This chapter describes the enormous reconstruction and development of the Kaohsiung fishing port after the Second World War - plus ancillary industries such as shipbuilding, ice manufacturing, and fish processing - and the impact on Taiwanese Fishing. It also addresses the Taiwanese fisheries education programme and the way it supported their development. It concludes that the construction of the Kaohsiung fishing port was a catalyst for growth in the Taiwanese fishing industry, as it dominated the waters and led to the construction of the Cianjhen fishing port in 1967, an enormous technical achievement in the region.

The Impact

Musculoskeletal health conditions such as arthritis, osteoporosis and pain syndromes impart a profound socioeconomic burden worldwide, particularly in developed nations such as Australia. Despite the identified burden, substantial evidence-practice and care disparity gaps remain in service delivery and access that limit the potential for improved consumer outcomes and system efficiencies. Addressing these gaps requires a whole-of-sector response, supported by evidence-informed health policy. Models of care (MoCs) serve as a policy vehicle to embed evidence into health policy and guide practice through changes in service delivery systems and clinician behaviour. In Australia, MoCs for musculoskeletal health have been developed by networks of multidisciplinary stakeholders and are incrementally being implemented across health services, facilitated by dedicated policy units and clinical champions. A web of evidence is now emerging to support this approach to driving evidence into health policy and practice. Understanding the vernacular of MoCs and the development and implementation of MoCs is important to embracing this approach to health policy. What is known about the topic? The impact of musculoskeletal health conditions is profound. As the awareness around the magnitude of the impact of these conditions increases, the importance of system-wide policy responses and platforms for health service improvements is now recognised. The term ‘models of care’ is not new. It has been used for many years, mainly at the hospital level, for planning and delivering clinical services. However, over the past 8 years an alternative approach using health networks has been adopted for the development and implementation of models of care to achieve broad engagement and a wider and more sustainable scope for implementation. What does this paper add? Here, we provide a rationale for the development of models of care for musculoskeletal health and draw on experience in their development and implementation using a health network model, referring to an emerging web of evidence to support this approach. We describe what models of care are, how they are developed and question whether they make a difference and what the future may hold. What are the implications for practitioners? All indications suggest that models of care are here to stay. Therefore, this paper provides practitioners with a contemporary overview of models of care in Australia, their relevance to musculoskeletal healthcare, particularly related to closing evidence-practice gaps, and opportunities for sector engagement.

