Secondly, non probability sampling is used to identify 16 informants and collected data by using ‘Analysis Hierarchy Process (‘AHP’)’ questionnaire. It is analyzed by using ‘AHP’ (analytical hierarchy process) program to identify priorities of variables, indicators and strategies which effectively affect the improvement of traditional fisher’s welfare. Results show that the variables and indicators improvement of the traditional fishers’ welfare are: (1) environmental change, (2) adaptive behavior, and (3) coastal development.
