JAKARTA - The Ministry of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries (KKP) said that entrepreneurs who want to take advantage of small islands must have permits from the KKP.
If this is not fulfilled, employers will be fined up to 250 percent.
Director of Handling Violations of the Directorate General of Marine and Fishery Resources Supervision (PSDKP) KKP Teuku Elvitrasyah said there was a change in the calculation of the fine formulation for violations of fishing vessels and businesses on small islands.
This is stated in Government Regulation (PP) Number 28 of 2025 concerning the Implementation of Risk-Based Business Licensing.
For example, for fishing vessels, Teuku said, the imposition of administrative fines on old regulations has several factors in its calculations, such as the size of ships, how many days of violations, types of fish, the effectiveness of fishing gear to the price of fish benchmarks.
"If you look at Article 365, it is stated that the imposition of administrative fines for violations, for example, does not have business licensing or Business Licensing to Support Business Activities (PB UMKU). In this case, the company does not fulfill it, it is only multiplied by the GT ship'," said Teuku on the Bincang Bahari agenda entitled "Reformation of Business Permits for the Marine and Fisheries Sector through PP 28/2025 at the KKP office, Jakarta, quoted Thursday, July 17.
Untuk pemanfaatan pulau-pulau kecil, kata Teuku, harus memenuhi beberapa persyaratan, termasuk mengantongi izin dari Persetujuan Kesuaihan Kegiatan Pemanfaatan Ruang Laut (PKKPRL).
Previously, the regulation only allowed business business actors to business licenses.
Meanwhile, in a new regulation issued on June 5, business actors must have a permit from the KKP.
"For small islands, there must be confirmation permits first. So, there are several sums, no longer PKKPRL, that confirmation continues to appear. So, there is that first, then the PKKPRL will be published. Later, if that has been done, there will be an imposition for the calculation formulation to change, including for PMA with PMDN in the calculation there will be changes," Teuku explained.
In Article 359 paragraph 3 point a, it is stated that the use of coastal and territorial waters of small islands that do not meet or do not have PB and/or PB UMKU administrative fines are imposed as stipulated in government regulations that regulate the types and rates of PNBP types that apply to ministries that are in charge of administering government.
Pada poin b, pemanfaatan pulau-pulau kecil, dalam rangka Penanaman Modal Asing (PMA) yang tidak memiliki rekomendasi merupakan persyaratan persetujuan KKPR dikenakan denda administrasi sebesar 250 persen dikali luas pelanggaran (hektare) dikali tari rekomendasi.
This applies to the use of small islands under 100 square kilometers.
"Actually, our function here is not merely to do as much business as possible without seeing any economic protection. That's why it was confirmed for PKKPRL," he explained.
