Forests in Indonesia | Governance | Indonesian "Adat" Communities | Low (1) | Although this group can now vote in elections & has some modest formal recognition of its customary laws, most of the decisions about resource use are made in distant regional & national capitals, and the level of power, while in a sense higher than under the Suharto regime, is still low. |

Forests in Indonesia | Governance | Large Extractive Industries in Indonesia | High (3) | Although perhaps less important than in the final years of the Suharto regime, extractive industries continued to play an important role in the process of determining how forests were governed during this period.

Forests in Indonesia | Governance | Indonesian District Governments | Medium (2) | At the district level, important decisions are made about the management of forests by district governments, under the decentralized political order. Some of these decisions are permitted by national law, and others are authorities claimed by the district authorities without national sanction. See Arnold (2008) for more details on this. While these actors are very active, they are not necessarily very powerful. |

Fishermen protested when they didn't get what they wanted. Strong pressure from fishers kept sea cucumber fisheries open in 2001 and 2002 even though adult densities were below the limit reference point of 0.4ind/m2 at which the IMA resolved to close fisheries (Shepherd et al., 2004) |

This Committee reviews the international and domestic science and management of SBT and recommends to the AFMA Commission what they think the allowable catch should be each season. Each fishing season, AFMA officers visit the major fishing ports of the SBT Fishery. These visits allow AFMA to meet directly with fishers to discuss any concerns they might have, and also to gain current information on the trends in fishing and catches during the season. |
