Abstract

This study is to determine how the implementation of the use of forms of freedom in the high seas according to the 1982 Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS 1982) and how the exceptions to freedom in the high seas according to the 1982 Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS 1982) The research method used in this research is to use normative legal research methods and it can be concluded that: 1. Regulations regarding the high seas are contained in Part VII Article 86 to Article 120 of the 1982 Convention on the Law of the Sea. Each country is granted both a coastal country and a non-coastal state given the right and freedom to utilize the high seas. The freedom of the state on the high seas is freedom in accordance with Article 87, namely freedom of navigation, flight, installing submarine cables and pipes, freedom to build artificial islands and other installations, freedom to catch fish, and freedom to carry out scientific research. Every country can take advantage of every given freedom, but every country is obliged to protect and utilize the high seas for peaceful purposes for the survival of humans. 2. In addition to providing freedom to use the high seas, the 1982 Law of the Sea Convention provides exceptions to these freedoms. Where every country is free to take advantage of the high seas but is not allowed to commit illegal acts or violate laws, both national and international laws, which in its application are often violated by countries in the world. There are several exceptions to the freedom of the high seas, such as the prohibition on slavery, piracy, trafficking of narcotic drugs and psychotropic substances, instant chase, illegal broadcasting, and pollution of the marine environment. Therefore, every country, both coastal and non-coastal countries, is obliged to cooperate in eradicating all forms of abuse of freedom on the high seas.

Abstract

Sea transportation as part of the national transportation system needs to be developed in order to realize an archipelago insight that unites all regions of Indonesia, including the archipelago seas as a national territory unit. The development of sea transportation must be able to drive Indonesia's development. Sea transportation makes a huge contribution to the world economy where the transportation of goods is the most important part of the sea transportation business where more than seven billion tonnes of goods are sent by sea every year. The effectiveness of shipping operations will reduce operating costs which will have a big impact on both consumers and transportation service providers themselves. It should be noted that the contribution of sea transportation is becoming increasingly important because the value of the costs incurred is the smallest when compared to the cost of land or air transportation. In addition, efficiency in the transportation and distribution process is one of the important things because the proportion of transportation costs can reach 66% of the total logistics costs. Considering the geographical condition of Indonesia as the largest archipelagic country in the world and two-thirds of its territory is water, Indonesia needs a large enough mass sea transportation to support the distribution of goods and to mobilize passengers. An effective and efficient transportation system that is integrated between transportation modes is essential to create a reliable and dynamic national distribution pattern. It cannot be denied that sea transportation in an archipelagic country such as Indonesia has become the main backbone of the movement of large-scale distribution of goods using ships. From an economic and business perspective, the use of transportation by ships is more effective and has great benefits. So that with the existence of marine transportation infrastructure for moving goods from one place to another, it is hoped that the economic activities of the community will be followed by a positive impact in improving the economy of a region.

Abstract

The problem of sea transportation on Panjang Island, Batam City, is that it is inadequate for marine transportation such as a lack of safety buoys, excessive passenger capacity, and the absence of passenger safety insurance so that it greatly threatens the safety of passengers and is troubling for parents whose children are studying across the board. The purpose of this study is to determine the marine transportation services in Panjang Island, Batam City in the framework of governance, and to determine the characteristics of good governance in sea transportation services in Panjang Island in the framework of good governance. This type of research is qualitative descriptive, then analyzed qualitatively, namely by data reduction analysis techniques, data presentation, and drawing conclusions (verification). Research location in Panjang Island, Sijantung Subdistrict, Galang District, Batam City. There were 9 research informants and 1 person as the key informant. The theory used in this research is the theory of good governance, namely the public government and the private sector. The results of this study indicate that sea transportation services on Panjang Island move due to the interaction of the three actors involved first, the government, namely the Department of Transportation which provides safety equipment and the Education Office as an actor involved in providing transportation assistance for Panjang Island students who are passengers. Second, the private sector, namely the owner of sea transportation, which provides sea transportation. Third, the people of Panjang Island as passengers and connoisseurs of sea transportation services. If seen from the principles of good governance, the responsiveness of the government already exists but it is not sustainable and there is no supervision from the government and community participation is still very low so that their aspirations are not conveyed to the government and transportation facilities owned by the private sector are also not effective and efficient for used as a means of public transportation. The conclusion of this study is that the interaction of the three actors involved in sea transportation services on Panjang Island has not been running according to good governance so that sea transportation is not suitable for public transportation because it threatens the safety of passengers or connoisseurs of sea transportation services.

