Dozens of ships waiting to enter Singapore have been seized over the last year by the Indonesian navy for illegally anchoring in its waters, with most being released after ship owners made unofficial payments
Most of the captains were freed after a few weeks once ship owners made unofficial payments to navy intermediaries of between $300,000 and $400,000, the people said.
I'm surprised they've been getting away with doing this to foreign companies.

Sounds like a bunch of corrupt navy officials have made this little part of the sea their own fiefdom. This can't be good for business.
