The Ministry of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries (KKP) in Indonesia is urging fish medicine producers to obtain a Good Fish Medicine Manufacturing Practice (CPOIB) certificate and register their products. The Director General of Aquaculture, Tb Haeru Rahayu, said that registered fish medicine must go through tests and evaluations to meet safety, quality, and efficacy standards. The Serang Fish and Environmental Health Testing Center (BPKIL) is the only Technical Implementation Unit of the Directorate General of Aquaculture that can test the feasibility of fish medication. The KKP Minister, Sakti Wahyu Trenggono, has previously stated that BPKIL Serang is one of the pillars of the KKP as it covers everything from fish diseases, fish medicine, residues, and fish feed to the aquaculture environment.
