Taiwan is surrounded by the sea on all sides, and conditions for the development of the fishing industry were originally excellent, but because of the pollution caused by industrial development and improper fishing methods, the Taiwan coastal and inshore fishing industries have fallen on hard times.
再看漁業，台灣由於四面環海，漁業發展本來有很好的條件，可是由於工業發展帶來的汙染，及長久以來過當的捕魚方式，使得台灣沿岸及近海漁業面臨了很大的困境。
