The case of the montara oil spill in the waters of the timor sea has a significant international relation, particularly between Indonesia and Australia. The case highlights the urgency of addressing international levels of Marine pollution issues. The impact of the montara oil spill has contaminated some 90,000 square miles [90,000 sq km] of timorese sea and killed more than 100,000 people who farm seaweed and fishermen in the east southeast nusa. Revenues from kelp and fishermen in the timor sea dropped between 50% and 85%, leading to significant social and economic costs. In the completion of the case, Indonesia and Australia continue to undertake numerous diplomatic efforts. In 2018, minister coordinator of field coordinator luhut binsar pandjaitan formed a montara task force of six people. At the end of 2019, the county lawyer foundation appointed an attorney from England to encourage the Australian government to rush to negotiate the case. The case also suggests that Indonesia and Australia's relationship patterns are mutually reinforcing, so both countries strive to maintain a stable relationship. However, the completion of the case also indicates that handling of deep-sea pollution issues at an international level requires close cooperation between countries and international organizations, such as the international maritime organization (imo), to achieve a just and sustainable solution. Thus, the case of the montara oil spill in timor sea waters has broad implications in the context of international relations, cross-country disputes, and global ocean environmental protection.Â
