1. BOBLME PROFILE
·
NAD; the existanceof Panglima Laot who regulate and control
marine custom, fish capture methods etc.
·
North Sumatera; kutuk-kutuk fishermen in Central Tapanuli:
wisdom and weakness in enforcing coral reef preservation
·

1. BOBLME PROFILE..... (CONT'D)
·
Monsoon current map: Two distinguished
direction in early and middle year affect
environmental water and the nature of bio-
geographical conditions.
·
Distinguished directions in Early and Middle: most
of fish stocks could be found mostly on the `shallow
near-shore', at the most of 100 m depth
INFORMATION NOTES:
·
Inherent productivity of coastal resources system in the Strait of Malacca and Northern Part
the Indian Ocean reduced by various activities: intensive exploitation, deforestation,
accelerated run off, sedimentation, oil pollution, sewage, pesticide and industrial pollution

II. Changes of Fisheries & Environmental
Management Policy

1. DEVELOPMENT OF LEGAL ASPECT
(OVER THE PAST 5 YEARS)
Legal Instruments Enacted:
· Act No. 31 in 2004 on Fisheries: As a basis to regulate fisheries management
· Act No. 32 in 2004 on Autonomy/Regional Government: Decentralization of
Fisheries Management
· Act No. 27 in 2007 on Coastal Management

Legal Instruments in Preparation:
1. Government Regulation on Fisheries Management
2. Etc.


2. DECENTRALIZATION OF FISHERIES MANAGEMENT
(AUTONOMY LAW NO. 32/2004)
Administrative boundary
River basin
Territorial boundary (12 mil)
ZEE boundary
Intertidal
4 mil
boundary
Picture was taken from Ginting (2004)
Central

District
Administrative Arrangement of Waters Spatial Space
based on Autonomy Law No. 32/2004




3. LICENSING ISSUES
Based on Government Regulation No. 54/2002
Issued by
Boat & Engine Size
District Government
10 GT
Provincial Government
> 10 GT and 30 GT
Central Government
> 30 GT
Note : Boat without Engine or with engine 5 GT shall be registered


4. DEVELOPMENT OF FISHERIES MANAGEMENT &
CONSERVATION AREA
Indonesian Fisheries Management Area (PERMEN KP NO. 01/2009)

5. THE ROLES OF TRADITIONAL FISHERIES
ISSUES PERTAINING TO IMPLEMENTATION OF EAFM
1. Some traditional wisdoms/Customary Laws have been
Existing in Indonesia for over the Years:
·
They are in fact able to identify and manage some ecological linkages in the forms of
protection, mitigation and rehabilitation of fish resources and their environments.
·
Some notes on anthropological proof indicated that some traditional knowledges have
applied fishery conservation scheme in preserving their resources. For examples as
stated in Relief of Prambanan Temple.
·
More than 200 customary laws existed in Indonesia. For Example Panglima Laot in Aceh
2. The Fisheries Law No. 31 in 2004 encourages the existing and
Roles of Fisheries Management.
·
After Reform Era in 1999, The Community based fisheries management regime has
been encourage
·
Today there many conservation area (KKLD) have been established in Indonesia with
acknowledgment the existing of customary laws
3. Future Undertaking of Fisheries Management should be
based on Community Approach (Considering their Traditional
Wisdomes) as Prime User of Fish Resources.

ISSUES PERTAINING TO IMPLEMENTATION OF EAFM
1. Past Activities

CLOSING: ISSUES TO BE CONSIDERED BY BOBLME PROJECT
ISSUES PERTAINING TO IMPLEMENTATION OF EAFM
1. Update Baseline Data ASAP Please!!!
·
Addressing specific problem in each different area
·
Preliminary Regional TDA & SAP should be prepared before the real
implementation of the program
·
TDA for each country focus on EEZ area. Beyond EEZ, who will be
responsible???
2. Harmonization between Regional Policy/
Initiatives and National Development of
Fisheries
·
For Example: Development of BOBLME should be consistent with
development of Capture Fisheries in Indonesia, particularly development
of Fisheries in WPP 571 & 572
