Ekonomiczna pomoc - pobieranie | approximately $60 million w annual grants from Francja |
Ekonomia | The inhabitants have traditionally earned their livelihood by fishing and by servicing fishing fleets operating off the coast of Newfoundland. The economy has been declining, however, because of disputes z Kanada over fishing quotas and a steady decline w the number of ships stopping at Saint Pierre. In 1992, an arbitration panel awarded the islands an exclusive economic zone of 12,348 sq km to settle a longstanding territorial dispute z Kanada, although it represents only 25% of what Francja had sought. Francja heavily subsidizes the islands to the great betterment of living standards. The government hopes an expansion of tourism will boost economic prospects. Fish farming, crab fishing, and agriculture are being developed to diversify the local economy. Recent test drilling dla oil may pave the way dla development of the energy sector. |
