Initially reef fish only came from the South China Sea, but transport developed and fish now come from all over S.E. Asia. The whole reef fish trade crashed with the 97-98 HK stock market crash. LRF trade is directly linked to economy. With China coming online financially the trade is booming. These fish are used for celebratory meals... not everyday fare. In China the company pays for meals and the stereotype is that there is lots of food left on the table. Often a fish is popular because of its color... more than its taste.