Abstract

With the demands of seafarers' standards set by the International Maritime Organization (IMO). Global seafarers, including those from Indonesia, must follow the terms and conditions of the 2010 Manila Amendment Standards of Training, Certifitation and Watchkeeping (STCW). The competence of fishing vessel crews is one of the main factors supporting the success of fishing operations. Mastery of crew competence is proven by competency certificates obtained through education and training as well as certification tests for fishing vessel crews by the competent authority. Competency standards for fishing vessel crews must be in accordance with the size of the vessel (vessel length and gross tonage) and the area of the fishing operation. This study aims to examine the gaps that occur between the competency certificates of fishing vessel crews and the prevailing laws and regulations in Indonesia and the contributing factors. Research has been carried out on ships with a size of more than 30 GT at the Nusantara Pelabuhan Ratu Fishery Port and Nizam Zachman Muara Baru Fishery Port, Jakarta. Primary data is obtained from documentary evidence of the crew (BST, Seaman's Book, Ankapin, Atkapin, SKK) who were on the ship. Secondary data were obtained from the ship's crew license, SPB, size of the ship (length and GT), the area of fishing operations and the prevailing laws and regulations on fishing vessel manning in Indonesia. Data processing was carried out using descriptive analysis methods with a qualitative approach. The results showed that the majority of Indonesian fishing vessel crews do not have competency certificates according to applicable regulations. This is due to the dispensation of SPB issuance and the limited time for conducting the certification test. The authorities must firmly determine the deadline for the dispensation of SPB issuance and increase the time and place for certification testing that is easily accessible to the crew.

Abstract

The issuance of a Sailing Approval Letter is a process of supervision carried out by the Harbormaster of a ship leaving the port to ensure that the ship, ship crew and cargo have technically fulfilled the requirements of shipping safety and security as well as protection of the maritime environment. The approach method used in this research is juridical empirical and the research specification used is descriptive analytical. Data collection techniques used in this study are through interview and documentation guidelines. The result of this research is that the responsibility of the harbormaster is very heavy in ensuring the safety and security of shipping because the harbormaster is a government official at the port who has the highest authority to carry out and supervise the fulfillment of statutory provisions to ensure shipping safety and security. Understanding of the requirements for safety and security of shipping is a condition where safety and security requirements are met with regard to water transportation, ports, and the maritime environment.

Abstract

All users of sea transportation in Indonesia in particular and in the world in general, always prioritize safety and security issues, which are then followed by aspects of affordable costs, speed and timeliness, and aspects of comfort.The occurrence of ship accidents such as drowning, burning, etc. are issues related to the safety and security of marine transportation. For the implementation of this sailing safety improvement, the Directorate General of Sea Transportation has issued policies in the prevention of ship accidents such as making shipping announcements about improving shipping safety supervision for passenger ships, making announcements about marine weather conditions in Indonesia such as telegrams regarding bad weather readiness at sea.This study aims to analyze maritime safety and security policies in supporting the marine transportation system. This study used a descriptive method, because the data were collected in the form of words, pictures, and not numbers. The data comes from interview scripts, field observations/notes, Focus Group Discussion, videotapes, photos, notes or memos, and other official documents. Data analysis using ethical and emic approaches and triangulation processes. Determination of informants using purposive technique. Research results: Sea transportation in Indonesia has not been optimally developed, but has a strong potential to be developed, given its characteristics that are capable of mass transportation. Therefore, the safety and security system is a key factor that must be considered and as a basis and benchmark for decision makers.Government policies in the maritime sector, both the fishing industry and the shipping industry have not been implemented consistently in accordance with the applicable law. So far, the development of maritime potential has been hit by structural problems, and there has been no national political awareness of how great this economic, fishery and maritime potential is. Mas little is known about the potential content of Indonesia's marine resources, thus opening the door for various researches and development of such biodiversity.

