UNBOXING #03 - KE LAUT AJA

So

again my generation is at

a crossroads and confused about where to go.

In agriculture, it can't be done because they

don't have the skills. Then in industry,

it's been replaced by technology.

One of the small solutions is to become a

migrant worker or TKI. I want to be in e-commerce, but

all the goods are imported. I'm

curious about the sea. Actually,

maybe there's still hope in the sea.

[Music]

[Music]

Hey, Mas Yusuf. How is there still hope

in the sea? Yes, but it's

actually quite complex, Ben.

Because let's see

what the fate of the fishermen is like, idiot. The

price of fuel has gone up. Pertalit

costs Rp. 000,000 dollars. What's wrong? There are no

goods, and the price is I,

but they often pee on diesel here. If

he sells it here, I'm

happy. This one from here goes down to the

sea. Wow, it smells. If only the camera could

record the smell,

everything is muddy. I'm blonde

this year, it's a failure. II, you know, the harvest is good,

people or

there, I don't get it often at all. Uhammad

[Music]

[Music]

The people don't

[Music]

When was the last time you ate

lobster? It seems almost 2 months ago.

hey bro w still rich he kay kay still

rich if you when Ben last ate

lobster

Eh me 5 years ago wow Okay I

2011 I think I've never eaten

it See, Genzi is indeed the most often

mentioned, adored but the most unlucky

Why is that? Even though 2/3 of

Indonesia's territory is actually ocean, it's very

paradoxical, people fish

everywhere, the territory is also large,

right Well, there are some foods like eh

shrimp lobster crab eh calamari

squid and then there are

also shellfish, they are also expensive, band like that,

why is it like this Well,

let's try to see Seafood is expensive,

fishermen are also the poorest profession

in fact in Indonesia, they are even

poorer than construction workers,

waste processing workers and

restaurant service workers, the value is up to 11% of the

poverty rate for fishermen Well, what are the

actual problems that make

fishermen poorer every year

while seafood prices are rising Well,

it's getting more expensive but the farmers

have less and less welfare, eh,

let's try to see together, actually, the

problem in the sea What are the things

that make our Fishermen

increasingly poor, Mas? Well, the first is

climate change, so

one example of the story is that when the

new Indonesian expedition, Mr.

Farid Gaban and I visited

one of the fishermen in Gunung Kidul,

he told me there that eh

pranatomoso or eh like the estimated

fishing season can no

longer be predicted, Ben, so it's like

they can't determine when the

fish will spawn, then suddenly, eh,

the waters are no longer running, as the

Javanese say, so it can't be

predicted anymore, maybe that's one

example of climate change, climate

change, that's the fact Well, it's

also in the farmers Oh, the same, Mas, yes, I Well,

then there's also number two,

environmental damage Well, Mr. Dandi Laksono,

during this expedition,

visited Dipati, where the

fishermen are, Jepara, Mas, Karimun Jawa,

Karimun Jawa and Jepara too, and Pati

too, in Karimun Jawa, there is

environmental damage because of

shrimp pond waste, so regulations or

rules for making shrimp ponds there are

not strictly regulated, in

Karimun Jawa, with This is the pond,

they know, they

know, but when we ask them, they say they have no

permits, they don't have

permits, only one has an

OSS permit, it even pollutes the

mangroves and the National Park area there,

where there are actually

many tourists and tourism, do they

rely on tourism? Tourists

come, but they can't

enjoy it because the coastline is also

damaged by shrimp pond waste.

Well, there are also barges

made of coal or barges that

carry coal from Kalimantan that

pass through Karimun Jawa National Park.

So, there is also damage to the

coral reefs, so it's also baching. Well, that's what

makes tourism in

Karimun Jawa National Park also start to

decrease, the number of people interested in it because of

environmental damage, the victims are also

fishermen, fishermen again, sir, yes, again,

so fishermen. If I'm not mistaken,

seaweed fishermen, sir, seaweed fishermen

and also fishermen, catch fish are also

affected by coral reefs and

mangroves because mangroves are

fish spawning grounds, where

fish lay eggs and grow up.

