Where as a result of the lack of the absence of certainty of territorial boundaries based on legal aspects, Indonesia and Malaysia were forced to accept the case of case, namely the case of Sipadan and Ligitan Islands. The settlement of cases that could not be resolved through negotiations, led the two countries to agree to settle the case through the International Court of Justice.
