Summary of the Project 3 熱帯水圏における水産資源の持続的開発･利用に関する研究 東京海洋大学 Summary of the project 【Background and Object of Research】 The food security and the environmental conservation are the global issue to be solved in the 21 Century. Especially in the Asian countries, the sustainable food supply is the urgent task in correspondence with the expected population explosion in this region. Indonesia is the archipelago county consisted of thousands of islands crossing the equatorial water. A big population in Indonesia requires the further industrial development of the coastal and marine capture fisheries, fish and shrimp farming both at coastal and inland waters, and the food processing and marketing. The drastic move of fisheries development can be anticipated to cause the negative impact to the environment, and the endangering to the fisheries resources. In these points, the research and development through the Core University Program on Fisheries Science in Indonesia can be the workable model in the tropical area in Asia, towards the establishment of sustainable fisheries development. The program consisted of 4 research topics, such as Food Processing, Fisheries Biology and Aquaculture, Fishing Technology and Fisheries Socio-Economics. 【Research Subjects and Outcomes】 Each research group of Food Processing, Fisheries Biology and Aquaculture, Fishing Technology and Fisheries Socio-Economics set the intensive topics for the cooperative research as being listed below. Food Processing: Food Science approach for efficient utilization of fisheries products Fisheries Biology and Aquaculture: Studies on aquaculture and resource conservation Fishing Technology: Environmentally friendly fishing technology Fisheries Socio-economics: Socio-Economic studies on capture fisheries and aquaculture The Core University Program in Fisheries Science was established in 1995 under the support of JSPS with its Indonesian counterpart, DGHE, Ministry of National Education, for promoting scientific cooperation between Indonesia and Japan. Tokyo University of Fisheries in Japan and Diponegoro University in Indonesia are designated as the Core Universities for providing the Program of cooperative research activities in the fields of Fisheries Science, currently in four 4 specialized areas : Food Processing, Fisheries Biology and Aquaculture, Fishing Technology, and Fisheries Socio-Economics. The Core University Program includes the following three activities: Scientist Exchanges, Cooperative Research and Scientific Seminars. Through all these exchange Programs, the total numbers of scholars were 30-40 every year, both invited from Indonesia, and dispatched from Japan to Indonesia Six member universities in Indonesia form the network for planning and implementation of the Program through close linkage with the core of Diponegoro University(UNDIP), and the members of Riau University(UNRI), Bogor Agricultural University (IPB), Mulawarman 3 熱帯水圏における水産資源の持続的開発･利用に関する研究 東京海洋大学 University(UNMUL), Hasanuddin University (UNHAS), Sam Ratulangi University(UNSRAT) and Pattimura University(UNPATTI). These Universities had the opportunity to form an organizing committee to act as a host for workshops, seminars and symposia. These are considered the best avenue for exchanging information on current research topics from both countries. Seminars are the major events focusing on a single area of Fisheries Science. The 1st JSPS-DGHE Seminar in 1995 was titled “Fisheries Science in Tropical Area with special reference to Post-Harvest Subjects in 21st Century” at Semarang, jointly organized with Diponegoro University. The 2nd Seminar was held in Tokyo on 1997, titled “Fisheries Science in Tropical Area – Aquaculture in Asia”. These Seminars were complemented by Workshops : “Education System and Research Activities of Fisheries Science in Indonesia” (1996) in Tokyo/Hakata, and “Education and Training Program in Fishing Technology”(1997) held aboard the TUF Research/ Training Vessel Umitaka-Maru at port of Jakarta. As a follow-up to the latter onboard workshop, the 3rd Seminar, held 1999 in Bali, focused on finding new solutions for “Sustainable Fishing Technology in Asia towards 21st Century”. The 4th JSPS-DGHE Seminar, titled “Sustainable Fisheries in Asia in the new Millennium”(2000) was the first challenge to hold a big international gathering for the Fisheries Science Project between Indonesia and Japan. As the 3rd phase of 2002-2004, in order to up-grade our activity as the regional approach to seek the common goal of Fisheries Sciences in the Asian tropical region, .the following research topics in each group were carried out, together with the several workshops for distributing the results from the previous cooperative research activities. Food Processing : 1) Evaluation and improvement of freshness quality of fisheries products, 2) Development of Surimi products from under-utilized resources, 3) Effective utilization of sea algae, 4) Identification and utilization of microbacteria, 5) Food science approach towards traditional and local fisheries products. Fisheries Biology and Aquaculture : 1) Fisheries Biology research to discern and analyze biodiversity, and to develop the conservation program, 2) Development of eco-friendly aquaculture, 3) Development of new aquaculture techniques, 4) Marine ranching and stock enhancement, 5) Fisheries Biology on Crustaceans Fishing Technology : 1) Development of safer and better navigation methods and equipments for small fishing boats, 2) Evaluation and improvement of fishing selectivity for coastal fishing gear, 3) Research on fish behavior and physiology for application in capture fisheries, 4) Development and application of conservation harvesting technology for coral reef fisheries, 5) Measurement and instrumentation development for capture process analysis. Fisheries Socio-Economics : 1) Socio-economic approach for sustainable development of shrimp farming, 2) Socio-economic approach for sustainable development of coastal fisheries, 3) Socio-economic approach to the development of fishing ports for supporting the sustainable fisheries development 4.

  • Hasanuddin University Engineering Faculty Development Project (Loan Agreement: 03/29/2007, Loan Amount: 7,801 Million Yen, Borrower: the Republic of Indonesia) 2
    Ex-ante Evaluation 1. Name of the Project Country: The Republic of Indonesia Project: Hasanuddin University Engineering Faculty Development Project (Loan Agreement: 03/29/2007, Loan Amount: 7,801 million yen, Borrower: The Republic of Indonesia) 2. Necessity and Relevance of JBIC’s Assistance Against a backdrop of intensifying competition, with goods imported from overseas accompanying rapid development in surrounding countries, and increasing economic deregulation coupled with the increasing importance of Indonesia as an export base amid advancing globalization, the lack of human resources (including engineers) in Indonesia is becoming an issue in an environment where industries are being challenged to improve their competitiveness. Furthermore, the disparity in development between the western region, centered on Java, and the eastern region is significant. While the eastern region does have agriculture, fisheries, and marine resources, there are many areas where development is lagging due to lack of technical capacity and information, infrastructure networks, and human resources. In the future, to promote industrial development by improving local manufacturing capability to enhance value-added aspects, the development of human resources is an urgent issue. At the same time, Indonesia’s enrollment ratio in higher education at 15% (2004) is low in comparison with neighboring countries (32% in Thailand, 28% in Malaysia, and 29% in the Philippines). In spite of an acute need for human resources in engineering, the ratio of students in the field of engineering is only about 11% of total student numbers (18% in Japan, 2004). Lacking in facilities and equipment, and with a low number of academic papers by teaching faculty, universities are lacking in both quality and quantity in their educational and research activities.
