A total of 10,260 kg of frozen octopus from Simeleu Island has successfully entered the Japanese market, marking the first export from the island. The success of the export is due to the collaboration between various stakeholders, including the Fish Quarantine, Quality Control and Safety of Fishery Products (BKIPM), the Simeuleu Regional Government, Perum Perindo, and the Directorate General of Strengthening the Competitiveness of Marine and Fishery Products (PDSPKP). The export was made possible by the issuance of a processing feasibility certificate (SKP) and a hazard analysis critical control point (HACCP) certificate. The Regent of Simeulue hopes that this will revive the marine and fisheries sector in the region, and the Minister of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries has invited business actors to apply good sanitation and hygiene in the production process and ensure that the fishery raw materials are not the result of illegal or destructive fishing activities.
