Indonesia Maritime defence and security issue

telah angkat kaki = kabur , CMIIW
Thank You, kabur in Bahasa Malaysia means "uncertain, vague, not clear". So I think kabur has slight different meaning for Indonesian and Malaysian.

I think "telah pergi, sudah tiada." is better definition. Thank you GraceDigger 388.

Indonesia has Sunk 516 Vessels Since 2014 for Illegal Fishing
Editor: Petir Garda Bhwana - 7 July 2019 11:08 WIB

TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - Since 2014, the Maritime Affairs and Fisheries Ministry has sunk 516 vessels belonging to countries in its neighborhood and even from Indonesia for conducting illegal fishing operations in its waters. These vessels numbered 294 from Vietnam, 92 from the Philippines, 76 from Malaysia, and 23 from Thailand, in addition to two from Papua New Guinea, one each from China, Nigeria and Belize, and 26 from Indonesia.

In addition, from January to June 2019, the ministry has captured 67 illegal vessels consisting of 17 from Malaysia, 15 from Vietnam, three from the Philippines and 32 from Indonesia.

"The success in capturing illegal fishing vessels is inseparable from the integrated monitoring system of air surveillance, sea surveillance and fishing vessel monitoring system (VMS)," the ministry's Acting Director General of Marine and Fisheries Resources Monitoring, Agus Suherman said in his statement Saturday.

The ministry, in collaboration with the Task Force 115, the Attorney General's Office, and other relevant agencies has also eliminated as many as 28 illegal fishing vessels based on court decisions from January to June 2019.

The figure consists of 23 vessels from Vietnam, three from Malaysia, and one each from the Philippines, and Indonesia. These and the ships that have been sunk between October 2014 and June 2019 bring the total to 516.

Earlier, the Indonesian Marine Bachelor Association (Iskindo) appreciated the agreement in the G20 Summit regarding Indonesia's initiative and leadership in combating IUU fishing.

"Although the agreement is non-binding, it will be the concern of the G20 countries in providing support for efforts to reduce the practice of IUU around the world," Iskindo's daily chairman Moh Abdi Suhufan said.

In the G20 forum which took place in Osaka Japan, on June 28 and 29, 2019, leaders of the G20 countries managed to agree on the commitment to tackle IUU fishing globally.

With such an agreement, the G20 countries would be compelled to take up the issue of IUU fishing within the framework of global cooperation.

"We appreciate the Indonesian government which in the past four years has consistently combated IUU fishing and has opened the eyes of the world on the mode, crime, impact and methods of eradicating IUU fishing through a legal approach," Suhufan emphasized.

The agreement is one of Indonesia's effort at the world level to invite other countries to protect fish resources, according to him.

Indonesia is one of the few countries in the world that has succeeded in increasing fish stocks after its crackdown on IUU fishing practices in its waters, he stressed.

Furthermore, Indonesia is considered necessary to oversee the commitment within international cooperation and program partnerships so the agreement of the heads of state can be followed up at the working level of cooperation.

Thank You, kabur in Bahasa Malayasia means "uncertain, vague, not clear". So I think kabur has slight different meaning for Indonesian and Malaysian.

It's the same but in Indonesian "kabur" has more other meanings. Depends on where you use it.

Kabur = Pergi (in a hurry/haste, without permission, running from something).

Indonesia plays determining role in global climate: LIPI
Monday, 18 November 2019

Jakarta (ANTARA) - Indonesia, lying between the Indian Ocean and Pacific Ocean, plays a role in determining the global climate, according to an Indonesian Institute of Sciences (LIPI) official.

"How we know the phenomenon of interaction between the two oceans and atmosphere is crucial knowledge in observing the climate," acting chief of the LIPI deep sea research center Nugroho Dwi Hananto stated in Jakarta on Monday.

Indonesia’s location can be used for climate anomaly analysis, such as dry season, with high-intensity rain, and rainy season, with excessive heat, El Nino, and La Nina, he remarked.

"Technically, that is about Indonesia’s role in determining the global climate," he stated.

The research to be conducted by LIPI in the waters off Java's southern coast, Bali Straits, to Makassar Strait on December 18-25 will benefit all sciences and the public, he remarked.

Moreover, the government, in this case, LIPI, has no accurate data on the El Nino and La Nina weather phenomena and climate change. Hence, in-depth research is required to observe how Indonesia’s location between the two oceans impacts the global climate, he explained.

The research on climate forecast can be conducted through the use of satellite technology. However, the result will not be as accurate as that of marine research conducted by taking real data on the field, he stated.

In the first stage, LIPI will conduct research from Jakarta to Banyuwangi on the eastern tip of Java by sailing through the Indian Ocean. The research will later be conducted in Makassar Strait and back to Java.
