Abstract

Through South-South Cooperation, China develops opportunities for political and economic development in southern countries. This study wants to focus more on the influence of bilateral cooperation in the form of CPEC foreign aid by China in Pakistan, which influences Pakistan's domestic and foreign political policies related to the interests of the Chinese state. So the question of this study is how does CPEC aid affect the attitude of the Pakistani government that supports the Chinese government at the domestic level of Pakistan? In this research, the influence of Michel Foucault's theory of power will be explained. The use of deductive qualitative analysis, in which the researcher uses existing theories and then analyzes the data obtained with Michel Foucault's Power influence theory on China's foreign aid to Pakistan. The data collection technique through library studies is data collection by understanding and studying theories from various literature related to these cases. The results obtained from this study are the construction of Gwadar airport, which is more profitable for China. The Pakistani government tends to disregard the fate of the Uyghur ethnic group when UNHCR Pakistan does not extend the Uyghur refugee card, so that the Pakistani government deports the refugees. Then, the emergence of bride trafficking cases after easy access between China and Pakistan resulted in public protests and dissatisfaction with the ongoing CPEC cooperation, which was considered asymmetrical.

Abstract

Vietnam has been successful in attracting US investment in the semiconductor sector, as evidenced by the number of US chip companies opening factories there and by its acquisition of the International Technology Security and Innovation Fund (ITSI Fund). This makes Vietnam a key node in the global semiconductor supply chain due to the significant presence of US companies. Meanwhile, Indonesia has also been selected as a recipient of the ITSI Fund, but its implementation is still in the early stage, and US semiconductor companies have not yet invested in the country. This study aims to explain why Vietnam has succeeded in attracting US semiconductor investment and what lessons Indonesia can learn from this achievement. This study uses the Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) Theory from Schneider & Frey (1985) as an analytical tool to explain the success factors of Vietnam's semiconductor sector. This study uses a qualitative explanatory approach with a case study method, collecting data through document-based research and qualitative analysis. The findings indicate that Vietnam's success factors in the semiconductor sector lie in its progressive domestic economic development, stable domestic politics, and a coherent semiconductor policy. On the other hand, Indonesia faces various challenges in developing its semiconductor industry, including an ineffective bureaucracy, high levels of corruption, and the absence of a long-term roadmap for semiconductor industry development. Therefore, Indonesia can learn from several factors in Vietnam's success, particularly in establishing political stability, developing long-term planning, and increasing semiconductor cooperation with the United States.

Abstract

The signing of the Indonesia-Australia Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (IA-CEPA) in 2019 and its ratification by Indonesia in 2020 marked a significant milestone in the economic relationship between the two nations. IA-CEPA goes beyond mere trade cooperation, encompassing a broader spectrum of economic collaboration across diverse sectors. However, the IA-CEPA negotiation process was challenging, notably a lengthy three-year hiatus from 2013 to 2016. This article delves into the reasons behind Indonesia's decision to persevere with IA-CEPA negotiations despite the extended delay, employing a qualitative methodology with a deductive approach using negotiation theory. The study finds that Indonesia's continued engagement stemmed from recognizing IA-CEPA as a crucial economic deal for expanding market access to Australia and attracting investment into Indonesia. Despite facing domestic political hurdles and shifts then, Indonesia maintained its commitment to the agreement, viewing it as an important step in strengthening the strategic partnership between the two countries.
