In the development of fisheries in Central Sulawesi, there are some things that seem ironic to the potential and the sea area of Central Sulawesi, namely:

· Central Sulawesi has a plant not marine fisheries product processing as a barometer of the potential availability of seafood in the area, so many fishermen catch large scale / small it was rushed out as the Central Sulawesi and North Sulawesi, South Sulawesi. When compared with the North Sulawesi have at least 5 fish-processing companies could be the Central Sulawesi was left in the maximum utilization of marine catches it comes from its own territory. Regional Companies  in Central Sulawesi had tried to manage the fruit cold storage 2 to accommodate the fishermen fishery but then stopped operating due to maintenance costs that are considered high.

· No presence of processing centers of traditional fishery products such as salted fish processing, Pindang, shrimp paste, fish sauce, smoked fish, etc., in the area of Central Sulawesi and there was no sign of the maximum efforts to build communities in managing fisheries. If there is only a response to the abundance of their own society and seafood such as salted fish processing in Pagimana – Banggai district (processed fish from fresh fish does not come from the remaining fish / almost rotten as it did in other regions) suggests that the fishermen had no place to channel fresh fish at reasonable prices so that the fish are dried and processed directly into salted fish .

· Facilities and infrastructure are still very poor fisheries to sustain the extent of such waters Fish Landing Center (PPI), there were only 4 (four) pieces and that too has not functioned optimally, Place of Landing Fish (TPI) of 7 (the fruit) of fruit spread in 9 districts and 1 city. Quality Testing Laboratory of Fisheries (LPPMHP) there is only 1 piece of Fisheries and Marine Prop. In Kota Palu.

· Fishing fleet is still very poor and inadequate consists djoekoengs 14,215 units, 4959 units of the board boats, outboard motors and 1706 units 1362 units of motor boats (Bappeda Sulawesi, 2002). This resulted in cruising and fishing skills are still very low. There are efforts from local governments to assist groups of fishermen to conduct the procurement of fiberglass boats but always collided with ship operations management mechanisms such as the fishing communities which are given, how the cost of operations, where the prisoner and return on investment from fishing (as indicated by the Regency Donggala years 2006).

Thus a brief description of the potential of Central Sulawesi Sea is not balanced with the availability of infrastructure support. It is time for Government / County / City in Central Sulawesi is more focused regional programs for fisheries and marine sector as well as opening up to the local and international investors as a fishing community empowerment process independent and professionally.
