RAKYAT NEWS– The Indonesian delegation, through the Ministry of Transportation (Kemenhub), emphasized the importance of maritime safety interventions at the 132nd session of the International Maritime Organization (IMO) Council held in London, England.
“On the fourth day of the IMO Council 132 session at IMO Headquarters in London, Thursday (11/7), the Indonesian delegation delivered several interventions related to maritime safety,” said Director of Shipping and Maritime Affairs at Kemenhub, Hendri Ginting, in a statement on Friday.
Ginting expressed appreciation to the IMO Secretary-General for updates on the Global Integrated Shipping Information System (GISIS) review and data management projects.
“In this context, Indonesia emphasized that the alignment of GISIS improvements with the ongoing development of the Maritime Autonomous Surface Ships (MASS) Code should be considered,” Ginting stated.
He explained that there are two main areas where alignment can be achieved. First, regarding the modules under GISIS.
Indonesia views the ongoing development of the MASS Code as a positive step for the operation of autonomous ships.
“Therefore, we believe the GISIS modules, particularly the Maritime Casualties and Incident Module, can be strengthened by incorporating data from MASS ships, thus providing a better understanding of incidents involving autonomous ships,” he added.
Second, the implementation of the Maritime Single Window (MSW) and MASS. Ginting said Indonesia believes that MSW in GISIS can significantly enhance port clearance for cargo ships using the MASS system.
