5 Foreword This book deals with a vitally important subject. As the world s largest archipelagic state, Indonesia has an immense maritime domain that encompasses much of the sea between Australia and the Asian mainland. Indonesia is itself made up largely of water. Indonesia s archipelagic and territorial waters together form about three-fifths of the country s sovereign territory. It also has a vast Exclusive Economic Zone in the Pacific and Indian Oceans and the South China Sea. Fishing, the extraction of oil and gas from offshore deposits, and shipping all make important contributions to Indonesia s economy. Indonesia s maritime domain also occupies a central place in the idea of Indonesia as a nation. In keeping with the concept of Wawasan Nusantara, vigorously promoted at various times by governments since the late 1960s, the sea, far from dividing island from island, is seen as forming an integral part of the national territory of Indonesia. It is also important to note the location of this massive maritime space at what Indonesians refer to as the crossroads. A large proportion of the world s trade in oil passes through the Malacca, Sunda, and Lombok straits on its way from the Middle East to East Asia, while the great maritime powers have long had a vital interest in maintaining as much freedom of navigation as possible in Indonesian waters. Finally, of great importance to international relations in this part of the world, Indonesia s maritime domain gives it maritime borders with a multitude of neighbours. Indeed, Indonesia has entered into agreements that define its maritime borders with Malaysia, Singapore, Vietnam, Papua New Guinea, Australia, India, and Thailand. Indonesia s maritime domain, in short, looms large whether we adopt a national, regional, or global perspective. It is for this reason that we need a study that clearly and concisely describes the extent of that domain and the different types of jurisdiction that the Indonesian government exercises within it and examines the issues that remain regarding Indonesia s maritime boundaries. This volume fulfils that need admirably. This book is a revised and updated edition of Indonesia s Maritime Boundaries.A great deal has happened since Viv Forbes published that volume in To mention just a few events, the Indonesian government designated three archipelagic sea lanes in 1996, it signed an agreement with the Australian government concerning the maritime boundary between Indonesia and Australia in the Timor Sea and Indian v
6 vi Foreword Ocean in 1997, East Timor became an independent state in 2002, the International Court of Justice awarded Sipadan and Ligatan islands to Malaysia in 2002, the threat global warming poses to Indonesia s spectacular marine environment has become more apparent, and, following the fall of the New Order in 1998, the Indonesian government began a process of decentralization that has given greater autonomy to provinces and districts. All of these events have had major implications as far as Indonesia s maritime domain is concerned and, moreover, have raised questions and tensions that have yet to be resolved. This new edition provides an up-to-date account of all these matters. It also describes the changes that the Indonesian government made to its system of archipelagic baselines in 1998, 2002 and again Seemingly of little consequence, these changes, which are in keeping with the 1982 United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, have in fact helped to expand Indonesia s maritime domain by tens of thousands of square nautical miles. All this and much more we learn from this volume. It is worth reflecting for a moment on Indonesia s history as an archipelagic state. When Prime Minister Juanda declared (the Djuanda Declaration) in December 1957, that all waters surrounding, between and connecting the islands constituting the Indonesian state...are integral parts of the territory of the Indonesian state and, therefore, parts of the internal or national waters which are under the exclusive sovereignty of the Indonesian state, he provoked a storm of protest from most of the major maritime powers. The United States, British, French, Australian, New Zealand, Japanese, and Dutch governments all condemned the declaration is a blatant grab for territory and a flagrant violation of international law. Many of these same governments protested again when the Djuanda Declaration was formally enacted in Law 4 of 1960 the act that first defined the archipelagic baselines analysed in this volume and in 1962 they condemned a regulation requiring foreign warships to notify the government of their intention to pass through Indonesian waters. By the middle of 1977, after prolonged and sometimes bitter negotiations at the third United Nations Conference on the Law of the Sea in which Indonesian diplomats played a major part, the USA and other maritime powers had indicated that they accepted the principle of an archipelagic state as long as they were guaranteed certain freedoms and rights of navigation, but the USA famously refused to sign the convention that came out of these years of negotiation because of its rejection of the regime dealing with deep-seabed mining. As it turned out, most of the other major maritime states did sign the convention. Moreover, the USA finally recognized Indonesia as an archipelagic state in 1988 in the unlikely context of a double taxation agreement. But as this historical sketch indicates, the very notion of an archipelagic state is a recent and hard won concept. It is therefore hardly surprising that so many issues remain to be resolved. From a historical point of view the wonder is that there are not even more. We the readers are most fortunate in our two guides to the complexities of Indonesia s maritime domain. Professor Viv Forbes brings to this book many decades of work as a merchant mariner, cartographer, geographer, consultant on maritime affairs, lecturer, and Map Curator. He has known many of the officials who have taken the lead in formulating Indonesia s maritime policy and negotiating agreements
7 Foreword vii with its neighbours and over the years he has contributed to countless conferences dealing with maritime issues. Viv Forbes has also produced two atlases, one in 1998 and another in 2008 on Malaysia s maritime space. Both publications, which were co-authored with Hj. Mohd Nizam Basiron illustrate not only maritime space but also marine environment, resources and infrastructure. Having benefited so much from Indonesia s Maritime Boundaries, I am delighted that this dedicated scholar gives us this new edition. I am sure political geographers, historians, and, not least, officials and political leaders dealing with maritime issues will all welcome this authoritative guide to Indonesia s maritime domain.

9 Synopsis Indonesia as an archipelagic state has maritime boundaries with as many as nine coastal neighbours; however, it possesses terrestrial boundaries with only three of these States namely, with Timor Leste on Timor Island; with Malaysia on Borneo Island and Sebatik Island; and, with Papua New Guinea on the Island of New Guinea. Indonesia s obligations and rights to determine its international maritime limits is analysed in this study. The study initially defines the geographical extent of the Republic of Indonesia and briefly overviews the cultural, economic, political and social impacts as a result of the delimitation of maritime boundaries. It then analyses the rationale employed by that state in establishing its territorial sea baseline system and undertakes a comparative geographical analysis of Indonesia s delimited maritime boundaries with its immediate neighbours. The study addresses the issues and focuses on the methodology adopted for the determination of single boundary lines that delimit the maritime jurisdiction of Indonesia. It also discusses the multi-line maritime boundaries negotiated by Indonesia with particular reference to the sharing of marine resources in those waters where sovereignty rights have not been fully established. It suggests that the potential for dispute is minimised when a political will exists to determine maritime boundaries in the national interest and demonstrates Indonesia s resolve to negotiate its maritime boundaries as a priority in strategic and economic policies. Models for resolving territorial disputes based on Indonesia s example may have application to other regions. The geographical coordinates of the defined territorial sea archipelagic base points and terminal and turning points utilised in delimiting the boundaries were plotted on large-scale charts. The azimuths and distances between these points were computed. An estimation of the areal extent of Indonesia s maritime space, based on a number of assumptions in earlier studies by the present author is provided below. ix
