climate change goes to ocean. Coral Triangle ocean, an area which covers the
ocean of six Coral Triangle countries (Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Solomon
Islands, Timor Leste, and Papua New Guinea) is also experienced the impacts of
climate change. By recalling the benefits given by Coral Triangle ocean for its
ecosystem and people, the environment on Coral Triangle ocean is important to be
protect from climate change impacts. The main goal of this research is to find out

Coral Triangle countries. The focus time of this research is on the year of 2009.
This research is a qualitative study and the sources of data are come from books,
government official websites, and government institution data. After analyzing,
the researcher find out that climate change impacts on Coral Triangle ocean is real
and threaten the future of its ecosystem and people on Coral Triangle countries.
