Based on data from the Ministry of Marine Affairs and Fisheries (KKP), from 2015 to September 2019, the KKP successfully apprehended 603 fishing vessels engaged in illegal fishing practices in Indonesian waters. The highest number of apprehended foreign fishing vessels (KIA) originated from Vietnam, totaling 234 vessels. Of this number, 81% violated the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) limits.

Minister of Marine Affairs and Fisheries Susi Pudjiastuti explained that the entry of Vietnamese fishing vessels into Indonesian waters prevented Indonesia from enjoying the potential marine and fisheries resources in the North Natuna Sea. As a result, the regional gross domestic product (PDRB) of the fisheries sector in Riau Islands Province was not as high as other provinces.

Besides Vietnam, other apprehended foreign fishing vessels originated from Malaysia (72 vessels), the Philippines (58 vessels), and Thailand (7 vessels). Meanwhile, one vessel each was from China, Timor Leste, and Panama. The remaining vessels were Indonesian fishing vessels (KII) also engaged in illegal fishing practices, totaling 229 vessels.
