Abstract

The Malacca Strait, together with the Singapore Strait, are two of the most important straits in the world and consequently there is significant traffic through them, reported to be approximately 60,000 vessels a year. The rising number of violent and well-coordinated attacks on transiting ships in these straits has become a very serious problem, such as threats of unauthorized boarding; theft of personal property, cargo and the ships themselves; and violence against, and the kidnapping or murder of, seafarers. One effort which is likely to enhance security in the Malacca Straits is the establishment of 'joint patrol areas', where more than one of the three littoral states will have the right to patrol and arrest persons and vessels where there is an incident of piracy. Extra regional assistance is also necessary to suppres and prevent piracy and maritime terrorism in the Malacca Strait, however the proposal by the United States to deploy its troops to help with patrolling these straits may violate the national soverignty of the three littoral states. Therefore, the foreign assistance given by the major user states should be given in other forms such as providing more advanced technology for combating piracy and terrorism, training for personnel who patrol the Malacca and Singapore straits and sharing intelligence information to prevent piracy and maritime terrorist attacks.

Abstract

Sanitary and Phytosanitary Measures (SPS) Agreement as a globally-accepted legal document within the World Trade Organization (WTO) is very important in ensuring food traded across the boundaries is safe for consumers and also protecting animal and plant from diseases and pests. Therefore, SPS Agreement's role within the international trade is very crucial. This paper evaluates "Indonesia-China candy case" that closely related to the implementation of the SPS Agreement. It is concluded that Indonesia as a member of WTO has declared and proven that Indonesia national regulations on food safety comply with international standard. On the other hand, China should show its compliance with international standard, or in case it has other standard that considered better than international standard China obliges to proof it's scientifically better and accepted. This paper argues that harmonization as a core principle found in the SPS Agreement should be considered by all states in enacting their national regulation on food safety.

Abstract

In its position as sovereign state, the possession of definite territory is a must for Indonesia; as a consequence of its status as an archipelagic state therefore Indonesia has the responsibility in determining the border of its territory in map forms with sufficient scale in affirming its position. In the year 1987, Government of Indonesia submitted a list reporting the increasing amount of island from 13.667 to 17.508 when attending United Nations Conference on Standardization of Geographical Names (UNCSGN) in Montreal, Canada. At that time, United Nations responded in asking Indonesian Government to submit list of the islands to United Nations. Based on December 2007 data, reported that, from 17.504 islands scattered all around, only 6900 islands has name standardization in accordance with international standard. While the rest around 10.600 islands without standardization name which internationally recognized. The paper is aimed to raise the urgency of name standardization for Indonesia’s islands in accordance with the rules of international law and the Indonesian Government’s efforts in standardizing islands names in Indonesia. It is concluded that the efforts in standardization of island names in Indonesia ought to do, so that the remaining islands that become the part of Republic of Indonesia territorial sovereignty has an international recognition. Though there are few constraints faced by the Indonesian government in conducting islands names standardization in Indonesia, such as: lack of coordination between relevant authorities, various numbers of tribes and local languages and limited funds.