Yes, the fish are raised

there, PAUD, kindergarten to elementary school, more or less, still

in the mangroves. Junior high school has started to get a little bit

further to the middle of the high school, it's also getting further

to the middle, just like if

the coral reef is damaged, the coral reef fish are

also lost G yes, it's damaged well by

the barge ee The second one is also ee climate change makes the sea water temperature rise and that also causes bleaching or whitening in the coral where the coral is also damaged, divers have to listen when divers talk, we have to listen ng Okay, let's continue, well, this is another one,

Mas, the price of energy or fuel is

increasing, Mas, So, for example, it

means the cost of going to sea is getting

bigger Well, that, Mas, is also

supported by the problem because the position

was damaged, for example, if the fishermen's

coast is damaged, the coral is damaged, it

means they have to go further, Mas,

to go to sea Well, after going further, it

means their

production costs are also getting higher because

the cost of BPM is also increasing, G diesel

or petrol that they use,

so the fishermen are getting more and more pressured, Mas,

there's also the issue of

fishing gear Well, maybe Mas Dandi, who

experienced the problem, can directly tell you

how, what are the regulations regarding

this fishing gear, Mas, I joined

Kapalantrang, yes,

Diti Laut Jawa jadiru because earlier it was

like a vicious circle, so because

the coast was damaged, fishermen were getting further out to the

center and that meant they needed more fuel

to be able to recoup their investment, the catch

had to be bigger or more in order to

catch more and

more. The fishing gear had to be bigger

so then they were tempted to go into

fishing gear like

canantrang or trol or tiger trawl

so they would be able to scrape

everything from the seabed to cover

production costs so it was a vicious circle

triggered by environmental damage on

the coast and also in the sea which

then with fishing gear like

canrang, the

environmental damage would be even bigger and the

fish would be even rarer so that

tomorrow the canrang would be even bigger

[Music]

so I didn't stop the talrang

at that time because it was impossible for

them, they were only allowed to fish 20

miles from the coastline of Java and that was

enough to help, let alone if it stopped.

Well the problem is why should crang be

banned, at most it's as big as

my arm, maybe even bigger than

my small arm, the crang boat has a

radius of 2000 m, the

big one is on average 6000 m. Well if it's

only 6000 or 2000 m, it will go into the hook can it

float, float, no, it's

impossible, well, while the Java Sea is

only 60

m deep, it must reach the

bottom, which is 2000 m long, that's the

siping area because the sea is only 60 m

deep, it immediately becomes a

circle, circles are pulled, you

gentlemen, you know, the

Javanese chain is now flat because it's

continuously trawled, Gar samaantrang, so it's like a

ceramic floor, already

below that, it's flat, Pantura lost its crabs,

Pantura lost its

shrimp, shrimp city

from 1 to 2005, the government at that time, in

2001, there was a minister who

allowed foreign fishing vessels to buy

fishing permits in Indonesia, that was the

beginning of the destruction of Indonesian fisheries,

so it was like a race with the

damage, responded to with even

more destructive methods,

but yes, this is only part of the story

because the biggest part is actually the

policy on land, not

just at sea, yes, sir, yes, so why is it that the

existing policy in

this series can actually damage the

marine ecosystem, well, at that time we were in

Banyuwangi, yes, sir, yes, so there is a

mountain there called Mount Tempang

Pitu, let's see Together,

how is the condition of Mount Tempang Pitu

now?

In the past, this was the

highest, this was the

highest, but now only this is left, the highest,

even this is

now Le shorter, shorter

than this, so it's gone, how many

hundreds of meters up this mountain, so what's

gone is the one on the left, the one on the left,

what's gone, even though the mountain on the

left is the

highest, eh, the seven clusters, the mountain is

the highest, but now it's the

same, low,

low. Well, that was Mount Tumang, that was

Mr.

Morsono. He also admitted that

his fish catch is

decreasing day by day

because the bay where he catches

fish is affected by sedimentation from mining. Yes,

this is Mount Tumang, that's a

gold mine, right? Yes, a gold mine, so

it used to be a protected forest, but

then it was opened for mining, and

because it was opened, sedimentation into the sea,

mudflow into the sea was big and that

killed the ecosystem in the sea, so the

fish are gone. Well, in the past, Mr. Mat

Darsono was a fisherman from Pancer Harbor.

Until now, but eh, the

fish commodity continues to decrease, like before, which

could reach hundreds of tons every day,

now even 1 ton is not even reached, right?

