        "summary": "Harassment at sea From Koran Tempo Local fishing boats have lately often been harassed while operating at sea by being stopped or inspected under varying pretenses, a process which usually ends up in a \"compromise\". Therefore, we want a clear explanation as to whether the Indonesian Navy is authorized to inspect (genuine) Indonesian fishing boats, and threaten to tow the vessels ashore and detain them at Tanjung Priok port, which usually does not happen in the end.",