Sejak tahun 2011 Kementerian Kelautan dan Perikanan (KKP) telah menggulirkan program Pengembangan Usaha Mina Pedesaaan-Pengolahan dan Pemasaran Hasil Perikanan (PUMP-P2HP) untuk membantu mengembangkan usaha pengolahan dan pemasaran ikan, namun begitu belum banyak penelitian mengenai dampak program tersebut terhadap kelompok pengolah dan pemasaran hasil perikanan (Poklahsar) penerima bantuan. Untuk itu penting dilakukan penelitian dampak program PUMP-P2HP sebagai bahan infomasi untuk perbaikan program secara lebih akurat, efektif dan efisien. Penelitian dilaksanakan pada tahun 2014 di 9 lokasi penerima bantuan yaitu Kab. Pesisir Selatan, Kab. Cirebon, Kota Makasar, Kab. Tangerang, Kota Banda Aceh, Kab. Banjar, Kab. Sukabumi, Kota Sibolga, dan Kab.Lombok Timur. Penelitian dilakukan dengan pendekatan kualitatif dan kuantitatif yang berusaha membandingkan kondisi Poklahsar sebelum dan sesudah program PUMP-P2HP yang dijalankan pada tahun 2012. Pemilihan lokasi penelitian dilakukan secara purposif terhadap daerah yang menerima bantuan PUMP-P2HP dengan keterwakilan antara wilayah barat dan timur. Pengambilan sampel dilakukan secara acak terhadap 30 responden di tiap lokasi melalui wawancara dengan menggunakan kuesioner terstruktur. Analisis data menggunakan uji-t untuk menganalisa signifikansi perubahan antara tahun sebelum implementasi program dan setelah implementasi program terhadap responden yang sama. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan produksi rata-rata Poklahsar sebelum mendapatkan bantuan adalah 192 kg/siklus dengan rata-rata produktivitas 17 siklus/bulan. Produktivitas terkecil terjadi di Kota Makasar dengan angka 50 kg/siklus. Setelah mendapatkan bantuan program PUMP-P2HP, terdapat peningkatan produksi olahan ikan sebesar 66,5% pada setiap unit pengolahan dengan rata-rata produksi sebesar 320 kg/siklus. Selain itu, terdapat perbedaan pendapatan yang signifikan antara sebelum dan sesudah program PUMP. Ratarata pendapatan olahan ikan dan pemasaran perikanan sebelum adanya program PUMP-P2HP adalah Rp. 2.470.233 dan meningkat menjadi Rp. 3.727.666 setelah adanya program tersebut. Hal ini dapat disimpulkan bahwa terjadi peningkatan pendapatan pada usaha pengolahan ikan dan pemasaran perikanan di Indonesia, meskipun tidak diikuti dengan peningkatan yang signifikan pada penggunaan tenaga kerja. (Economic Impacts of PUMP Program to The Fish Processor and Marketing Enterprise)Since 2011 The Ministry of Marine Affairs and Fisheries has been implementing Program of Rural Fisheries Businesses – Processing and Marketing of Fisheries Products (PUMP-P2HP) since to develop fisheries processing and marketing businesses. However, there are limited studies on the impact to the program recipients (fish processor groups). Therefore, it is important to study the impact of the PUMPP2HP program to obtain the improvement program information more accurately, effectively and efficiently. The study was conducted in 2014 in 9 region beneficiaries: Pesisir Selatan District, Cirebon District, Makasar Municipality, Tangerang District, Banda Aceh Municipality, Banjar District, Sukabumi District, Sibolga Municipality, and Lombok Timur District. Qualitative and quantitative approaches were used on this study to compare the conditions before and after program implemented in 2012. Research location was selected purposively towards districts which received the program with representation between western and eastern regions. Sampling was collected randomly to 30 respondents in each location by using structured questionnaires. T-test was used to analyze the changes of respondents performance due to the implemented program. Results showed that the average production of fish processing groups before program was 192 kg/cycle with average production 17 cycles/month, the smallest production was in Makasar Municipality (50 kgs/cycle). There was an increasing on production of fish processing products in every recipient business unit after receiving the program (66.5%) with average production was 320 kgs/ cycle. Furthermore, there was a significant difference in income between before and after the program implemented. The average income of the fish processor before the program was IDR 2,470,233 and increased to IDR 3,727,666 after the program. It can be concluded that the revenue of fish processors increased significantly, whereas the use of labor did not improve.

Deep cutting of fish raw materials is a priority for fish processing enterprises. The the influence of high-pressure processing of fish fillets has been studied and it has been shown that the impact of pressure above 100 MPa leads to a decrease in the total contamination by microorganisms. Further increase in pressure leads to an even greater decrease in the total number of microorganisms. The structural and mechanical properties of the fillet change slightly. High pressure makes the fish’s muscle tissue more dense. Pressure-treated fillets supposed to be stored chilled or frozen for much longer, since their initial quality indicators are much higher than those of fillets not treated with high pressure. The possibility of enriching the whole muscle tissue of fish with vegetable oil lipids when exposed to high pressure is shown.

The Impact

The special situation brought about by the coronavirus pandemic and the confinement imposed by the Government, has given rise to numerous changes in working habits. The workers at the universities have had to start a period of teleworking that could give rise to consequences for the musculoskeletal system. The objective of this article is to analyze the impact of the confinement on the musculoskeletal health of the staff of two Spanish universities. A cross-sectional, observational study was carried out on the workers. Data was taken in April–May 2020 and included: The Standardized Kuorinka Modified Nordic Questionnaire, the Perceived Stress Scale and another one on sociodemographic data. This study comprised 472 people. The areas of pain noted during the confinement period concluded that it was less in all cases (p < 0.001). The frequency of physical activity carried out increased significantly during the period of confinement (p < 0.04), especially in women. The type of physical activity done was also seen to modify during this period (p < 0.001), with a preference for strength training and stretching exercises. In conclusion, the confinement gave rise to changes in the lifestyle and in the musculoskeletal pain of the workers at the universities. All of this must be taken into account by health institutions and those responsible for the Prevention of Occupational Risks at Spanish universities.
