Abstract

In order to implement the ASEAN single market on free flow of investment in the region, the delegations of ASEAN member states signed the ASEAN Comprehensive Investment Agreement (ACIA) on February 26th, 2009 in Cha-am, Thailand. Based on Article 1 (a) and Article 2 of the ACIA Agreement on the objectives of ACIA formation; the legal arrangements for foreign direct investment in this Agreement adhere to an investment regime—“a Free and Open Investment Regime” to achieve the ultimate purpose of economic integration in the ASEAN Economic Community. By implication of the Agreement, Indonesia should attempt to complement the investment legal arrangements in accordance with ACIA regulation. Based on analysis result of Act No. 25 of 2007 on Investment any several provisions are in line with the ACIA although any differences and improvement required. As regard the dispute settlement, both through the ACIA Agreement and the Indonesian Investment Law, there are 2 mechanism channels, the non-legal route (conciliation/negotiation) and the legal (court/arbitration). The option of dispute settlement by the mechanism depends on the concerned parties. Obviously, both of them regulate the legal protection for investors and national security where they belong.

Abstract

The need to manage conflict-related humanitarian conditions is the basis of intervention by international humanitarian organizations. Chief amongst these agencies is the United Nations International Children’s Emergency Fund (UNICEF), whose work is primarily about protecting children in armed conflicts. This agency has maintained a robust response to the humanitarian crisis in the Boko Haram insurgency, though its effort has not been without controversies. In 2018, it was suspended by the Nigerian Military on the allegation that it was working for the enemy side, an action which attracted widespread condemnation, as it was seen as an attempt by the government to give the agency a bad name. This has again thrown up the question of whether agencies such as UNICEF have the mandate ascribed to them under international law, and whether countries such as Nigeria, having signed up to this mandate, could refuse to live up to their international obligation. This article examines the framework of humanitarian intervention by UNICEF under international law, and what Nigeria’s role ought to be in this respect. It makes the argument that UNICEF’s intervention in the insurgency is not that of a meddlesome interloper, but part of an international legal framework for the protection of children’s rights in armed conflicts, which Nigeria has signed to, and which it must fulfil. Supporting UNICEF is in the best interest of the country, but doing otherwise could be inimical not just to the wellbeing of children in the insurgency, but also the country’s commitments under international law.
