CONCERNS Finding effective ways to identify, locate and protect Indonesian FV. crews outside Indonesia water, require inter-agencies cooperation in national level and effective international cooperation. Build close cooperation with crews destination countries, to identify, locate and protect Indonesian Fv. Crews. Experience of GOI in arresting transnational illegal fishing vessels, which involve Indonesian FV. Crews, should be treated as an entry point to disclose the modus operandi of the VoTs case in the fishery business (FV. Hua Li 8, FV. Viking, FV. Jiin Horng No. 106) Duplication/overlapping authorities in national level to handle overseas seafarers should be first solved. Government action to promote special legislation to protect workers at sea in addition to the existing labor law which orientates to regulate land base workers, should be seriously taken.

SUMMARY Fishery business should develop and implement Human Rights Protection Policy within Companies and to report human rights condition regularly to the regulator and public. Using human rights prerequisite prior to license issuance (license to catch, transport and set up the business). Raising awareness of the enforcement and port officers on typology and modus operandi of human rights abuses in the fishery business. Building awareness and increasing understanding of the consumers of the importance of human rights friendly seafood product. Human rights record in the fishery business should be a part of the database in national level, Interpol and FAO/IMO Global Fishing Vessel Record. Promoting national multi traceability policy before the catched fishes entering national and international market (food safety, IUUF and human rights traceabilities), is essential. Promote close and effective international cooperation for anti-trafficking law enforcement and prosecutions (bilateral or multilateral agreements to overcome barriers due to different jurisdiction and legal system through evidence sharing, testimonial admission and database collaboration) Enforce legal responsibilities of flag states (article 94, UNCLOS 1982), i.e. optimizing the role of ITLOS and promoting the idea of Regional Convention against IUUF and its Related Crimes as dispute settlement court. Promoting fisheries crime as Transnational Organized Crime (TOC). Indonesia, Norway, UNODC and like minded country, lead the global advocacy to work transnational organized fisheries crimes Cooperation with non-governmental organizations, other relevant organizations and other elements of civil society to identify VoTs, facilitate appropriate housing, Counselling, remediation and repatriation process and training opportunities pors repatriation.
