        "summary": "The Indonesian government has initiated its first meeting on the Giant Sea Wall project along the northern coast of Java, with Coordinating Minister for Infrastructure Agus Harimurti Yudhoyono assuring that affected fishermen will be relocated to enhance their welfare rather than displace them without purpose. The project aims to improve fishermen's economic value, create new job opportunities, and integrate with the Red White Fishermen's Village programme through land revitalisation. Substantial funding beyond state and regional budgets will be required, prompting efforts to attract investors.",
        "content": "<p>The government has begun holding its inaugural meeting regarding the\nGiant Sea Wall project, or Giant Sea Wall, on the northern coast of Java\n(Pantura). On that occasion, Coordinating Minister for Infrastructure\nand Regional Development, Agus Harimurti Yudhoyono (AHY), stated that\nthe government will relocate fishermen affected by the project. He\nassured that the relocation of fishermen is not intended to make them\nmore miserable, but to improve their welfare. \u201cThis is certainly aimed\nat improving their welfare, not to evict without purpose, let alone make\nthem more miserable,\u201d said AHY at the Ministry of Marine Affairs and\nFisheries office in Central Jakarta, on Monday, 4 May 2026. He hopes\nthat the Giant Sea Wall development can also increase the economic value\nfor fishermen and open up new job opportunities for the community. \u201cIn\nfact, with this, we hope that the welfare of fishermen will improve even\nmore, and their economic value will rise higher,\u201d AHY stated. \u201cAnd\nultimately, more people, including our young people, will be absorbed\ninto job opportunities outside the fishing profession,\u201d he added.\nFurthermore, he said that the Giant Sea Wall project will be\nsynchronised with the Red White Fishermen\u2019s Village (KNMP) programme.\nAHY mentioned that the government will carry out land revitalisation in\nPantura so that both can be integrated. \u201cAnd finally, of course, we hope\nto attract investors because this will require a large budget,\u201d he said.\nAccording to AHY, the cost of the project will not be sufficient if only\nusing the State Revenue and Expenditure Budget (APBN) and the Regional\nRevenue and Expenditure Budget (APBD).<\/p>",
