JAKARTA - Presidential Candidate Anies Rasyid Baswedan promised to make special regulations to manage the fisheries sector in eastern Indonesia so as to bring prosperity to small fishermen who work hard every day.

The wealth of marine natural resources in eastern Indonesia, such as in Ambon, Maluku, said Anies, must be developed in detail and consistently so that it will have a positive impact on all business actors.

"This must be accompanied by regulations that allow better development," Anies said in a written statement quoted by Antara, Monday, January 15.

When starting a campaign in Maluku through the Desak Anies program, the former Minister of Education and Culture always emphasized that the area has the potential for natural wealth, especially extraordinary fisheries.

The former governor of DKI Jakarta wants extraordinary wealthquaculture in Maluku to be developed and Ambon is one of the hubs (centrals) for this development.

The initiator of the Indonesia Teaching movement also wants more activities to increase the added value of the fisheries sector in the region.

According to Anies, fishery products are no longer raw for sale outside the region, but are already in processed form which makes the value or price higher.

By making processed products, he continued, the potential for employment will also be much so that the management of the fisheries sector can be completed from upstream to downstream.
