JAKARTA: Indonesia's navy and its maritime affairs and fisheries ministry is scheduled to sink 41 vessels caught fishing illegally in its waters on Wednesday, following court decisions declaring them guilty of poaching.

"All of the 41 boats will be sunk on May 20 at 10am. The boats originated from Thailand, Vietnam, China, Malaysia and the Philippines," said the ministry's director general for maritime and fisheries resources surveillance Asep Burhanuddin.

The ministry, according to Asep, will sink 19 boats while the navy will handle the rest.

Hey, Viet guy, this three months are the key period per year for all fishes to grow and reproduce. Follow the natural rules, come 3 months later, rob or steal, okay? please, ! otherwise, the fishing resource will be ruined year after year.
 
Good policy for the fish. Meanwhile there will be scarcity for fish products in the market that maybe Indonesia can provide to the world market. Win win for Indonesia and for the fish.

This is political, provocative tactic of China. This ban applied to China's EZZ besed on UNCLOS. China doesn't have right over EZZ of Paracel and Spratly which belong to Vietnam.

Ban of China is meaningless.

Beijing voices concern after Indonesia sinks Chinese boat
Indonesia has sunk 41 impounded foreign fishing vessels at several sites, including a large Chinese ship detained in 2009 for fishing in Indonesia's exclusive economic zone in the South China Sea.
  • POSTED: 21 May 2015 21:02
JAKARTA: Beijing expressed concern on Thursday (May 21) after Indonesia destroyed 41 impounded foreign vessels including a Chinese boat, as the world's biggest archipelago nation ramps up efforts to stop illegal fishing in its waters.

Indonesia sank the empty fishing vessels at several sites on Wednesday, local media reported, including a large Chinese ship detained in 2009 for fishing in Indonesia's exclusive economic zone in the South China Sea.

Boats from Vietnam, Thailand and the Philippines which had been caught fishing illegally in Indonesian waters were also sunk, with some blown up using dynamite.

Indonesian President Joko Widodo launched the campaign to clamp down on illegal fishing soon after taking office in October and several foreign trawlers had already been sunk, but it was the first time a Chinese boat was targeted.

Jakarta had been accused in the past of turning a blind eye to illegal Chinese fishing activities in Indonesian waters, not wanting to anger its vastly more powerful trading partner. However, Beijing was unhappy at the move.

"China is gravely concerned about relevant reports, and is asking the Indonesian side to make clarifications," foreign ministry spokesman Hong Lei told reporters.

"We hope that the Indonesian side can press ahead with fishery cooperation in a constructive manner and safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of Chinese companies."

Indonesia does not have overlapping territorial claims with Beijing in the hotly contested South China Sea, home to vital shipping lanes and believed to be rich in oil and gas, unlike several other Asian nations.

But Jakarta has objected to China's nine-dash line - the demarcation Beijing uses on maps to demonstrate its claim to almost the whole of the sea - as it overlaps with Indonesia's exclusive economic zone around Natuna, a string of islands rich in fishing stocks on the far northwest fringe of the archipelago.

Indonesia has defended its policy of seizing and destroying illegal fishing boats and Fisheries Minister Susi Pudjiastuti told The Jakarta Post newspaper that sinking vessels was for "the welfare of our fishermen".

Widodo has said illegal fishing costs Southeast Asia's biggest economy billions of dollars in lost revenues every year. He hopes that increased earnings from fishing can boost economic growth, which has sunk to a five-year low.

Authorities also say foreigners illegally fishing in Indonesia are partly responsible for massive damage to the environment due to the widespread use of explosives and cyanide.

Jakarta view Beijing as friend and partner for development in Indonesia. Jakarta also respect Beijing concern over this issue, and most likely will send government representative to inform the situation and discuss this in friendly manner. We will talk over this issue at the dining table with smile.

Indonesia can and will uphold the law to protect our national interest. We will continue to sink all the illegal fishing boat and punish smuggling practice that happen within our water without discrimination. We have no problem with China, and any nation in the region, what we fight is the illegal practice that violate indonesia's law.

Why bring hua chinese into this? I'm a javanese. But as a big and mature nation, we will of course discuss this issue with any concerning nation in a friendly manner.

let them bro. let them continue concentrating on illegal fishing and drug abuse issues. they want to show outsiders they are tough to please domestic sentiment. the economy shrinks, the currency sinks. but the new government does not care. with sinking prices of commodities, they soon run out of money. Australia cuts support, so many other countries. the chinese are smart. they continue exploiting the situation and make them to economic slaves. I bet indo will increase exporting domestic helpers to other countries to get money.

Yea, let Indonesia implement our own maritime policy. Critics will be heard and reviewed, but will not stop the effort to strengthen our maritime economy, culture and security.

When critics can only see the flashy point, this policy actually made to save and develop $B30 economic potential in Indonesia's maritime sector. With 2/3 of Indonesia's territory consist of water, it's only logical that Indonesia addressing this matter seriously. And our regional neighbor will realize that we are dead serious when things get blown up.

Does Indonesia, a member in G20, 16 largest economy in the world, democratic, stable with positive economic outlook, one of the best performing emerging market in the world, the largest economy in ASEAN, really need aid?

Since we are still developing, i would say that Indonesia still need help from other friendly developed nations to achieve better performance in many sector, but we are NOT begging it. We accept help and friendship, but we will not be bossed around and be told what to do. Our country, our policy.

Indonesia don't care about Australian aid, but Indonesia do care about our friendship and bilateral relation. 40% from $M500 is a small change for Indonesia, our GDP alone is close to $B900.

When critics bet on Indonesia downfall, i personally believe Indonesia will achieve a great success in the future.
