Abstract: This research aims to analyze the impacts of the entry into force of the ASEAN Economic Community
(AEC) on the national shipping industry, especially on the transport of goods through sea transport services.
There are two questions in this research, how is the mechanism for the implementation of AEC in transport
service sector and how are the impacts of the implementation of AEC on the transport of goods by sea by
national shipping companies. It is a normative legal research with a descriptive analytical nature. Data in
this research is a secondary data. The research findings show that mechanism for the implementation of
AEC in transport service sector is implemented based on the objective of the establishment of AEC,
ASEAN economic integration. One of its elements is free flow of sea transport services, which is included
in the ASEAN Framework Agreement on Services (AFAS). The entry into force of AEC, affects national
shipping business. One of its negative impacts is weak national shipping business. It, however, has some
positive impacts such as increase in exports and imports in the ASEAN region and the construction of
Indonesia’s sea toll road as an effort to improve national shipping business activity.

INTRODUCTION
Indonesia is a maritime country with the highest
number of islands in the world. With its more
than
17,000 islands, Indonesia becomes one of
the
biggest maritime countries in the world. It
has big
potential in sea transport. Sea transport
service is a
vital business element in good
distribution at
national and international levels
(Agusdianto, 2017).
Indonesia was affirmed as an archipelagic state
in the declaration of the United Nations Convention
on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) III. As an
archipelagic state, Indonesia is one of countries
which benefits from the UNCLOS. The country has
established sea lines of Indonesia’s islands which are
used as a guide for international shipping routes or
foreign ships which across Indonesian territorial
seas. As a maritime state or an archipelagic state,
Indonesia consists of about 17,508 islands, from
Sabang to Merauke, as long as about 5,000
kilometers, and lies across Miangas Island and
Marore Island to Rote Island, as long as about 2,000
kilometers. Indonesia has a total area of about 8
million square kilometers and its sea area is about
two third of the total area of Indonesia. The rest is
land area. This shows that Indonesia is the main
market place for other countries not only for trade
but also for shipping routes (Limbong, 2014).
Indonesia’s sea transport sector ever reached its
golden era in 1960s after the nationalization of a
Dutch shipping company, NV. KPM (Koninklijk
Paketvaart Maatschappij), through Government
Regulation Number 34 Year 1960 date 24
September 1960. Sadly, it slowly faded away after
the issuance of the Ministry Regulation Number 57
Year 1984 through which government bans the
operation of more than twenty-five-year-old ships.
Due to the lack of ships, businessmen are forced to
use foreign ships and this continues until 2005
(Rahmat, 2015).
In response to this situation, the Government of
Indonesia issued Presidential Instruction Number 5
Year 2005 on the Empowerment of the National
Shipping Industry. It regulates the implementation of
the cabotage principle in the Indonesian waters.
Then, the cabotage principle is regulated in Law
Number 17 Year 2008 on Shipping.

The implementation of the cabotage principle has
been proven to be able to stimulate and accelerate
the development of national shipping industry and
greatly affected the national economy. Data from the
Department of Transportation shows that there were
13,244 Indonesian-flagged ships in February 2014
while there were only 6,041 Indonesian-flagged
ships in May 2005. The data shows that the number
of Indonesian-flagged ships has significantly
increased by 7,203 units or about 119%. This has a
positive impact on the installed capacity of the
Indonesian-flagged ships which reaches 19.2 million
gross tonnage, or it increases 238% compared to the
capacity of the Indonesian-flagged ships in 2005
which was only 5.67 million gross tonnage (Rahmat,
2015).
The national shipping industry weakened again
following the entry into force of AEC in 2015. It
brings Indonesia into the concept of economic
globalization and the liberalization of free trade.
Free trade in sea transport services results in
weak national shipping industry because trade
transaction rules may slow down shipping industry.
Almost 90 percent of coal and crude palm oil (CPO)
exports use importer (foreign) ships. Consequently,
many cargo and logistic shipping companies lose
their shipping activities and ships which operate
suffer loss due to the lack of goods that they
transport. This happens because the foreign
importers use their own ships to transport the
imported coal and crude palm oil (Hidayat, 2016).
Logistics transportation by sea is an integral part
of export and import activities. The application of
AEC and liberalization of shipping services has had
an impact on national shipping businesses. National
shipping industry activities experienced a downturn
due to the entry of foreign ships carrying logistics
from and between ports in Indonesia.