Yes We have recordings of

empty fish warehouses in Tumbang

Pitu So if he tells the usual story, ee

dozens of trucks are lining up to

take fish now, even the field

can be used for eating, playing football

or badminton, and so on Yeah, but

actually, what is it that

this land policy has such an impact on the

marine ecosystem or marine regulations Well,

that's just an example in Java with the scale of

gold mining like Tumbang Pitu in

Sulawesi Sulawesi and Maluku Sulawesi

and Maluku Halmahera, there is ee

aggressive expansion of nickel mining, yes

downstream H, this is the nickel downstreaming product The champion

of

government programs Our government [

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

then what will come that we will soon

face is the geothermal and

nickel bonana because 40% of the world's geothermal reserves

are in Indonesia and eh what is

called the energy transition

is one of them is including

geothermal as eh what is the main energy

then then there is the transition eh

electric vehicles, yes, which is actually a

transition that is wrong because the

momentum of this nickel Bonanza should be used

to revolutionize our transportation from

private to public based but what is

done with

this electric vehicle is changing

private gasoline-based vehicles into

other private vehicles based on eh

batteries and the batteries are still

being used using coal so the Double

Impact that will occur coal in

Kalimantan will not decrease because it is

still used to charge vehicles

while Sulawesi Halmahera Obi

is used up for Nik so this is a

wave of ecological economy and and

human rights tragedy that we will soon

face in the coming years

whoever the president is so policies on

land that damage the sea Yes that is one

of them not only mining but

policies that allow

[Music]

exploitation or

excessive extraction of natural resources instant

extraction will definitely damage the

sustainability or existence of the

fish themselves

eh when we

transition energy and take advantage of

this nickel boom we should be directed to

change the transportation pattern from

public from private to public so that it is

public transportation that becomes the

solution public transportation that is electric

eh much more

in the context of the energy transition reducing

congestion saving economic costs

saving time and EE maintaining

public health from pollution and all sorts of things

that are much more significant than

just replacing private

gasoline-based vehicles with electric vehicles

other personal based on electricity and

nickel which in fact also still

uses coal so there is one problem

now, right, eh, what is nickel

used for, eh, electric batteries, right,

even though now

actually a new technology has emerged, ee,

electric batteries that don't need to use

nickel, so we are like, eh, what are

we like,

ee, chasing something that actually

ends up being fat, murgana, and now

nickel prices are falling, right, because we are

overexploiting and compared to other countries, our

nickel reserves are not that great, we are also still behind

Russia, Canada, and the

Philippines, we are also similar,

so

we are not richer in nickel, but we are

easier to sell nickel and

easier to mine, that's what happened, well,

even recently, hydrogen cars were developed,

so people are increasingly

open, there are many options, there are

lithium, there are sodium, so all

kinds of people are heading towards

battery technology, right?

Actually,

this energy transition misunderstanding also occurs,

eh, in coal, not only the mistake

from coal to nickel, but also from

coal to geothermal, this is

another energy transition mistake that we

found, eh, during the investigation

[Applause]

[Music]

they are looking for a way in their tight spot

they push us and hold us We are

women I pseudo

don't finance PT geodipa if the

World Bank finances PT geodipa it means the

World Bank is killing us

here l people died and 22 others

were treated due to a leak in the

Marapi geothermal drilling well in

Mandiring Natal, North Sumatra one

person died and five others were injured

after a natural gas well pipe in the

flooded Gigi Negara exploded

[Music] [

Applause]

[Music]

[Music]

I want to invite as the regent of

Terenggalek far from obstacles

far away

dareng

[Music]

as soon as I become my butiob

[Music]

