SINGAPORE, Aug. 31 (UPI) -- Singapore and Indonesia signed an agreement Tuesday settling the border between their territorial waters.
The Indonesian Embassy in Singapore said the agreement is based on the U.N. Convention on the Law of the Sea and other international treaties on maritime borders. The two countries announced the agreement through their official news agencies, Antara in Indonesia and Bernama in Singapore.
The two countries are separated by the narrow Singapore Strait, the entrance to Singapore's port.
The documents signed by Singapore Foreign Affairs Minister George Yeo and the Indonesian minister, Marty M. Natalegawa, fixe the western portion of the boundary. The eastern part involves negotiations between both countries and Malaysia.
Officials said the agreement will allow both countries to carry out their work of policing the Singapore Strait and aiding navigation more effectively.