Based on the background described in this
introduction, it is important to answer the research
questions, among others, how is the mechanism for
the implementation of AEC in transport service
sector and how are the impacts of the
implementation of AEC on the transport of goods by
sea.

RESULT AND DISCUSSION
3.1
Mechanism for the Entry into
Force of AEC in Sea Transport
Services
The establishment of the ASEAN Economic
Community (AEC) started from the agreement of
ASEAN leaders at the ASEAN Summit held in
December 1997 in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The
agreement aims to improve the competitiveness of
ASEAN so that it can compete with China and India
and attract foreign investment. Foreign capital is
needed to enhance job opportunity and the
prosperity of ASEAN community. Embryo of the
ASEAN Economic Community (AEC) started at the
Informal Meeting of Heads of State/Government of
the Member States of ASEAN in 1997 to formulate
the vision of ASEAN which will be achieved in
2020. In other words, the initial purpose of the
establishment of ASEAN Community is to ensure
durable peace, stability and shared prosperity in the
region (Balakrishnan, 2015).
At the subsequent ASEAN Summit held in Bali
in October 2003, ASEAN leaders declared the
establishment of AEC in 2015.
ASEAN Economic Community is one of pillars
of the ASEAN Community (AC). AC comprises of
three pillars, namely: political-security cooperation,
economic cooperation and socio-cultural
cooperation (The Directorate General of ASEAN,
2003).
Economic cooperation is the realization of the
end goal of economic integration underlined in the
ASEAN Vision 2020, to transform ASEAN into a
stable, prosperous and highly-competitive region
which is marked by the free flow of goods, services,
investments and economic development, poverty
reduction and socio-economic disparities by 2020.
The AEC is a form of ASEAN economic integration.
It means that there is a free trade system among
ASEAN countries. Indonesia and the other nine
ASEAN member countries have agreed AEC
agreement.
At Bali Summit in October 2003, ASEAN
ICOSTEERR 2018 - International Conference of Science, Technology, Engineering, Environmental and Ramification Researches

leaders declared that the AEC shall be the goal of
regional economic integration by 2020. The ASEAN
Security Community and the ASEAN Socio-Cultural
Community are the other two integral pillars of the
envisaged ASEAN Community. All the three pillars
are expected to work in tandem in establishing the
ASEAN Community in 2020 (Rachmat, 201)
Subsequently, the Meeting of the ASEAN
Economic Ministers (AEM) held in August 2006 in
Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, agreed to advance the
AEC with clear targets and timelines for
implementation of various measures. At the 12
th
ASEAN Summit in January 2007, ASEAN leaders
affirmed their strong commitment to accelerate the
establishment of an ASEAN Community by 2015 as
envisioned in the ASEAN Vision 2020 and the
ASEAN Concord II, and signed the Cebu
Declaration on the Acceleration of the Establishment
of an ASEAN Community by 2015. In particular,
the Leaders agreed to hasten the establishment of the
ASEAN Economic Community by 2015 and to
transform ASEAN into a region with free movement
of goods, services, investment, skilled labour, and
freer flow of capital
(ASEAN, 2018).
The AEC has four main pillars and envisages the
following key characteristics: a single market and
production base, a highly-competitive economic
region, a region of equitable economic development
and a region fully integrated into the global
economy (Kementerian Luar Negeri RI, 2015).
The realization of AEC as a single market and a
production base has five elements, namely: free flow
of goods, free flow of services, free flow of
investment, free flow of skilled labors and freer flow
of capital (Simanjuntak, 2015). In particulary, this
research elaborates the element of free flow of
services.
Service sector plays a strategic role in the
economy of ASEAN member countries as about
40%-50% of their Gross Domestic Product (GDP)
are contributed by this sector. In addition, service
sector is a sector with the fastest growth in the
ASEAN region (Kementerian Luar Negeri RI,
2018).
As an effort to improve economic cooperation
through the liberalization of trade in service sector,
the ASEAN member countries agreed the ASEAN
Framework Agreement on Services (AFAS) on 15
December 1995 in Bangkok, Thailand. To follow-up
the agreement, a Coordinating Committee on
Services (CCS) was established to develop
modalities to manage the negotiation of the
liberalization of services in the framework of AFAS
which includes eight sectors: air and sea transport
services, business services, construction services,
telecommunication services, tourism services,
financial services, health services and logistic
services (Kementerian Luar Negeri RI, 2015).
