The West Nusa Tenggara (NTB) provincial government and Indonesia’s Marine Affairs and Fisheries Ministry (KKP) have agreed to strengthen their partnership. The goal is to develop the blue economy, which focuses on sustainable use of ocean resources for economic growth.
This cooperation aims to improve local fisheries, marine tourism, and environmental protection. By working together, both sides hope to create more jobs and increase income for coastal communities. The ministry will provide technical support and funding, while the NTB government will manage local implementation.
Officials say this partnership is a key step toward making Indonesia a global leader in sustainable ocean management.
