		A survey of the reef structure associated with islands in the Pulau Seribu (Thousand Islands) chain (Indonesia) extending north-west into the Java Sea from Jakarta Bay on the north coast of Java was made in 1985 by a UNESCO training course looking at the effects of man-made influences.
		This island, an emergent rock-outcrop, was badly overgrazed to the extent that all surface groung-level vegetation appeared to have been removed leaving only bare soil with evidence of extensive silt run-off onto the adjacent reef.
		This brief comparison between reef conditions in the Thousand Islands region in the Java Sea, Indonesia, a relatively densely populated area and of Dravuni Island, Fiji, in the south Pacific is instructive.