AFAS agreement includes the objectives of the
establishment of AFAS: to enhance cooperation
amongst member states in order to improve the
efficiency and competitiveness, diversify the
production capacity and supply and distribution of
services of their service suppliers within and outside
ASEAN; to eliminate substantially restriction to
trade in services amongst member states; and to
liberalize trade in services by expanding the depth
and scope of liberalization beyond those undertaken
by member states under the GATS with the aim to
realizing a free trade area in services.
AFAS serves as a basis for all ASEAN member
countries to agree on the realization of ASEAN
region as a free trade area in service sector,
including sea transportation service. As a sovereign
state, although the free trade era has been open,
Indonesia has to keep the sovereignty of its sea
territory. The sovereignty of Indonesian sea territory
has to be kept and protected. National shipping
companies get the top priority and are given the
biggest opportunity to transport goods or passangers
inter-harbor for national and international shipping.
To keep and protect the legal sovereignty of the
Indonesian waters, government issued the
Presidential Instruction Number 5 Year 2005 on the
Empowerment of the National Shipping Industry. It
regulates the implementation of the Cabotage
Principle in Indonesia so that the country is
recognized as one of maritime axis in the world.
The Cabotage Principle is one of legal principles
contained in sea transport law. The law regulates
that sea transport activity in Indonesia is
implemented by a national sea transport company by
using an Indonesia-flagged ship and manned by
Indonesian ship’s men crew (Article 8 from Law on
Shipping, 2008)
As a result of the implementation of the
principle, government requires national shipping
companies to own Indonesian-flagged ships/their
own ships and use services from a national ship’s
men crew. Government implements the cabotage
principle to ensure that Indonesian-flagged ships
become a king on their own sea area.
Then, the government issued the Decision of the
Transportation Minister Number 71 Year 2005 on
important commodities such as oil and gas, general
cargo, coal, logs, rice, crude palm oil, fertilizer,
cement, excavated materials, vegetables and fruits,
agricultural products, liquid and chemical substances

Transport Services

that must be transported by Indonesian-flagged
ships. The Cabotage Principle is regulated in Article
8 of Law Number 17 Year 2008 on Shipping. It
contains administrative and criminal sanctions for
the infringement of the cabotage principle.
Again, the government issued Decision of
Minister of Number 48 Year 2011 on the
Implementation of Cabotage Principle for Upstream
Oil and Gas. However, the government still gives a
dispensation to foreign ships for off-shore activities
and under water works until the end of this year. In
addition, dispensation for the use of foreign ships for
oil and gas survey activities also ends in December
2015.
Indonesia encourages the liberalization of service
sector through the Coordinator Team for Service
Sector (Tim Koordinator Bidang Jasa TKBJ)
which works under the Ministry of Trade. It was
established through the Decision of the Minister of
Trade of the Republic of Indonesia Number 288/M-
DAG/KEP/3/2010 date 5 March 2010 (Kementerian
Luar Negeri RI, 2015).
According to Article 3 of Law Number 17 Year
2008 on Shipping, the objectives of the
implementation of the Indonesian shipping system
are, among others, to facilitate the flow of
movement of people and/or goods through the
waters by prioritizing and protecting transport in
water in order to facilitate the activities of the
national economy; foster marine life; uphold the
sovereignty of the country; create competitiveness
by developing national water transport industry;
support, mobilize, and encourage the achievement of
national development objectives; strengthen the
unity and integrity of the nation in order
embodiment Archipelago; and improve national
resilience.
To achieve these objectives, according to the
Eludication of the Regulation of the Government of
the Republic of Indonesia Number 20 Year 2010 on
Water Transportation, the implementation of water
transportation is done, among others, through the
following ways:
Implement the cabotage principle consequently
and consistently so that national water transport
companies can be host in their own country;
Develop transport in waters in disadvantaged
areas and/or isolated areas through pioneer shipping
and tasking;
Create a conducive business climate for the
empowerment and independency of national water
transport industry;
Develop relevant service industry to support
water transport activities;
Develop an integrated information system for
transport in water which involve all relevant parties
by utilizing the development of information and
communication technology.
3.2
The Impacts of the Entry into
Force of AEC on the Transport of
Goods by Sea
Economic globalization means a process through
which many countries are involved in the global
economic activities (Tambunan, 2004). In the global
economic, this is marked by public awareness of
their integral relation pattern as members of the
borderless world community (Limbong, 2014).
