The utilization of Bouke Ami fishing gear in Indonesian waters, particularly in PPN Muara Angke, plays a significant role in managing fishery resources and increasing production. This gear is commonly used by fishermen to catch pelagic fish such as mackerel, tuna, and squid. However, the environmental friendliness of Bouke Ami fishing gear is crucial for sustainable fisheries management. While effective in catching fish, this fishing gear can negatively impact the marine ecosystem, including damage to coral reefs and the capture of juvenile fish, which affects their growth. This research aims to assess the level of environmental friendliness of the Bouke Ami fishing gear used in PPN Muara Angke. Conducted from November 2025 to January 2026, the study employed a descriptive method, using interviews and questionnaires with Bouke Ami fishermen. The findings are expected to contribute to the literature on sustainable fisheries and highlight the importance of using environmentally friendly fishing gear, in line with the Code of Conduct for Responsible Fisheries.

Indonesia is a large archipelagic country with significant fisheries potential. However, fish resources in Indonesian waters have shown a declining trend over the past decade. This decline is caused by various factors, including the deterioration of coastal environmental quality due to human activities that pollute the sea, destructive fishing practices, and excessive exploitation or overfishing. This study aims to analyze the utilization rate of bigeye tuna in FMA-NRI 573 landed at PPS Nizam Zachman and to provide recommendations for the utilization efforts of bigeye tuna in FMA-NRI 573 landed at PPS Nizam Zachman. The utilization rate of fish can be calculated by comparing the total catch to the maxmimum sustainable yield (CMSY) using the formula TPc=(Ci/CMSY)×100%TP_c = (C_i / C_{MSY}) \times 100\%TPc=(Ci/CMSY)×100%. The utilization rate obtained, with an average CMSY of 846,325, falls under the category of Lightly Exploited according to FAO and Moderately Exploited based on Ministerial Regulation KP No. 22/2021. This indicates that the utilization is still relatively low or minimal. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct a review of existing fishing regulations in order to maintain the potential sustainability of capture fisheries.

The Indonesian government has been actively combating illegal fishing practices at sea because they harm the country and reduce fish populations. However, attention to freshwater fisheries, especially endemic fish, is still limited. In fact, endemic fish play an important role in aquatic ecosystems and local culture. Fish resource conservation aims to protect, preserve, and utilize fish and their ecosystems and genetic diversity so that their existence and availability remain sustainable. The diversity of freshwater fish in Indonesia faces serious threats from human activities. The main factor is the introduction of new species that grow uncontrollably, becoming pests and harming ecosystems and communities. In addition, overfishing and declining habitat quality further exacerbate the situation. These threats pose a risk of extinction for endemic fish. Therefore, conservation efforts need to be strengthened to maintain ecosystem balance and support the livelihoods of communities that depend on fish farming. Legal protection is an important aspect in addressing this issue. Law No. 31 of 2004 concerning Fisheries and Law No. 5 of 1990 concerning Conservation of Living Natural Resources and Ecosystems have provided a legal basis for fish resource management. However, their implementation and enforcement remain weak. This study uses a normative juridical approach with secondary legal materials, emphasizing the importance of improving the legal framework and more effective governance. Measurable, transparent, and sustainable conservation measures are needed to ensure the optimal utilization of fish resources. Thus, the sustainability of freshwater ecosystems and the welfare of communities that depend on endemic fish can be guaranteed.

