Abstract

In 1980 the Indonesian government imposed a ban on trawling along the Malacca Straits and off the north coast of Java, the nation's two most important fishing grounds. The ban on trawling was extended nation-wide in 1981, effectively eliminating a highly productive type of fishing gear and the most important source of shrimp for the lucrative international market. The political nature of this decision and factors contributing to what has proven to be effective enforcement are discussed.
