    A consultancy was implemented to initiate the brackishwater aquaculture demonstration pilot project at Ban Merbok, Kedah state in Malaysia. The work consisted in selecting site, preparing the design and construction procedure, and setting guidelines for the future operation of the project. There was a question whether to establish the pilot family size small-holder pond demonstration inside or outside a man-made bund in the area. The technical and socio-economic considerations were appraised i n each case and it was determined by the Government Task Force that demonstration outside the bund was more advantageous. The Task Force functioned with the technical advice of this consultancy. To ensure the continuing supply of stocking material for penaeid shrimp and finfish, complementary project consisting of the establishment of a hatchery was also looked into. Prospective sites were surveyed and preliminary selection of the most suitable area was determined. Preliminary guidelines for t he construction and operation of the hatchery were also laid down.

    Since 1999, the Federal Government of Nigeria has been seriously pursuing the quest for serlf-sufficiency in food production. This commitment to the development of the nations potentials in agriculture resulted in the formulation and implementation, in conjunction with the Food and Agricultural Organisation (FAO) of the United Nations, of the USD 45.2 million National Special Programme for Food Security (NSPFS). Under its Food Security sub-project, the government is promoting rapid investment in agriculture within 109 sites in all 36 States and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) i.e. one site of 400-600 ha in each of the senatorial districts of the country.
