Abstract

<p>Unpredictable disasters have brought impacts on coastal areas like Krueng Raya Bay. The present objectives are to assess asset damage and loss, and to determine fisheries livelihood options and changing livelihood patterns in affected fishing communities. Questionnaires, interview, and focus group discussion were used to obtain data in 2012. Loss of tangible assets of capture fisheries was USD 2.7 million. Intangible assets of social capital could not be measured; however, relationship, interaction and network pattern of fishing communities were changed. Fish production volume and value dramatically decreased, followed by an increase of operational and asset production cost. These factors influenced changes in fisheries livelihood. Asian tsunami caused the change of social capital pattern of fishing communities, and threatened sustainable livelihood.</p>
