Maritime Risk Context

Voyages from Makassar in Indonesia navigate the world's busiest shipping lanes, anchored by the Strait of Malacca — a 550-mile corridor through which roughly 100,000 vessels transit annually. The Malacca and Singapore Straits remain a persistent piracy hotspot, with ReCAAP recording dozens of incidents per year; most are low-level opportunistic theft at anchor, but the geographic concentration demands attention in any voyage risk model. Waters off eastern Sabah and the Sulu Sea present a more severe kidnap-for-ransom threat. PSC inspection regimes vary substantially across ASEAN members, and the Tokyo MOU detention data identifies which flags and vessel types face elevated scrutiny in the region.

Vessel Mix

No port-call data observed at Makassar in the last 180 days. ArcNautical's AIS coverage focuses on the world's commercial shipping lanes; smaller or specialised ports may not register sufficient traffic for a meaningful breakdown.

Port State Control Context

Makassar falls under the Tokyo MoU. The Tokyo Memorandum of Understanding (Asia-Pacific) maintains the most active publicly-available regional PSC programme. Across the last 24 months, the Tokyo MoU detention dataset records 5,331 distinct vessel detentions (sourced from OpenSanctions, as of 2026-06-14). Vessel-level detention probability is computed by ArcNautical using flag performance, vessel age, deficiency history, and ownership opacity.
