Abstract

This research focuses on the growing importance of health security in Indonesia-Timor Leste border diplomacy after the Covid-19 pandemic. This study uses qualitative methods to reveal a paradigm shift from traditional security to non-traditional security, especially health. The data comes from observations and documents collected in border areas related to health security in response to cross-border threats in both countries. The community-based health security perspective is used to analyze the expansion of health threats and the role of border diplomacy in addressing public health threats. This analysis reveals three important issues: (1) redefining the border security paradigm, (2) positioning border health security diplomacy as a collaborative mechanism, and (3) the participation of border communities in border security diplomacy. This research makes an important contribution to the development of a collaborative model of border health security diplomacy through community participation in improving health security in the border areas of the two countries. The findings offer an alternative health security policy in border diplomacy between Indonesia and Timor Leste and other border areas in Indonesia. Keywords: Border health security, Health diplomacy, Community empowerment, Indonesia-Timor Leste, Covid-19 Penelitian ini berfokus pada semakin pentingnya keamanan kesehatan dalam diplomasi perbatasan Indonesia-Timor Leste pasca pandemi Covid-19. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif untuk mengungkapkan pergeseran paradigma dari keamanan tradisional ke keamanan non-tradisional, khususnya kesehatan. Data tersebut berasal dari pengamatan dan dokumen yang dikumpulkan di daerah perbatasan terkait keamanan kesehatan dalam menanggapi ancaman lintas batas di kedua negara. Perspektif keamanan kesehatan berbasis masyarakat digunakan untuk menganalisis perluasan ancaman kesehatan dan peran diplomasi perbatasan dalam mengatasi ancaman kesehatan masyarakat. Analisis ini mengungkapkan tiga isu penting: (1) mendefinisikan kembali paradigma keamanan perbatasan, (2) memposisikan diplomasi keamanan kesehatan perbatasan sebagai mekanisme kolaboratif, dan (3) partisipasi masyarakat perbatasan dalam diplomasi keamanan perbatasan. Penelitian ini memberikan kontribusi penting bagi pengembangan model kolaboratif diplomasi keamanan kesehatan perbatasan melalui partisipasi masyarakat dalam meningkatkan keamanan kesehatan di wilayah perbatasan kedua negara. Temuan ini menawarkan alternatif kebijakan keamanan kesehatan dalam diplomasi perbatasan antara Indonesia dan Timor Leste dan daerah perbatasan lainnya di Indonesia.

Abstract

Indonesia's nickel downstream policy represents a strategic shift in its natural resource governance, characterized by its focus on adding value to raw nickel through domestic processing. We propose a securitisation/resource security framework to perspective to understand Indonesia's nickel downstream policy. Securitisation of natural resource is a process in which the government frames natural resources as an existential threat to state interests, which varies in nature and is highly dependent on certain conditions. This policy arises when natural resource problems can have an impact on economic security, regime security and/or geopolitical problems in a country. From the perspective of securitisation, the nickel downstream policy is one of the Indonesian government's responses to the perception of threats to economic security, regime/government security and security from geopolitical threats that arise both from the domestic and international levels. The research reveals that the Indonesian government has strategically employed securitization narratives to justify the measures, such as the export ban on raw nickel. These narratives highlight the critical role of nickel in driving economic growth, securing regime legitimacy, and navigating geopolitical competition in the context of the global clean energy transition. By integrating insights from securitisation theory, this study contributes to a deeper understanding of how natural resources are constructed as security issues in developing economies. It underscores the need for balancing economic and geopolitical ambitions with environmental and social considerations, offering a framework for analysing resource policies amid global energy transitions and shifting geopolitical dynamics.

Abstract

In order to achieve net zero emission and national energy resilience BAPETEN has announced that the Indonesian government plans to build a new nuclear power plant by 2039. While the new plans to build a new nuclear power plant by 2039 remains to be seen, this article aims at revisiting the question of why did Indonesia, under President Yudhoyono administration fail to build its first nuclear power plant in Muria, Jepara. This article argues the failure to build the first nuclear power plant was caused by strong resistance to the nuclear power plant from the civil society movements due to the lack of trust towards the government in handling the risks of nuclear. Hence, any plans to build nuclear power plant in Indonesia in the future should address attentions to public trust regarding the risks of the using of nuclear energy.
