Japan ratified UPOV 1991 in 1998 and implemented it in the amendments to the Plant Variety Protection and Seed Act 1978. It provides a 25-year protection guarantee for plant breeders, and the adoption of UPOV 1991 also has various other impacts on Singapore and Japan. Singapore has made notable strides in the agricultural innovation sector and is more actively involved in international cooperation addressing developing effective plant variety protection systems. As for Japan, a more efficient framework for the use of IPR, which increases the competitiveness of domestic agriculture, has been established, and innovation in plant variety testing technology continues to experience advancements that bring numerous benefits to local farmers.
