Indonesia faces several challenges regarding its border security and management of coastal and marine resources due to its geography as an archipelagic state. Key issues include illegal activities like fishing and logging, human and drug trafficking, and lack of coordination between relevant agencies. The government aims to address these challenges by optimizing resource use, enhancing human and technological capacity for maritime affairs, developing surveillance systems, and improving stakeholder support. Its vision is for Indonesia to become a prosperous maritime nation with secure borders and sustainable development and management of coastal and marine assets.
