Indonesia's Minister of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries (KKP), Sakti Wahyu Trenggono, stated that shrimp exports haven't been affected by a recent case of radioactive Cesium-137 (Cs-137) contamination. During a parliamentary meeting, Trenggono explained that four containers of shrimp from PT Bahari Makmur Sejati (BMS Foods) were exposed to the radioactive material through airborne contamination. The source was a steel slab being melted at a nearby steel factory in Cikande, Banten. The minister clarified that the contamination wasn't from the shrimp farms themselves, which were located in Pandeglang and Lampung, and had tested clean.Source:  https://money.kompas.com/read/2025/09/03/221100626/ada-udang-ri-terpapar-radioaktif-kkp-sebut-ekspor-tak-terganggu?page=2.
