Abstract

This article analyzes the reorientation of the United Kingdom’s foreign policy towards the Indo-Pacific during 2021–2023. Gideon Rose’s neoclassical realism serves as the analytical framework, applying concepts of balance of power and domestic politics. This article argues that both domestic and regional systemic factors drive the foreign policy reorientation. It highlights how internal dynamics, particularly domestic politics, as well as external pressures such as geopolitical competition and security in the Indo-Pacific shape the United Kingdom’s strategic orientation. Employing an explanatory qualitative approach, this article integrates literature review and expert interviews to provide deeper insights into the United Kingdom’s foreign policy. The objective is to explain how domestic conditions and international structures interact to influence the reorientation of focus of the United Kingdom’s foreign policy. Research findings reveal that the United Kingdom seeks economic and trade opportunities in the Indo-Pacific while reinforcing its strategic position globally. Evidence of this policy reorientation appears in United Kingdom’s participation in alliances like AUKUS and in expanding economic cooperation with Indo-Pacific states.

Abstract

Indonesia and Australia are neighboring countries with fluctuate bilateral relations. In 2018, they formed Indonesia-Australia Comprehensive Strategic Partnership (IA-CSP) to enhance their partnerships in strategic sectors for the stability of regional security in the Indo-Pacific. However, the problem came up in 2021 when Australia established trilateral defense cooperation AUKUS with the United Kingdom and the United States. This cooperation facilitates Australia to have nuclear-powered submarines to strengthen its military power. This cooperation has raised the eyebrows of Indonesia as it is against IA-CSP’s pillars, particularly pillar on securing the two countries and the region’s shared interest, and pillar on contributing to Indo-Pacific stability and prosperity. Therefore, Indonesia regretted Australia’s participation in AUKUS because the former deemed the latter to have violated its commitment on IA-CSP. This research aims to analyze IA-CSP’s opportunities and challenges post-establishment of AUKUS. It used a qualitative method, with interviews and literature review in place to collect data. The authors used regional security complex theory and strategic partnership concept for analysis. This research found that AUKUS does not disrupt the implementation of IA-CSP because the cooperation instead provides opportunities that Indonesia can utilize for its national interest. However, AUKUS poses challenges that Indonesia needs to tackle.

Abstract

This community service activity aimed to improve the self-confidence and public speaking skills of vocational high school students in the digital era. The main problems faced by students included low self-confidence, anxiety when speaking in public, and limited understanding of effective communication techniques. The activity was conducted at SMK Muhammadiyah 9 Jakarta involving 80 students through a participatory approach consisting of lectures, discussions, demonstrations, and public speaking practice sessions. Evaluation was carried out through direct observation and performance assessment before and after the training. The results showed noticeable improvements across all assessed indicators. Students’ self-confidence increased from 45% to 80%, courage to perform in public increased from 40% to 82%, clarity of message delivery improved from 50% to 78%, speech organization increased from 48% to 75%, and nonverbal communication skills improved from 42% to 77%. These findings indicate that participatory and practice-based public speaking training effectively enhances students’ communication skills and self-confidence. The program is expected to contribute to the development of adaptive and communicative young generations who are better prepared for the demands of the digital era.
