Asia. The premise of the project relates to social (crime, welfare, illegal fishing, corruption) & the geopolitical constructs of marine crime and the focus potentially relates to the vying of world powers over control of trade routes, the role of ASEAN, US, China, India, Malaysia, Singapore and Indonesia. Country Soveriegnty etc In argument my research is based on the function that piracy is not as much as an issue for Indonesia as for example illegal fishing, LNG trade while that the number of incidents in the region and the value of loss does not warrant such a focus and debate as is regularly noted in both press and intellectual papers. Further that the focus in support of prevention methods need to influence the social economical stability of the S.E.A region specifically in Indonesia. That pressure for ratification of ASEAN Charters and country initiatives will not be achieved unless support is recognised that illegal fishing and other crime poses more pressing problems for Indonesia. I have read your Nationalism and Sea Piracy Article (2006) with interest. I am currently staying in Batam (working) while also researching my thesis. I would welcome any advice you could provide in relation to my thesis as well as consider providing me with details of contacts in Batam (or other) who I could contact considering: 1. Marine Crime 2. Marine Authority involement etc 3. Illegal Fishing 4. Social Impact and Economic development (correlation) My email address is pjkab@hotmail.com I look forward to hearing from you Regards Paul Sir

Please forgive this methof of contact

In Indonesia, journalists have very little tradition to stay independent from power. We like to be closer to those in power than to reality, meaning that journalists like to be close to politicians, generals and business leaders rather than listening to real people on the streets. Suharto, Yudhoyono and many others, indeed, won't let "opportunities" to exploit journalists escape from their agendas. Dear Koen,

Btw, Mr Harsono, thank you for your role in tha dark age of Indonesian press. Ummm, until now? :) No wonder, even Indonesians have distrusted their national press.