The establishment of AEC leads to the
realization of a free market in capital, good and
service as well as labor sectors. This also affects the
free flow of goods and services in ASEAN member
countries.
The free flow of service sector also affects sea
transport service (logistics), both the transport of
goods and the transport of passengers. It is a fact that
logistic system in Indonesia is weaker than that of its
neighboring countries such as Singapore and
Malaysia. Therefore, the Government of Indonesia
must anticipate this by strengthening its international
harbors (ports) to enable them to serve trade from
the Atlantic and the Pacific and implement the
Cabotage Principle for distribution to areas visited
by national ships. So far, business activities of
national shipping service are protected by the
cabotage principle so that national shipping
companies can survive until now.
Cabotage Principle means a principle stating that
shipping activities within the waters of a state are
only allowed for the vessels of the state concerned.
Cabotage principle has been recognized in the law
and practice of shipping worldwide and is the
manifestation of the sovereignty of a state in
controling its own seas. This principle serves as a
protection for domestic shipping companies against
unreasonable conditions due to unfair business
competition (Kusumaatmadja, 1994).
As a result of the implementation of the
principle, government requires national shipping
companies to own Indonesian-flagged ships (their
own ships) and use services from Indonesian ship’s
men crew. Government implements the cabotage
principle to ensure that Indonesian-flagged ships
become king on their own waters.
The United Nations Convention on the Law of
the Sea (UNCLOS) 1982 recognizes the rights of
states to claim for various types of maritime zones
ICOSTEERR 2018 - International Conference of Science, Technology, Engineering, Environmental and Ramification Researches
1514
with different status which can be divided into the
following:
Under the full sovereignty of state covering deep
sea, territorial sea and straits which are used for
international shipping; state has a special and limited
jurisdiction i.e. additional zone; state has an
exclusive jurisdiction to utilize their natural
resources i.e. Exclusive Economic Zone and
continental shelf; under a special international rule
i.e. international sea-bed area; and not under the
sovereignty or jurisdiction of any state i.e. high seas
(Kusumaatmadja and Agoes, 2003).
Free flow of trade in goods and services for
ASEAN countries which is applied in AEC
agreement, including the effects of free flow of sea
transport service sector (logistic), has to respect the
cabotage principle although Indonesia is bound by
the AEC agreement and although free trade in AEC
agreement has no artificial obstacle (obstacle from
government) in trade among individuals and
companies in different countries (wikipedia
eksiklopedia, 2017).
An efficient and well-managed shipping system
is a very important factor in economic competition
and national integrity. National shipping business
activities, especially transport of goods by sea,
decrease after the entry into force of AEC.
Data from the Central Bureau of Statistics shows
that number of goods which were transported by
ship increased 1.62% only in 2017, lower than that
of in 2016 which was 8.37%. Based on data from the
Central Bureau of Statistics, there were a total of
262.43 million tons and 258.24 million tons which
were transported in 2017 and 2016 respectively. In
general, trend of cargo slowed down, from 8.91% in
2016 to 1.95% in 2017. Other harbor share reaches
83% of the total cargo (Maulana, 2018).
Similar to the business activities of national
shipping industry, business activities of offshore
shipping were also weak (Grizhaldo, 2015).
Offshore shipping is shipping on offshore.
Meanwhile, offshore building is a building or
structure built on the offshore to support exploration
and exploitation of mining products such as oil and
natural gas.
In addition to decline in oil and gas business
activities due to legal uncertainty which fails to give
protection to domestic shipping industry, this
situation has resulted in the cut of operational cost,
employment termination and decrease in the number
of offshore ships. Offshore shipping industry is one
of business which declines as a result of the effect of
the entry into force of AEC (Dewi, 2015).
Data from the Indonesian National Shipowners’
Association (INSA) shows that 4,900 ships or 35%
of the total number of national ships which is 14,000
units do not operate (Hidayat, 2016).
According to Carmelita Hartoto (General
Chairwoman of the Indonesian National
Shipowners Association), the condition of both
national and international shipping is about to enter
into a crisis because of weak global economy. Due
to the weak economy, many domestic companies are
forced to make efficiency. As a result, domestic
transport business is slow. According to her, about
60 percent of coal tug boats, 40 percent of general
cargo ships and 60 percent of upstream oil and gas
ships do not operate (Hidayat, 2016).