The fisheries sector plays a strategic role in Indonesia's national economic development due to its significant contribution to meeting food needs, creating jobs, and earning foreign exchange. However, this sector still faces various serious challenges, such as Illegal, Unreported, and Unregulated (IUU) Fishing practices, excessive exploitation of marine resources, degradation of aquatic ecosystems, and weak compliance with applicable legal provisions. These problems not only impact the sustainability of fisheries resources but also threaten the economic sustainability of coastal communities. This study aims to analyze the government's role in overseeing the fisheries sector in Indonesia, which includes regulatory and institutional aspects, and the implementation of supervision in the field. The research method used is a normative juridical approach through a review of relevant laws and regulations, including Law Number 31 of 2004 concerning Fisheries as amended by Law Number 45 of 2009, and other derivative regulations. The analysis also considers the role of supervisory institutions such as the Ministry of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries (KKP), the Indonesian Navy (TNI AL), and law enforcement officials in preventing and prosecuting violations in this sector. The research findings indicate that the government plays a strategic role in establishing policies, establishing oversight institutions, providing monitoring facilities and infrastructure, and taking legal action against violators. However, oversight effectiveness is still suboptimal due to limited human resources, monitoring technology, inter-agency coordination, and low legal awareness among fisheries business actors. Therefore, strengthening an integrated oversight system, increasing the capacity of officials, utilizing information and satellite technology, and consistent law enforcement are necessary. These steps are expected to ensure sustainable management of Indonesia's fisheries sector, protect marine resources, and support national economic growth.

This study aims to explore and analyze the implementation of internal control mechanisms within Ministries/Agencies that received a disclaimer opinion on their audited financial statements. It also examines the form of financial transparency applied by these institutions in the preparation of their financial reports. The research focuses on the role of government internal audits in two institutions: the Ministry of Marine Affairs and Fisheries and the Indonesian Maritime Security Agency (BAKAMLA), utilizing a qualitative literature synthesis approach. The research method employs a descriptive qualitative design. Based on the findings, it is concluded that the lack of supervision by internal auditors and the Supreme Audit Agency (BPK) over these two institutions stems from several factors: limited competence and capacity of internal auditors, weak internal control systems and structures, lack of auditor independence, and inadequate routine monitoring and evaluation. Furthermore, in preparing financial reports, Ministries and Agencies are required to adopt financial transparency practices by preparing financial statements in accordance with Government Accounting Standards (SAP), disclosing complete notes to financial statements, and utilizing transparent and integrated financial applications.

Natuna waters are the most vulnerable area to illegal fishing because there is abundant potential for fishery resources. It was recorded that from May to December 2016, there were 280 foreign vessels in Natuna waters, which resulted in economic losses of 2.98 trillion Rupiah. This study aims to examine and assess the policies and actions that the Indonesian government has implemented in overcoming illegal fishing activities in the area. The results of this study are that the Natuna Waters Area is part of the Indonesian Archipelago Sea Lane (ALKI) and functions as a global waterway. The Natuna Waters Area borders with neighboring countries and is connected to open waters, making it vulnerable to illegal fishing activities. The Indonesian government's strategy in dealing with cases of unlawful fishing in Natuna waters effectively increases the protection of state sovereignty and marine resources through policies such as sinking ships and maritime diplomacy. However, this implementation policy overcomes obstacles in the form of intimidation from other countries, such as China, and weaknesses in supervision and coordination between domestic institutions, which can affect microorganisms in fisheries management and maritime security in the area.

securing the waters in the Sulawesi Sea against illegal fishing in order to increase the utilization of potential maritime resources. The main point of this study is that Indonesia has very abundant maritime resources and this is what triggers illegal fishing activities, especially in the Sulawesi Sea area, both by local citizens and foreign citizens. In response to this, agencies such as the Indonesian Navy (TNI - AL), the Maritime Security Agency (BAKAMLA), the Ministry of Marine Affairs and Fisheries (KKP) and other agencies must be directly involved in these activities so that the Indonesian maritime territory and maritime resources in the Indonesian seas are not damaged and disturbed by these activities.

Reciprocal tariff changes imposed by the United States on its trading partner countries including Indonesia, create changes in export and import tariffs in Indonesia which result in a significant impact on the Indonesian economy, which has an impact on export and import sectors such as oil and gas, then non-oil and gas which includes processing industries, agriculture, forestry, fisheries, mining as well as consumer goods, raw / auxiliary materials, and capital goods. This research aims to analyze the impact of exports and imports in the country of Indonesia due to the reciprocal tax rate policy implemented by the United States. This research uses a qualitative approach with the type of content analysis, which involves collecting data from news articles, research reports, and relevant academic publications. The results showed that the imposition of reciprocal tariffs imposed by the United States against Indonesia caused an increase in imports from 2017 to 2020 by 1.38% in the consumer goods sector. On the other hand, the export side decreased in the oil and gas sector from 2017 to 2020 by 2.37% which resulted in disruption of economic stability in the global supply chain that created inflation, and increased imports in Indonesia resulted in competing local product prices with imported products so that many Indonesian manufacturing companies reduced production and terminated employment. From this research, it is expected that Indonesia will be able to maximize the opportunities that exist from the changes and challenges of global trade.

