Indonesia Maritime defence and security issue

Speaking of stealing... Most tragic is the plundering of fisheries in dirt poor & starving Africa:


---Most pirate fishers are Chinese & Korean in this vid


----------------------------------------------------------


---Chinese pirate fisher vessels seized in Argentina.

---Russia fires at Chinese pirate fishers, including sinking Chinese transport vessel.

---S. Korean Coast Guard kills Chinese pirate fishers


So will you now say "kudos to Argentina, Russia, S. Korea, Somalia, etc. now lets hope CCP will dump more ChinCongs into the slammer", Mr. Holier-Than-Thou?

Personally, I think Indonesian authorities have the right to confiscate and destroy any pirate vessles, fishing and otherwise. Just don't kill unarmed people who fully cooperate.
Poor africa, ask uncle sam to save them.
 
Indonesia Steps Up Fight Against Illegal Fishing With 4 New Ships

Indonesia will have four new surveillance vessels at its disposal this year to fight illegal fishing in the country's waters, an official with the Marine Affairs and Fisheries Ministry said on Monday.

"This year, the ministry will strengthen its surveillance force by adding four 60-meter vessels made by the Indonesian Fisheries Inspection Vessel System [SKIPI]," Asep Burhanuddin, the director of the ministry's Maritime and Fisheries Resources Monitoring Task Force (PSDKP), said on Monday in Jakarta, as quoted by state-run news agency Antara.com. .........

"Two will operate in the western region, while the other two will watch over the eastern area — likely in the Arafura Sea, North Sulawesi waters [both in the east], Natuna Islands and Malacca Strait [in the west of the archipelago]," he said. According to Asep, the four vessels cost about $18.8 million.

Navy to sink 12 illegal fishing boats

The war against illegal fishing activities continues with the Indonesian Navy unveiling a plan to sink 12 foreign vessels caught for conducting the activity later this week.

..... Seven of the boats were registered in Vietnam, four were operated by Philippines companies and one by a Thai operator.

..... Article 69 of Law No. 45/2009 on fisheries stipulates that the coast guard can sink foreign vessels operating illegally in the country’s territorial waters based on sufficient preliminary evidence.

..... The Indonesian authority has claimed that the number of illegal fishing activities had been reduced significantly, since Indonesia took a stern stance on the issue. However, many illegal fishermen manage to continue running their operations in the country’s territory. On Thursday, for instance, the Navy arrested a 140-gross tons cargo ship from Belize named Orien Star with tons of fish and shrimp heading to Malaysia.....

Lhokseumawe, Aceh (ANTARA News) - One of the foreign fishing vessels hoisting the Malaysian flag and identified as KM. KHF 1780, was drowned in the waters of Indonesias western-most province of Aceh after the case underwent a legal process.

In addition, the vessel was not equipped with fishing gears that are environment friendly, Nasruddin explained.(*)

Selasa, 20 Oktober 2015 22:41 WIB | 106 Views

Jakarta (ANTARA News) - National maritime resources and maritime security system are vital for the life of the state and nation as they are the backbone of Indonesias economy, National Resilience Institute (Lemhannas) Governor Budi Susilo Soepandji stated.

"Maritime resources are very important as they serve as the backbone of the nations economy, while the maritime security system is vitally needed to safeguard maritime resources," Soepandji noted at the Lemhannas building here on Tuesday.

The governor made the statement while addressing a national seminar on maritime security to support the unitary state of Indonesia as a sovereign maritime country.

With a strong maritime security system in place, Soepandji emphasized that the state will be able to secure and maintain all its maritime resources from various threats and take advantage of them to build prosperity.

"Maritime security will serve as the states defense system to maintain the peoples prosperity and the states independence, unity, and sovereignty," the Lemhannas chief pointed out.

According to Soepandji, Indonesia is now entering a new phase, with the presence of a leader having a maritime vision to make the country a global maritime axis.

"So, security becomes an important aspect that needs to be addressed as maritime security, particularly the nations water jurisdiction, is a deciding factor for the success of the governments development program," he added.(*)

Indonesia builds 200 ships in a year
Selasa, 20 Oktober 2015 22:25 WIB | 103 Views

Jakarta (ANTARA News) - Indonesias Minister of Transport Ignatius Jonan has said the country has built 200 ships within one year as part of the governments program to make Indonesia the worlds maritime axis.

"In one year, we have built 200 ships," Jonan said here on Tuesday.

The 200 ships included patrol boats, pioneer ships and other vessels that are required in the development of the maritime axis.

He said that the maritime axis program has been running since the beginning of the administration of President Joko Widodo, but it cannot be assessed in the near future as a lot of works are still to be completed.

"We are developing 1,241 ports. There are ports to be rebuilt and repaired, and some of the small ports are being built," he said.

Of the 1,241 ports, 112 are commercial ports managed by Pelindo (the Indonesian Port Corporations), while 1,100 ports are being managed by the Ministry of Transportation.

"I have not had time to visit all the ports. It takes at least two years time to examine them one by one. But the most important part is the construction and development of the ports which is under supervision and control," Jonan said.

For the development of the airport, the government focuses on the improvement and extension of runways, he added.

"All the runways at all airports in Indonesia will be extended, at least by 2,000 meters, in order to accommodate jet engine aircrafts," he said.

Meanwhile, the bus terminals will be built in the same mould as the stations. "If the bus terminals have the same design as the stations, the passengers will be able to comfortably travel by public transportation," the minister said.(*)
