Abstract

Indonesia is one of state as the world’s biggest supplier of seafarers is being threatened by the growing share in the development of international seafarers by other countries in Eastern Europe and Asia, particularly China. The employability of seafarers depends largely on the quality of education they have acquired and the effectiveness of training that they have undergone pursuant to the requirements of STCW’95. If the country remains complacent about the present level of competence of its seafarers, it may lose out to other countries in the global labour market competition. The Philippines has to respond to the challenges in the global maritime environment by maintaining a viable supply of well-trained mariners. To achieve that, however, will require new approaches to maritime education and training. This new MET approach should be one that affords high quality output to a great number of seafarers. In other words, it must be something that meets both the quantitative and qualitative requirements of the industry and international regulatory authorities, particularly the IMO. This new approach to MET in the Philippines could be the establishment of a Distance Learning Programme. Distance learning employing state-of-the-art telecommunications technology, IT and satellite communications system will enable the Philippine MET to train a great number of seafarers even while they are at sea without sacrificing quality

Abstract

Piracy on the high seas, both by foreign ships and by domestic vessels in international waters, has recently caused unrest for international shipping. The prosecution of the high sea piracy crime is based on the enactment of international law relating to piracy in the high seas. The problems raised in this research are how to regulate piracy on the high seas based on international law, how is the MV Jahan Moni piracy and how are the efforts to deal with piracy problems on the high seas in the case of the MV Jahan Moni ship? The research method is carried out by normative legal research or literature law research conducted by examining library materials and empirical legal research. The legal research used is normative legal research or also known as library research with secondary data collection from magazines, books, journals, newspapers, online websites, and other library documents. Based on the explanation that has been described in previous chapters, it can be concluded that the following actions are piracy in the high seas initially and generally are motivated by economic factors. However, in its development and in today's situation, the phenomenon of piracy is in the context of acts of violence in the wider high seas. This is due to the increasing possibility of the threat of acts of terrorism in the two Strait with the background of non-economic problems, where it is very possible that these actions were also carried out on the high seas, as well as ships at sea. Piracy arrangements on the high seas are based on international law, namely based on the 1982 UN Convention on the Law of the Sea.

Abstract

As a border on the island of Sumatra, the city of Batam and Natuna sea is the link between Indonesia-Singapore-Malaysia & Thailand. For all of these, safeguards are needed, especially for shipping in the territory of Indonesia, because maritime safety greatly affects sustainable development efforts, especially marine transportation activities. Batam City is included in the Riau Islands province. The Riau Islands Province is located in a very strategic location considering that it is in the border area between countries, neighboring one of the world's business centers (Singapore) and is supported by the existence of an international sea transportation network with busy traffic. In otherside, Kota Bharu and Golok River MalaysiaThailand were included in the crossing system beside the sea transportation in Batam, and South China Sea/Natuna sea. Sea transportation plays a very important role in a maritime country like Indonesia, whose territory is an archipelago. Regarding sea transportation, there are 3 aspects that are interrelated with each other, namely sea traffic and transportation facilities, ports, shipping safety and security. Act No. 17 of 2008 concerning shipping, in its general provisions states that the safety and security of shipping is a condition where safety and security requirements are fulfilled in waters, ports and the maritime environment. Therefore, all parties related to shipping activities must fulfill predetermined requirements. Through concrete steps, compliance with shipping safety and security regulations will create a high level of safety and security. Therefore, it is hoped that the guarantee of safety and security in the field of sea transportation can synergize the pattern of periodic supervision of meeting the safety and security aspects that have been determined.
