During the 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake and tsunami which devastated Aceh and the west coast of Sumatra , Susi Air , which at the time only consisted of two Cessna Grand Caravans , was one of the first responders which distributed food and supplies to victims in isolated areas of the disaster . During this period , Susi Air was routinely chartered in Aceh by NGOs for humanitarian relief missions . The revenues earned from the NGO Aceh missions enabled Susi Air to acquire new airplanes and expand its fleet to routes in Papua and Kalimantan . Susi Air is now the largest operator of Cessna Grand Caravans in the Asia Pacific region On 26 October 2014 , President Joko Widodo appointed Pudjiastuti as Minister of Marine Affairs and Fisheries under his 2014-2019 working cabinet . Prior to accepting her appointment , Pudjiastuti relinquished her position as President Director of PT ASI Pudjiastuti Marine Product and PT ASI Pudjiastuti Aviation