said perer

become Regent is something like that lahk

become Regent why not iso saapik

easy words to stick

gabrus because when I first

met them I

only had one hope why people

like them don't sit in the

legislature make policies why do

n't they sit in the executive so we

encourage we pray that it will be more

useful not only through

their films but a when passing

his policies I pray the most

I have friends like

him who are critical from within then

now I am in the framework of

compiling the RBJPD

Regional Long Term Development Plan

I wrote a vision that might be torn apart So

Ma'am I 2045 Ma'am

Susi Mr. Busro Mr. Regent I wrote

that 2045 vision of Trenggal is to become a

net Zero carbon City

by 45 and now

I am doing eh

carbon

stock measurements so we measure it in the forest We

can actually capture carbon

How many kilos or matrix tons then the

mangrove that I have on the coast

which is about 600 hectares can

reach how much then now

I am transplanting turumbuk Coral

because the hotter the earth is Sir Madam in

shallow waters if I'm not

mistaken Mrs. Su that if it gets hotter

our corals will bleach

if the corals are baching from the heat

become white-white l Sir the corals are

dead white-white yes the fish

there don't feel comfortable there is no food there is no

place and so and now we

start to tanok later all

How much is calculated then

how much is the household activity Well, because now we

have a goal like that, it

locks the extractive activities

in Trenggalek Regency. One

of them is what is the gold mine? The

mining sector, ladies and gentlemen,

does not create any jobs

at all, what creates

damage. I desperately reject that.

Now, even though they have a

concession until

2030, almost until 2030,

they cannot operate because

we have already held them for 3 years, they cannot

operate. The condition is that after 3

years, they must take care of the AMDAL, an

analysis of the environmental impact. The

condition is only an environmental permit from the Regent.

Then, understand Regent Angel, they are

not stupid. Ladies and gentlemen, the

Australian company is now taking care of the gold mining permit

as an

MSME, what do you think? Because in the

Omnibus Law, there is a

risk-based permit, if the MSME

can self-declare in the OSS, they can

self-declare for their environmental permit,

so they don't need to make a permit. So

now they are included, so what

can I do? What can I do

now?

If they bring in heavy equipment,

even if their opponent is the

army? or police but this is the army S

police are my friends all of this if

beheaded But if possible drop the

others I'd rather be the Regent of Melok

demonstrate with the community because

there is no police

Sir become the Regent Naho Then

the area may be knocked down I'm good

respected by people but tomorrow

how will I be accountable

then I'm very grateful that Trenggala is

considered what A region that is still

underdeveloped no investors want to

come I'm grateful there Finally

I found the path of the people's economy well what do

we have ourselves when

we arrived in Flores or places e

geothermal development in Sumatra and

in Java too

we finally saw that e indeed It

seems

e what this energy must be done

in participatory ways ee This means

that people in places e

places where the state takes energy in

that place must involve the community

so e the community doesn't feel what does

n't feel abandoned because e

doesn't feel that he was only taken UNT

his place for natural resources

while he feels

Left behind what is it called then the third

is then the second is the decision is

all in the community So do

they want their place to be used as an

exploitation area for ee clean energy development

which is said to be clean or not just involve the

community maybe this

will minimize conflicts in the

field

then the third is can we or can we or can we

take energy from local sources for local sources

so what energy is closest to the

residents there? In

my place, for example, in Sumba, when there is

wind energy, can we or can

we utilize that energy? So what is

called energy decentralization

is adjusted to local resources, such

as water or wind or even

ocean waves? Next is a

small scale and not centralized, so

how can this energy be built

in villages that really need it?

So if, for example, in Flores, they

need geothermal energy for their

own village, let them

determine the scale themselves.

How big is it because the

environmental impacts that need to be taken into account, there are

environmental impacts that we need to pay

more to get it. A

large scale like that, the last is

community ownership, so it would be

better if

these energy ownership concepts are not capitalized by the

state, for example, but given to

residents who will manage it, who will

maintain all

environmental aspects, social aspects in

it, like that, so it is really

given to the community, which

can be in the form of

various fields, such as cooperatives,

for example. It could happen like

that, so I think those are the

notes that need to be considered

when you want to build an energy

Our new renewable energy is already quite dizzy

discussing job opportunities in

several sectors in e-commerce,

90% of goods are imported, in the

industrial sector we have to compete with

foreign workers and

robotics technology in agriculture, it's really hard to

find land, we thought about the

Marine and Fisheries industry, it seemed like

there was hope, but it turned out not to be

possible, Ben and I need to travel

further and look for

job opportunities in the

tourism industry, how does it feel to live in a

homestay for people who live in the West,

their culture is taken, their customs are

not respected because there is no awareness,

people who travel just travel,

now the important thing is that I pay, I

want to make whatever I want [Music
