This paper aims to evaluate the implementation of Maritime Security Policy in
Indonesia. While the issues of maritime security are varied, this paper focuses only on three
issues in maritime security, which include maritime delimitation, Illegal Unreported and
Unregulated (IUU Fishing) and Piracy. It is argued that IUU Fishing as well as piracy and any
other maritime security threats emerged due to unclear maritime delimitation. Indonesia is the
biggest archipelagic state in the world neighboring with ten coastal states, which each of them
needs clear maritime delimitation. While Indonesia has done much in fixing its maritime
delimitation, yet much remain to be done. Furthermore, while various international legal
framework has been established relating to IUU Fishing, unfortunately, national laws
concerning IUU Fishing still recall for never ending debates. Similar to this, national laws in
piracy is still out of date since such laws still regulated under Criminal Laws Code/ Kitab
Undang-Undang Hukum Pidana (KUHP), which was adopted from Dutch laws many decades
ago. Such conditions leads to insufficient policy implementation. This paper adopts a
qualitative research method. Data collected from relevant informant and analysed using policy
implementation theory. It is submitted that in ensuring policy implementation, existing policies
relating to maritime security, especially IUU Fishing as well as piracy needs to be revisited and
revised to be in accordance with international policies and legal framework
