President Prabowo Subianto stated that Indonesia is prepared to accelerate large-scale investment in the blue economy sector, particularly in fisheries and maritime development. During his visit to the Red and White Fishermen Village in Gorontalo, he emphasized that rising global demand for fish protein creates significant opportunities for Indonesia to strengthen its marine economy while improving the welfare of local fishermen. The government plans to expand support for coastal communities through better fishing infrastructure, vessel distribution programs, and stronger fisheries development initiatives.

Indonesia’s vast marine resources are viewed as a strategic asset that can drive sustainable economic growth and strengthen national competitiveness. The government also aims to continue developing thousands of fishermen villages across the country to improve productivity and create broader economic opportunities in coastal regions. Through long-term investment in maritime industries and community empowerment, Indonesia seeks to position the blue economy as one of the country’s future growth pillars.
