Abstract
The mangrove forests across five districts in West Java—Bekasi, Karawang, Subang, Indramayu, and Cirebon—cover over 43,000 hectares but are severely degraded, with about 90% damaged. This decline is driven by land conversion and poor water quality which also threatens coral reefs and increases flooding risks. Current efforts by communities, private sectors, and government lack effective coordination, leading to prolonged environmental problems. Mangroves offer high economic potential, but sustainable and innovative management is critical. The study aimed to assess the sustainability status using the multidimensional scaling (MDS) method with Rapfish. Results show that all surveyed areas score below 50 on the sustainability index, with an overall score of 46.74%, indicating a "less sustainable" classification.
