INTRODUCTION
The territorial borders of a country are the main manifestation of the
territorial sovereignty of a country. Territorial boundaries have an important role
in determining the boundaries of sovereignty, utilization of natural resources,
maintaining the security and integrity of the territory. Indonesia is the largest
maritime country in the world. Through the Law of the Republic of Indonesia
Number 17 of 1985 (UURI No. 17/1985), Indonesia ratified the United Nations

DISCUSSION
Cooperation between Indonesia and the Philippines in maritime affairs
related to EEZ (Exclusive Economic Zone) based on the UN Convention on
the Law of the Sea of 1982 or UNCLOS
As an archipelago, it is very important for Indonesia and the Philippines in
determining maritime borders. In a country, territory is one aspect of the
establishment of a state. Therefore, the border is an important thing that must be
resolved with both countries, both through bilateral and with the intermediary or
commonly called trilateral. Boundary setting is governed by international law,
because the borders of a country have a very important role in determining the
integrity of a territory. With the existence of national borders, there are clear
limits for a nation in managing all government affairs, namely in the political,
economic, social, cultural, defense and security fields.
According to UNCLOS, Indonesia as a state party that has agreed to be bound
by this Convention (UNCLOS) and for which this Convention applies reserves the
right to establish the outermost boundaries of various maritime zones with
maximum boundaries set as follows: 1. Territorial Sea as part of the territory of
the state: 12 nautical miles; 2. Additional Zones where the state has special
jurisdiction: 24 nautical miles; 3. The exclusive Economic Zone shall not exceed
200 nautical miles from the baseline from which the width of the territorial sea is
75
JURNAL KOMUNIKASI HUKUM, VOLUME 8 NOMOR 2 AGUSTUS 2022
measured; and 4. Continental Shelf: between 200 – 350 nautical miles or up to 100
nautical miles from isobath (depth) of 2,500 meters.
In accordance with the mandate of Pancasila and the Constitution of the
Republic of Indonesia of 1945, in order to protect the entire Indonesian nation
and all Indonesian blood spills, and to advance the general welfare, and
participate in implementing world order, the Exclusive Economic State. (EEZ) to
be used as a basis for the state to make arrangements, security, and management
of Indonesian jurisdictions that are utilized as much as possible for the welfare
and prosperity of Indonesian rakyrat. The Unitary State of the Republic of
Indonesia is an archipelago with territory whose boundaries and rights are
stipulated by law. However, in some areas of the sea of the Unitary State of the
Republic of Indonesia there are still claims of overlap with the sea area of
neighboring countries which if not strictly established the limits can cause
disputes between countries. One of the sea areas referred to is the EEZ in the
Sulawesi Sea and the Philippine Sea, in which Indonesia has sovereign rights.
The international legal regime on the Exclusive Economic Zone was
developed from the Truman Proclamation of 1945 in which the United States
unilaterally claimed exclusive rights to biological and non-biological resources on
the seafloor and continental shelf surface after territorial seas. These unilateral
claims have prompted Latin American countries to establish broader and
comprehensive claims in offshore areas that include not only the seafloor but also
include their water columns. This concept was further developed by the
international community through the United Nations Conference on the Law of
the Third Sea from 1973-1982 as well as the practice of States (State practice)
which wants to protect the reserves of biological natural resources contained
around its shores from fisheries activities allowed under the free sea regime. In
addition, the Exclusive Economic Zone also aims to protect the interests of coastal
countries in the field of marine environmental preservation and marine scientific
research in order to support the use of natural resources in the region.
The United Nations Convention III on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS 1982)
divides the sea into three parts. First, the sea which is part of the sovereign
territory of a state (territorial sea and inland sea); Second, the sea which is not the
sovereign territory of a state but that state has a number of rights and
jurisdictions over certain activities (additional zones and exclusive economic
zones); Third, the sea that is not a sovereign territory and is not the right /
jurisdiction of any country, namely the free sea. The exclusive economic zone
(EEZ) is one of the most revolutionary features of UNCLOS 1982 and has a
significant impact on the management and conservation of marine resources. The
EEZ regime ordered unilateral claims to the waters by states in the past, by
entitling coastal States to the exploration and exploitation, management and
conservation of biological and non-biological natural resources from the seafloor
and the land below and the water above them and other activities for the
economic exploration and exploitation of the zone, such as the generation of
energy from water, ocean currents and wind.

The ratification of the Agreement between the Republic of Indonesia and the
Republic of the Philippines on the Establishment of Exclusive Economic Zone
Boundaries in 2014 in addition to improving and strengthening bilateral relations
between the Republic of Indonesia and the Republic of the Philippines and
contributing to regional stability, also provides a number of benefits. The ratification
of the Agreement between the Republic of Indonesia and the Republic of the
Philippines regarding the Establishment of Exclusive Economic Zone Boundaries
also has implications for the activities of ministries / institutions of stakeholders so
that it is considered necessary to make a number of adjustments.
Based on Law No. 37 of 1999 on International Relations, the agreement
between the Government of the Republic of Indonesia and the Government of the
Republic of the Philippines regarding the Establishment of Exclusive Economic Zone
Boundaries is an implementation of foreign relations and policies carried out by the
Government of the Republic of Indonesia which is drafted based on the 1945
Constitution in order to strengthen the territorial integrity of the Unitary State of

Negotiations between the Republic of Indonesia and the Philippines have been
held many times, especially maritime boundaries in the Sulawesi sea and southern
Mindanao, but negotiations between the Government of the Republic of Indonesia
and the Government of the Republic of the Philippines have only made good
progress after the two countries periodically met in the Joint Permanent Working
Group Meeting on Maritime and Oceans Concerns. The Philippines, based on the
Treaty of Paris of 1898, describes its maritime territory in the form of a box by
incorporating Miangas Island into philippine territory, but this method is not in
accordance with the 1982 UNCLOS used by Indonesia as the basis for the withdrawal
of maritime boundaries. This is done by the Philippines considering that territorial
boundaries including the establishment of its Exclusive Economic Zone are
stipulated in the Constitution of the country that adopted the provisions in the
Treaty of Paris.
After the Philippines made amendments to its constitution, and made
adjustments to UNCLOS 1982. Indonesia and the Philippines agreed to resolve this
issue by negotiating. Negotiations conducted by Indonesia and the Philippines were
conducted in several meetings. The meeting between Indonesia and the Philippines
is the stages to reach a settlement in this case is the completion of EEZ delimitation.
In addition, Indonesia and the Philippines as actors in the completion of EEZ
delimitation have government agencies engaged in measurement and mapping that
help in solving this problem.
With the certainty and clarity of the boundaries of the Exclusive Economic
Zone between Indonesia and the Philippines, all challenges and problems that often
arise and face can be anticipated and overcome by the competent authorities in both
countries. In addition, the two countries can also be more free in continuing and
even increasing cooperation in the field of biological resource management and
environmental preservation contained in the Exclusive Economic Zone. In order to
implement the Agreement between the Government of the Republic of Indonesia
and the Government of the Republic of the Philippines regarding the Establishment
of Exclusive Economic Zone Boundaries and obtaining the intended benefits of the
Agreement, as well as carrying out the mandate of Law No. 24 of 2000 on
International Treaties, an endorsement through law is required. The agreement on
the establishment of an Exclusive Economic Zone is one of Indonesia's steps to
realize its goal as a prosperous maritime country, because this agreement is a space
to formulate a National Ocean Development Policy.
