Abstract

Indonesia is a "paradise" for international shipping, Indonesia is at the crossroads for ships from west to east and vice versa. Indonesia also has several strategic Choke Points (crossing points) for international shipping lines such as the Malacca Strait, the Makassar Strait, and the Lombok Strait. The most important thing in the use of the sea is the problem of law enforcement; which in practice often finds obstacles, one of which is the number of laws and regulations that are owned by law enforcement agencies authorized by the sea. There are approximately 17 pieces of legislation governing the authority at sea, with 13 institutions / ministries as law enforcement in the sea, as a result there is often overlapping in law enforcement at sea. Such conditions are difficult to synergize because each institution has a strategy / policy, related to equipment / facilities, different human resources. With the promulgation of Law No. 32 of 2014 concerning Marine Affairs, a new institution called the Marine Security Agency (BAKAMLA), as a substitute for Bakorkamla; has more authority than Bakorkamla; namely conducting security and safety patrols in the territorial waters of Indonesia and Indonesia's jurisdiction, regulated Act. No. 32/2014 on Marine Affairs, especially in the implementation of the Early Warning System that is very much needed by Indonesia as a disaster-prone country. The problem arises as to how the role of Bakamla is in law enforcement at sea, and whether there is no overlapping of authority with other agencies, considering that the Navy also has the same authority. The research method used is normative juridical method, which only examines the rules of the law. Conclusion, in terms of law enforcement at sea, in Article 63, Paragraph (1) Bakamla has the authority to conduct instant chase; dismiss, inspect, arrest, carry and deliver the ship to the relevant agency authorized to carry out further legal proceedings; and integrating security and safety information systems in the territorial waters of Indonesia and Indonesia's jurisdiction. (2) The authority referred to in paragraph (1) is carried out in an integrated and integrated manner in a single command and control unit.
