Abstract

The construction of sea toll roads is one of the manifestations of President Jokowi’s superior program for strengthening Indonesia’s identity as a maritime country and to develop Indonesia as a whole from west to east. The necessity for sea toll road construction aims to improve the distribution of goods and trade commodities, particularly for the purpose of balancing the economic gap between the western and eastern regions of Indonesia. On the other hand, the construction of sea toll roads could possibly have an impact on archaeological objects, especially the remains of historic shipwrecks that have sunk and spread in several Indonesian territorial waters. Moreover, some of these remains are located on or adjacent to sea lane paths which will indirectly be affected by the deepening of the program in the context of the sea toll road construction. This paper aims to disseminate information about the tangible proofs of Indonesian cultural richness and long maritime history that have not been fully revealed and are threatened by potential damage and destruction if no necessary action is taken. Most importantly, this paper attempts to propose a strategy for constructing sea toll roads by taking into account the use and preservation of potential historical shipwreck remains which are still scattered in several territorial waters of Indonesia.

Bahasa Abstract

Pembangunan tol laut merupakan salah satu perwujudan program unggulan Nawacita Presiden Jokowi dalam rangka memperkuat jati diri Indonesia sebagai negara maritim dan membangun Indonesia secara menyeluruh dari barat hingga ke timur. Kebutuhan pembangunan tol laut ini adalah untuk meningkatkan distribusi barang dalam rangka menyeimbangkan kesenjangan perekonomian wilayah barat dan timur. Namun, pembangunan tol laut dapat berdampak pada objek arkeologis berupa tinggalan kapal asing bersejarah yang tenggelam dan tersebar di beberapa wilayah perairan Indonesia. Terlebih, beberapa tinggalan itu berada atau berdekatan dengan jalur Alur Laut yang secara tidak langsung akan terkena dampak dari program pendalaman alur dalam rangka pembangunan jalur tol laut. Tulisan ini bertujuan untuk menyampaikan informasi mengenai potensi kekayaan budaya dan sejarah maritim Indonesia yang belum terungkap seutuhnya dan berpotensi mengalami kerusakan dan kehancuran apabila tidak menjadi perhatian. Metode survei atau pengumpulan data tinggalan bangkai kapal bersejarah beserta muatannya telah dilakukan di perairan Indonesia. Sebagai hasilnya, tulisan ini mencoba untuk mengilustrasikan strategi pembangunan tol laut dengan tetap memperhatikan pemanfaatan dan pelestarian potensi tinggalan kapal bersejarah yang tersebar di beberapa wilayah perairan Indonesia.
