In regions such as Pandeglang and Kebumen, the program provides essential infrastructure, including ice factories, cold storage, and Air Blast Freezers. These technologies, such as saltwater-based slurry ice, help fishermen maintain catch quality and manage oversupply to prevent price drops. The Indonesian Ministry of Marine Affairs and Fisheries is expanding the program to additional regions. In Aceh Jaya, Rp16.8 billion has been allocated for development in Panton Makmur, Gle Jong, and Ujong Muloh villages, utilizing both ‘hub’ and ‘buffer’ development models.
