Abstract

— This study examines the 2026 conflict between the United States and Venezuela through the lenses of transformational leadership, realism in international relations, crisis decision-making, and asymmetric warfare. Using a qualitative method, the research analyzes the chronology of the conflict from the pre-crisis phase, the outbreak of military confrontation, and its post-conflict regional and global repercussions. The findings show that the conflict was driven by the intersection of geopolitical rivalry, energy security, military pressure, and ideological contestation. From a leadership perspective, Donald Trump and Nicolás Maduro demonstrated contrasting but equally decisive leadership styles in responding to crisis conditions. From a realist perspective, the conflict reflected the pursuit of national interests, power projection, and the struggle to preserve regional influence. The study also finds that crisis decision-making under time pressure and uncertainty shaped rapid strategic choices on both sides, while Venezuela’s response illustrated the relevance of asymmetric warfare in confronting a militarily superior adversary. Furthermore, the conflict generated humanitarian, diplomatic, and energy-related consequences that extended beyond the two states. For Indonesia, particularly the Navy, the case offers important lessons on maritime readiness, joint operations, defense diplomacy, and post-conflict stabilization.

Abstract

— The development of modern defense technology has become a critical component of national security strategy in responding to increasingly complex and multidomain threats. This study examines the prioritization of defense technology development to support the protection of Strategic Vital Areas of the Indonesian Navy against both military and non-military threats. Using an integrated methodological approach, the study combines the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) and SWOT analysis to generate objective and strategic recommendations. The AHP results indicate that cyber resilience is the highest priority, surpassing C-ISR and UAV technologies, highlighting its fundamental role in ensuring the effectiveness of modern network-centric defense systems. Without robust cyber capabilities, other defense technologies are vulnerable to disruption and degradation. Furthermore, the SWOT analysis positions the strategy within the W–O (turnaround) quadrant, emphasizing the need to leverage external opportunities to overcome internal limitations. The recommended strategies include developing an integrated cyber defense architecture, enhancing interoperability through international cooperation, strengthening domestic defense industry capabilities, and implementing layered cyber defense systems. Overall, this study underscores the importance of cyber resilience as the backbone of adaptive, integrated, and sustainable defense capabilities to safeguard national sovereignty in the era of asymmetric and hybrid threats.

Abstract

The free nutritious meal program introduced by the Indonesian government under the Prabowo–Gibran administration represents a strategic policy aimed at improving children’s nutritional status, enhancing educational outcomes, and strengthening national resilience. This study examines the challenges and strategic role of human resource planning in supporting the implementation of the program. Using a qualitative approach, the research identifies three major issues: limited human resource competencies, inefficient logistics management, and suboptimal supervision and monitoring systems. The findings reveal that inadequate skilled personnel and weak coordination across the supply chain hinder the effectiveness of food distribution, particularly in remote areas. Furthermore, the absence of an integrated monitoring system reduces the program’s impact on improving children's nutrition. The study highlights the strategic contribution of the Indonesian Navy in addressing these challenges through comprehensive human resource planning, including capacity building, structured training, cross-sectoral logistics coordination, and technology-based monitoring systems. Strengthening these aspects is essential to ensure the sustainability and effectiveness of the program, which ultimately contributes to the development of a healthy, productive generation and supports a resilient national defense system.
