Abstract:	"The great majority of centralized management of coral reef ecosystem in Indonesia has failed to meet its management objective. The marine protected areas (MPAs) serving as the main way of protecting the ecosystems could not be an effective tool to halt blast-fishing and other activities regarded as the main factor for reef degradation. As many parties have been facing a frustration the community of Gili Indah has successfully applied a local governance approach. This paper aims at describing and analyzing the mechanism of local governance, the process of institutional change, the influential factors of the success of the governance while looking at the lacks that should likely be still improved."
