- Abstract
Indonesia is designated as an archipelagic country as well as a maritime country by the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) 1982. The current government aspires to make Indonesia the world’s maritime axis country as outlined in Act No. 17 of 2005 concerning the Long-term National Development Plan 2005-2025, which emphasizes that within 20 years of implementation of development in Indonesia, one of them is aimed at realizing the strength and independence of Indonesia as an archipelagic country. The strengthening and independence of Indonesia as an archipelagic country was carried out by the Government by issuing Presidential Instruction No. 5 of 2005 concerning the Empowerment of the National Shipping Industry which regulates the consequent application of the Cabotage principle in shipping transportation to safeguard the sovereignty of the Indonesian sea territory. The application of the Cabotage principle supports the growth of the national shipping industry to realize Indonesia as a world maritime axis further regulated in Act No. 17 of 2008 concerning Shipping and Act No. 32 of 2014 concerning Marine. The research method in this journal is done by studying literature and supported by some empirical data.
