Indonesia is an archipelagic country where sea transportion is an important tool to connect many places in this country. Sea transportation network as a part of the water transport network modes have different characteristics compared with the other transportation modes which capable of carrying passengers and / or goods in large quantities . It also could travel on the considerable distance either between islands and / or between countries. The ship is not only consider as a regular transport, however its also because of the nature, type and form as facilities / modes to support acertain works in the waters (its specialization nature). With passion and desire to enhance the national shipping industry in its own country, therefore the implementation of the cabotage principle is consider as a fixed price for all types and forms of vessel and should be consistent, as mandated by President OF Republic of Indonesia Instruction Nr. 5 year 2005 and Act Nr. 17 year 2008 concerning Navigation . Government should provide support and convenience to the national shipping industry to acquire facilities and infrastructure to ensure the implementation of the cabotage principle i.e by providing financial support / loans from financial institutions , as well as a longterm contract assurance to attract major investments to meet the sea transportation company requirements, where the government should guarantee it. The Benefits for Indonesia as an archipelagic country, should gives all national potential modalities in economic activity and development in order to increase national production and increase national income, but it is unfortunate that the willingness and seriousness of the government is only half-hearted in the implementation of cabotage principle, since there are rules and regulation that allowed vessel which has not yet been registered as Indonesian flag, by providing dispensation or policy to use the foreign flag in Indonesian waters with political interests considerations. The Implementation of cabotage principle is responded by many users of shipping industry by establishing agency not to increase their shipping fleet to meet the needs of sea transportation, which has more than 20 years of age . Hence the rules and regulations are required to support the national shipping industry to be more effective, and to gives more certainty in business.