Abstract

Indonesia is an archipelago whose land area is separated by a very large area of water, so the role of sea transportation is very important in connecting all regions in Indonesia. The function of sea transportation is basically to transport passengers or goods from one place to another which is separated by water areas. With the existence of sea transportation, it can help create a national distribution pattern. However, to achieve this, an effective, efficient and safe marine transportation system is needed. The movement or movement of passengers and goods is the basis for trade. Through sea transportation, raw materials and goods produced from one area can be marketed to other regions. Indonesia,Shipping in inland waters is one of the oldest transportation for people and/or goods which is economical and environmentally sound and for inland areas it may be the only mode of transportation for access to markets and other social activities. The modes of transportation can range from bamboo rafts to motorized boats that can operate in small rivers, lakes to large rivers.In this case using qualitative descriptive method. Descriptive research is the basis of all research. Data collection was done by using literature study method. Search for literature that supports research both from books and journals related to the research topic being carried out.

Abstract

The development of transportation is currently developing very rapidly, this is in line with the human need for transportation which is increasingly complex. Transportation is the transfer of goods or people from one place to another using a vehicle driven by a machine or human power. Transportation is useful for making it easier for humans to carry out their daily activities. With the development of technology in the field of transportation, humans are greatly facilitated by the many means of transportation such as ships that can travel long distances in a short time. Shipping goods by ship is very cheap when compared to other types of transportation. Ships have the ability to transport goods in very large quantities. The characteristics of goods sent by ship are the types of goods that can last a long time, in very large quantities. Also supported by the existence of facilities and infrastructure that are developing as it is now that makes it easier to transport, transfer goods or people from one place to another. There are facilities that support transportation that can be used. Such a port can be used as a berth for ships that will transport and move goods or people. The port is also a gateway to enter a certain area and as a connecting infrastructure between regions, between islands, and even between countries. Also supported by the existence of facilities and infrastructure that are developing as it is now which makes it easier to transport, transfer goods or people from one place to another.

Abstract

There are many tourism objects in Anambas Islands Regency, namely in the form of beach tourism, nature tourism, underwater tourism, historical tourism, as well as cultural and educational tourism, but their utilization is not optimal. The main obstacle faced is the limited condition of facilities and infrastructure both to go to tourist objects and to locations of tourist objects, and the low capacity of community resources in tourism activities. If the tourism sector develops, it will certainly encourage overall regional economic growth, therefore the tourism potential of this area needs to be maximally utilized, so that it becomes one of the backbone of the economic development of the Anambas Islands region. Meanwhile, one of the supporting factors for tourism activities that need to be developed is sea transportation facilities for tourist transportation which are not yet available. This research begins with the identification of problems through secondary data followed by field observations and then evaluated. From the results of the analysis, it can be concluded that for the suitable facilities to be developed is the Catamaran type fast boat, while for land transportation infrastructure it needs to be improved, especially those that go to tourist objects. In addition, transportation nodes at seaports need to be developed, including tourism information centers and the active involvement of local.

Abstract

Makassar City is one of the world's cities in the Eastern Indonesia Region. As the capital city of South Sulawesi Province, it should have adequate transportation facilities and infrastructure to support the continuity of economic growth in the Eastern Indonesia Region. The density of land transportation modes is increasingly not controlled by the growth rate of vehicles. This was not supported by road construction, resulting in congestion on city roads. Seeing the polemic that has occurred in the city of Makassar regarding congestion, it is necessary to conduct a more in-depth study of the policy making implemented by the city government. Congestion in land transportation modes is one of the obstacles to the rate of economic growth in developing cities, not only in Makassar but in other cities as well. One of the solutions to overcome congestion that occurs in big cities is to develop other, more economical modes of transportation. The development of inland water transportation is one alternative to divert land transportation modes that are problematic with congestion. One of the supporting factors for the development of inland water transportation modes is when there is a traffic jam on the road.
