Abstract

Recently, maritime crime in Southeast Asia has been complicated. Piracy and smuggling are prominent problems in the East Sea. From 2013 to 2022, Southeast Asia experienced 907 incidents of piracy and armed robbery at sea against ships. These difficulties and challenges require the prevention and combat of maritime crime to have an appropriate cooperation mode between maritime law enforcement forces of Southeast Asian countries. From the requirements of practice, the article analyzes the issue of cooperation in implementing international law on marine crime prevention by the Coast Guard forces of Southeast Asian countries based on building a legal framework and proposing solutions.
