Abstract

Abstract: Small island in North Sulawesi facing a lot of influences from outside developed island, including from Philippines. This situation gives regional leakages for these islands and need to be mitigated in order to do not getting more loss and leakages. This study is trying a better solution to face this kind of problems. The study using an approach of ecosystem based business development. With this approach, we found that local ocean economics would be an answer toward small island development in North Sulawesi. By strengthen and developed local ocean economics, these small island could more better standing position to overcome the regional leakages. Their local ocean economics, such as fisheries, tourism based coastal and marine ecosystem, sea transportation, ocean based industry, ocean based infrastructure, and ocean based services, would be the best potential to improve their local economic development of the small islands in North Sulawesi. May, the result study by using this approach would be more benefit to be replicated in other small islands in Indonesia, especially which facing regional leakages from other countries.