Water transport, as a part of the national
transport system, plays a vital role in supporting
national economy, realizing the embodiment of
Archipelago (Wawasan Nusantara), strengthening
the unity and integrity of the nation, improving
national resilience and strengthening international
relation. Water transport has strategic functions to
support trade and economic activities (ship follows
the trade) and stimulate economic and regional
growth (ship promotes the trade) so that it functions
as a strategic infrastructure for Indonesia as an
archipelagic state.
The negative effect of the entry into force of
AEC in sea transport service has resulted in weak
national shipping industry. The implementation of
the cabotage principle can increase the activities of
logistic shipping industry. The implementation of
the cabotage principle consequently and consistently
which is clearly regulated in the Government
Regulation Number 20 Year 2010 on Water
Transport makes provisions on free trade in sea
transport service sector contained in EAC irrelevant
because AEC alone has to comply with provisions
which are the rights and authorities of any sovereign
state.
The entry into force of AEC in logistic shipping
also has some positive impacts such as increase in
exports and imports in the ASEAN region, the use of
technology in shipping industry sector and the
construction of Indonesia’s sea toll road as an effort
to improve national shipping business activity.
AEC gives ASEAN member countries
opportunities to accelerate the movement of human
resources and capital which are two vital production
factors. Trade increases because AEC brings
investment flow from abroad into Indonesia which
will create a multiplier effect in various sectors,
especially in economic development sector. The
creation of a single market has made companies in
ASEAN region easier to establish a joint venture so
Juridical Analysis of the Impacts of the Entry into Force of ASEAN Economic Community on the Transport of Goods through Sea
Transport Services
1515
that they have a greater access to production
materials.
Especially for technology sector, the entry into
force of AEC leads to the transfer of technology
from developed countries to developing countries in
the Southeast Asia region. Indonesian shipping
industry tries to build ships with more innovative
design and equip them with modern technology
although it is still unable to compete with advanced
technology used by foreign ships.
The construction of sea toll road is government’s
priority program as a manifestation of Nawa Cita
(Nine Priority Agendas) aiming to build an effective
and efficient sea transport connectivity in order to
ensure the availability of goods and reduce price
disparity as well as to ensure the sustainability of
good transport services to disadvantaged, isolated,
outer and border areas (Achmadi, 2018).
The construction of sea toll road is an effort to
provide sea transport network consistently and
regularly through the organization of sea transport
service with a subsidiary pattern and is supported by
the improvement of harbor or port facilities. Sea toll
road can support connectivity and reduce logistic
cost to get greater economic benefits.
Governments support for the sea toll road
program is realized through sea transport
infrastructure development such as sea transport,
harbors or ports as well as shipping safety and
security. According to the Presidential Regulation
Number 71 Year 2015, there are some types of cargo
that can be transported by using sea toll road ships
such as agricultural products (rice, soybean),
industrial products (sugar, oil, flour), farming
products (meat, eggs, fishes) and necessary materials
(fertilizers, seeds, cement).

CONCLUSION
Mechanism for the entry into force of AEC in sea
transport service is applied in accordance with the
signed ASEAN Framework Agreement on Services
(AFAS) date 15 December 1995 on the
Liberalization of Sea and Air Transport Services.
However, as a sovereign state, although the free
trade era has been open, Indonesia has to keep the
sovereignty of its territory. The interests and
prosperity of the nation must be prioritized. The
sovereignty of Indonesia’s waters has to be kept and
protected through the implementation of the
cabotage principle. National shipping companies get
the top priority and are given the biggest opportunity
to transport goods or passangers inter-harbor for
national and international shipping.
The negative effect of the entry into force of
AEC in sea transport service has resulted in weak
national shipping industry. The implementation of
the cabotage principle can increase the activities of
logistic shipping industry.
The entry into force of AEC in logistic shipping
also has some positive impacts such as increase in
exports and imports in the ASEAN region, the use of
technology in shipping industry sector and the
construction of Indonesia’s sea toll road as an effort
to improve national shipping business activity.
The implementation of AEC in the field of
shipping services must still respect the cabotage
principle of the sovereignty of each marine region of
ASEAN member countries, especially Indonesia as a
maritime country. The government should make
strict implementing regulations regarding the
implementation of the AEC in the field of shipping,
so that the opening of ASEAN free market can bring
benefits, the interests of the nation remain protected
and not interfere with national shipping business.
