Abstract The Malacca Strait as one of the main routes of world trade has the potential for the emergence of transnational crime. The strategic location of the Malacca Strait makes it fragile and vulnerable to piracy practices. The occurrence of this piracy has the potential to disrupt shipping lane traffic so that shipping safety is threatened and causes substantial losses for ship owners. But it is not only piracy that causes considerable losses, there is other factor that are also very influential besides piracy, namely accidents. One of the causes of accidents is the flow of ship traffic that is too crowded and is not immediately addressed. Therefore, it is necessary to increase the safety of ship traffic, one of which can be by increasing the Vessel Traffic Service (VTS). Vessel Traffic Service (VTS) serves to help provide reports on navigational and meteorological information for ships crossing a water. If the Vessel Traffic Service (VTS) is implemented and improved in the Malacca Strait, it is hoped that accidents and piracy can be minimized. This study aims to analyze the traffic congestion of ships in the Straits of Malacca and Singapore to optimize maritime security and safety and improve the Vessel Traffic System (VTS) in these straits. From the results of the analysis obtained data in the Strait of Malacca-Singapore there is an average trend of increasing the volume of ship traffic every year by 2% and has the potential to cause a lot of ship traffic. This data is very useful in order to improve the Vessel Traffic System (VTS) in the Malacca-Singapore Strait so that this traffic jam can be overcome.
