Indonesia Maritimes Regulation #51500900
Description
The fisherman was on the boat at Muncar Beach, Banyuwangi, East Java, Indonesia. The ministry of Maritime and Fisheries forbids the fishermen affected by trawl prohibition, arguing the rules exist to benefit the environment and would not harm small fishermen. Maritime and Fisheries Minister Susi Pudjiastuti said if the ministry provides such compensation, she would violate a 1980 presidential regulation that bans trawling and could be charged by the CorruptionEradication Commission (KPK). The government will instead provide soft-loan facilities to assist fisherman in financing their operations.
