Abstract

The Strait of Malacca has been a strategic route for the meeting of economic, cultural, ideological and political interests since thousands of years ago. One of the impacts of this strategic meeting was the emergence of Islamic powers in the form of large Islamic kingdoms in the early 9th century. The existence of the Islamic powers of the Malacca Strait was revealed through a search of both primary and secondary documents. The results of this study prove that the emergence of Islamic powers in the Malacca Strait occurred through economic and cultural diplomacy, making it easier to strengthen the influence of Islamic ideology among the people along the Malacca Strait, both in Sumatra and Peninsular Malaysia. This strong and widespread influence of the Islamic religion became the basis for the establishment of large kingdoms which formed governments based on Islamic political principles. The clash of economic, cultural, ideological and political interests continued between the Islamic forces of the Malacca Strait and the Western powers as new arrivals which ended with the collapse of the Islamic forces of the Malacca Strait.

Abstract

The right to health can be fulfilled by eliminating the threat of stunting, which is primarily influenced by two major variables, poverty and the low level of education among women aged over 15. This paper analyzes the relationship between poverty, the duration of women’s education, and the prevalence of stunting in Riau Province. Women’s formal education has proven to play a critical role in reducing stunting rates by enhancing knowledge about nutrition and health. Poverty which entraps families becomes the main barrier to accessing education. A qualitative research method was employed, with data gathered through interviews, literature reviews, journals, and relevant media sources. The results indicate that basic literacy and numeracy skills acquired by women in school increase their awareness and capacity to prevent and manage stunting, thereby positively impacting the future of their children.

Abstract

This article examines Tesso Nilo National Park (TNTN) in Riau Province as a critical case study of the failure of subnational climate and environmental governance in Indonesia. The real-world situation in TNTN reveals a stark gap between diplomatic rhetoric and implementation on the ground. The proliferation of illegal oil palm plantations, massive deforestation, and recurring forest fires have reduced natural forest cover to less than 20 percent, released billions of tons of stored carbon, and eroded critical habitat, including for Sumatran elephants. The study adopts a qualitative case study design focused on TNTN, drawing on policy documents, government reports, NGO publications, and academic literature. The analysis is framed by the concepts of environmental diplomacy, multi-level governance, and climate governance failure. The findings suggest that weak vertical coordination, large-scale land-use changes driven by corporate and local actors, and increasing human-wildlife conflict reveal a systemic failure in translating national and international climate and conservation commitments into local outcomes. Therefore, the park represents a significant gap in Indonesia's environmental diplomacy efforts. In response, this article proposes an alternative, bottom-up model of environmental diplomacy that strengthens local actors through community-based conservation, community-based ecotourism, and broader civil society participation in decision-making.
