JAKARTA, KOMPAS.com – Gerindra Party politician who is also the younger brother of the Minister of Defense Prabowo Subianto, Hashim Djojohadikusumo, said that Susi Pudjiastuti’s policy prohibited cultivation lobster at the time was a confusion.
Because according to him, Indonesia has the potential to become a super power country from the cultivation of marine and fishery products, including lobster cultivation. That way, Indonesia can beat Vietnam.
“So the policy of the old minister (Susi Pudjiastuti) was very wrong. The old minister banned lobster cultivation, not only export. Cultivation lobster is prohibited, in-banned, that’s wrong, “said Hashim in Jakarta, Friday (4/12/2020).
The prohibition on export and cultivation of lobsters is contained in Ministerial Regulation Number 56 of 2016. The issuance of the regulation is a turning point for lobster seeds not to be exported to Vietnam, which is the main importer of fry from Indonesia.
Until 2019, his ranks managed to save potential state losses of Rp. 1.37 trillion from the illegal export of fry.
However, according to Hashim, many fishermen who were still cultivating lobster were caught due to Susi’s policy.
“In fact, those who have suffered a lot (are) fishermen. According to the experts, Sara (Saraswati / candidate for Deputy Mayor of Tangsel), many fishermen were arrested. Cultivation business by poor fishermen is closed. In West Java, East Java, in NTT, in NTB , “said Hashim.
He further emphasized that his company has been engaged in the maritime and fisheries sector for 34 years. However, since processing the fry export license last May, PT Bima sakti Pearl never exported once.
The reason is that there are still four documents obtained by PT Bima Sakti Mutiara, which was previously engaged in cultivation pearl this.
The four documents include a Certificate of Conducting Cultivation Lobster for Exporters, Fish Quarantine Installation Certificate, Certificate of Good Seeding Practices, and Letter of Determination of the Release Time for lobster seeds.
“The fact is that to this day, PT Bima Sakti Mutiara has not, or is still waiting for, the completion of an export permit. Still waiting,” said Hotman in Jakarta, Friday (4/12/2020).
At least, there are still four documents obtained by PT Bima Sakti Mutiara, which was previously engaged in pearl cultivation.
The four documents include Certificate of Having Conducted Lobster Breeding for Exporters, Certificate of Fish Quarantine Installation, Certificate of Good Breeding Practices, and Letter of Determination of the Release Time for lobster seeds.

The incomplete document makes PT Bima Sakti Mutiara not yet having an export license.
“But until now we haven’t exported lobster. I want to straighten this out because almost all of my friends, even our family think we already have a lobster license. Until now we haven’t, please straighten it out. We feel dizholimi,” he concluded.
The arrest of Minister of Marine Affairs and Fisheries Edhy Prabowo because of the alleged bribery of the lobster seed export license case dragged Prabowo’s family name and Gerindra Party, which incidentally is also on the list of lobster seed exporters.
In July, Edhy had argued that it was not the party politicians on the list of candidate exporters who would decide. The warrant is issued by the team, which consists of the Directorate General of Capture Fisheries, the Directorate General of Cultivation, and the BKIPM.
The team also involves the Inspectorate General and is supervised by the Secretary General. As long as the team does not follow the rules, Edhy emphasizes that they do not hesitate to revoke their permit.
“If there are people who think there are Gerindra people, I happen to be Gerindra people, no problem. I am ready to be criticized about that. But try to count how many people were told? Maybe not more than 5 people or 2 people I know,” said Edhy in the Raker. with Commission IV DPR RI, Monday (6/7/2020).
