This data was collected through literature study and complemented by field observations and semi-structured interviews with groups of fishermen in Kampung Nelayan Kakap, Kubu Raya, West Kalimantan and related government agencies in West Kalimantan. By using the snowball sampling technique as an interview sample, the research results show that the majority of people's livelihoods in Fisherman's Village rely on catching fish, shrimp and crabs by fishermen using small traditional boats. The decreasing number of fish catches is also a problem faced by local fishermen, even though selling prices have increased in line with increasing demand for fishery products.
