Revitalization Concept Of Automatic Position Monitoring Information System (SIPPO) On Vessels Security Operations On The Indonesia-Malaysia Border

Abstract

Indonesia has sea borders with 10 countries, of which one that is still in dispute is the waters of the Ambalat Block. The Indonesia-Malaysia border security operation is one of the operations carried out by the Naval Base. The vast waters of the Ambalat block require an integrated monitoring system between the Navy Ship and the nearest base/station. Therefore, it is necessary to revitalize the use of SIPPO for Naval Ship elements in sea operations. This underlies the researcher to carry out research with the formulation of the problem "How to revitalize the use of automatic position coastal information system technology of Naval Ship elements to support Indonesia-Malaysia border security operations." This research was conducted to be able to explore more deeply things that are not yet widely known and analyze Navy regulations as guidelines for the reuse of SIPPO and regulations for the use of SIPPO equipment on Navy Ships and the advantages of using SIPPO in carrying out Indonesia-Malaysia border security operations. Data collection was obtained from direct interviews with sources and means of remote communication with informants who were divided into regulators, operators, and observers. The data obtained was then processed using Nvivo 12 software and then analyzed using Soft System Methodology (SSM). The results showed that the creation of a new Navy regulation as a guideline for the reuse of SIPPO in sea operations is needed to revitalize the device and in the regulation, there must be sanctions given to Navy Ship operators who do not activate the SIPPO device because this equipment has advantages as one of the tools that can integrate communication and monitoring between stations/bases on land and between fellow Navy ships so that it can help make decisions quickly, effectively and efficiently.
