- Abstract
LIPI Oceanographic Research Center reveals that only 35% of Indonesia's coral reefs are classified as very good. While 27.18% were classified in good condition, 37.25% were in adequate condition, and 30.45% were in bad condition. the last half century of coral reef degradation in Indonesia increased from 10% to 50%. Even some fisheries areas in Indonesia already face symptoms of overfishing for several important commodity groups, such as large pelagic, small pelagic, shrimp, and demersal fish. Ironically, small fishermen who feel the impact of the threat of scarcity of fisheries. This research is a study using the socio legal research approach. Socio legal research approach means that there are two aspects of research. First, legal research aspects, and second, socio research. The Indigenous Community Participation Model in Tackling Illegal Fishing in the Selaru Island of West Southeast Maluku namely through the sasi customary law model, Sasi Laut only applies to superior strategic commodities of the sea that have high economic value. Thus, the community is free to engage in fishing activities in the Sasi Sea region by the requirement not to use fishing gear that damages sea areas such as fish bombs, cyanide, and fish (electric) stingers. In upholding illegal fishing through customary sasi law, indigenous peoples have a very important role in upholding the implementation of sea sasi, indigenous peoples form customary institutions, namely 1) through the church, 2) Customary parties, in this case represented by soa petuanan authority holders at sea, and 3) Village government.