Many fishery products come from fishing and cultivation, saltwater and freshwater fisheries, so a preservation process is needed to maintain the condition of the fish so that it remains good when marketed. In addition, it can increase the economic value of fish. In the Indonesian fisheries industry, various types of preservation, including freeze drying, are drying processes using vacuum pressure and cold temperatures. The freeze-drying process utilizes the phased nature of water to convert solid (frozen) forms into water vapor (gas) at a certain pressure and temperature. The vacuum pressure used ranges from -60.3 cmHg to -71.6 cmHg, and the mass of the fish ranges from 94 grams to 136 grams. The type of research is quantitative and uses experimental methods. The result is in the form of a remaining moisture content percentage of 40% in dried fish according to SNI standard No. 827300:2023. The Respone Surface Methodology (RSM) was used to process the data in this study. From the study, the best value of vacuum pressure was -66 cmHg and mass 102.5417 with a final result of 40%.

Illegal fishing is a form of maritime crime that threatens the sustainability of marine resources and causes significant economic losses for the country, particularly for coastal communities such as those in Natuna Regency. This activity not only harms the fisheries sector but also impacts food security, social stability, and the marine ecosystem. This study aims to examine in depth the surveillance strategy implemented by the Maritime Security Agency (Bakamla) in combating illegal fishing practices in Natuna waters. The research method used is a qualitative descriptive approach with data collection through in-depth interviews and analysis of Bakamla's strategic documents. The theoretical framework used refers to the concept of strategy according to Fred R. David (2016), which includes strategy formulation, implementation, and evaluation. The results of the study indicate that Bakamla has formulated a surveillance strategy by relying on 24-hour sea patrols, utilizing technologies such as the Automatic Identification Sistem (AIS), radio communications, and satellites, and establishing cross-agency collaboration including the Indonesian Navy, the Ministry of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries, and local government officials. The strategy was implemented through rotating patrols, outreach activities for fishermen and coastal communities, and the establishment of a public reporting channel to facilitate the dissemination of information regarding illegal activities. However, the implementation of this strategy still faces obstacles, including limited operational budgets, inadequate patrol fleets, and suboptimal response to public reports. Evaluation of the monitoring strategy showed positive impacts in the form of increased public awareness and participation, as well as a decrease in cases of fish theft in several vulnerable areas. However, the level of public involvement in reporting and independent monitoring still needs to be increased so that the monitoring strategy can be more effective and sustainable in safeguarding the sovereignty of Indonesia's marine resources.  

Fishing licence (SIPI) is one of the things that must be owned by fishermen in fishing in Indonesian waters. In Article 27 paragraph (1) of Law Number 45 of 2009 concerning Fisheries, it is stated that every person who owns and/or operates an Indonesian-flagged fishing vessel used for fishing in the fisheries management area of the Republic of Indonesia and/or the high seas must have a SIPI.Dharma Tanjung Village, Camplong Subdistrict is one of the fisheries areas among the fisheries areas on Madura Island, the people in Camplong Subdistrict are known for their profession as fishermen, especially in Tanjung Village and Pandian Village. The fishing gear used are gill nets and traditional fishing rods and the factors that are thought to affect fishing production using gill net boats are fishing trips, ship engine size, amount of fuel, size of fishing gear and labour and the biggest influencing factor is the trawl gear used by fishermen in Tanjung Village. Many fishermen of Dharma Tanjung Village, Sampang who have ships with a size of 5 gross tonnes still do not have SIPI. so it is necessary to have counselling about the importance of fishermen to have SIPI.
