Mr. Ganjar Pranowo also added that now is the time for our focus to shift from land-based oriented to ocean-based oriented. “The coast on the coast of Central Java is long, with the potential for capture fisheries reaching 340,082 tons, and there are 106,466 fishermen. Helping the feasibility and improving the standard of living of Indonesian fishermen takes time, so it requires cooperation from various parties who are experts in disaster mitigation, solving environmental problems as well as technical issues,” he said.
