In Asia, this would mainly concern Japan. Chinese normally prefer domestic cooked fish and Koreans also do not use much tuna in their sashimi.

One good development would be to encourage especially chefs at hotels, cruise ships and other large fish consuming kitchens to switch to less endangered species. I think this is where the majority of the tuna in Asia and elsewhere goes to.
