Abstract

This article examines the pathways through which Indonesian nationals became connected to the recruitment ecosystem of Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP) in Yemen during 2020–2024 and develops a counterintelligence-based prevention framework to mitigate such transnational mobilization. Using a qualitative instrumental case study design, the research draws on semi-structured interviews with eleven key informants, documentary analysis, court-related materials, open-source intelligence, and thematic coding supported by NVivo 12. The findings show that Indonesian involvement in the AQAP ecosystem cannot be explained solely by ideological indoctrination. Instead, it emerges from the interaction of personal significance crises, jihadist narratives, social-religious networks, and structural opportunities created by legal or semi-legal mobility channels. Operationally, the mobilization process reflects the adaptation of intelligence tradecraft by non-state actors, including administrative cover, compartmentation, social embedding, and selective communication. The article argues that prevention requires an integrated counterintelligence model that combines early detection, network disruption, administrative-diplomatic screening, and interagency data fusion. This framework highlights the need to move beyond post-incident law enforcement and toward preventive, accountable, and intelligence-led intervention across the radicalization–facilitation–mobility continuum.

Abstract

The declaration of Jamaah Islamiyah’s dissolution on 30 June 2024 marked an important turning point in Indonesia’s counterterrorism landscape. This article analyses the impact of the dissolution on the continuity of former Jamaah Islamiyah members’ activities and its implications for Indonesia’s national security. This study uses a qualitative approach based on in-depth interviews with former Jamaah Islamiyah members, law enforcement and intelligence officials, and academics, supported by indirect observation and document studies. The analysis is conducted through data condensation, data display, conclusion drawing, verification, and triangulation. The findings show that Jamaah Islamiyah’s dissolution represents the culmination of a collective deradicalisation process, indicated by the cessation of violence, ideological correction, demilitarisation of clandestine and military structures, and the transition of former members’ activities into legal social, educational, and religious domains. From a national security perspective, the dissolution has significantly reduced the operational threat of Jamaah Islamiyah as a structured terrorist organisation. However, it has not automatically eliminated residual challenges related to former members, affiliated educational institutions, social assets, and long-term ideological integration. Therefore, post-dissolution counterterrorism policy should move beyond repressive measures and emphasise sustained reintegration, early detection, institutional supervision, and socio-economic empowerment.

Abstract

Bangladesh's counter-terrorism architecture has undergone major changes since the Holey Artisan Bakery attack of 2016 and more recently, the proliferation of anti-violent extremism (AVE) groups, especially police and security forces, as well as the increasing cooperation between government agencies and non-governmental groups in tackling violent extremism. Throughout the study, a mixed-methods explanatory design is used. Institutional and documentary analysis focuses on the process of legal, organizational and operational reform as a result of the attack on Holey Artisan Bakery in 2016, and a cross sectional survey with 150 purposively selected respondents from various segments including police officers, NGO practitioners, community leaders, and residents in Dhaka, Chittagong, Rajshahi and Sylhet divisions offers quantitative evidence on the perceived effectiveness of police-initiated actions and NGO-run preventive activities in reducing extremism. Descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation and multiple linear regression with two control variables (age and residence division) were used in analyzing survey data in SPSS version 26. Cronbach's α for the three composite scales was acceptable (ranging from .78 to .86). The regression model explains 66% of the variance in perceived reduction of extremism (R² = .66, adjusted R² = .65, F(4, 145) = 70.31, p < .001). The standardized coefficients show that the police efforts (β = .52, p < .001) and the preventive activities run by NGOs (β = .38, p < .001) both significantly affect extremism, with the former having the greater effect. Institutional findings reveal the growing centralisation of specialist units, like the Counter Terrorism and Transnational Crime (CTTC) Unit and the Anti-Terrorism Unit (ATU), the enhanced inter-agency intelligence sharing and the slow progress in the implementation of community policing. The role of NGOs ranges from grassroots mobilisation, youth empowerment, counter-narrative development, to reintegration of formerly radicalised people. The results suggest a mixed approach of hard and soft counter-terrorism measures, with hard security measures complementing soft ones based on the community. But these gains are not sustainable due to ongoing human rights concerns, politicization of counter-terrorism legislation, inter-agency coordination issues and a lack of capacity to engage with digital and transnational threats. The paper suggests that Bangladesh needs to build its capability against large-scale attacks by establishing institutional accountability, formalizing police-NGO cooperation and institutional engagement with communities.

Abstract

The unauthorized circulation and non-medical consumption of illegal Trihexyphenidyl (THD)—a prescription anticholinergic agent—have escalated into a multidimensional threat directly undermining human security, public health, and social stability within Indonesia. This study aims to structurally analyze the socio-legal mechanics of illegal Trihexyphenidyl trafficking and evaluate the operational strategies executed by the Directorate of Drug and Food Intelligence of the Indonesian Food and Drug Authority (BPOM). Adopting a post-positivist qualitative descriptive framework, primary data was collected through extensive, semi-structured interviews with eight high-level informants across the State Intelligence Agency (BIN); BPOM’s intelligence and enforcement directorates; the National Narcotics Board (BNN); the Ministry of Health; medical toxicologists; and criminologists, complemented by field observations of underground retail nodes. Data processing utilized thematic triangulation synthesized with the standardized framework of the Intelligence Cycle. The results indicate that the market expansion of illegal Trihexyphenidyl operates as a classic "rational choice" mechanism, where the intersection of low economic cost (Rp1,500–Rp2,000 per tablet), pseudo-narcotic euphoric output, easy online-offline access, and a statutory legal vacuum for consumption under Law No. 17 of 2023 on Health creates an optimization model for illicit syndicates. The study demonstrates that while BPOM has successfully integrated early detection and warning protocols via cyber crawls and inter-agency collaboration, significant friction persists within the "Means" domain due to statutory limitations restricting BPOM's access to wiretapping and tactical signal triangulation equipment (Direct Finder) under Permen Kominfo No. 9 of 2018. The paper concludes by presenting a strategic blueprint using the Lykke Model, highlighting the necessity of an AI-driven, NLP-equipped cyber crawling engine; joint special operational taskforces (Satgassus); and immediate legislative revisions to secure national human resilience

Abstract

The increasing complexity of national security threats in the digital era requires intelligence systems capable of conducting rapid, precise, and predictive analysis. This paper examines how remote sensing big data analysis can enhance strategic intelligence capability in national security by integrating satellite imagery, geospatial data, artificial intelligence, machine learning, deep learning, and cybersecurity mechanisms. Using a qualitative literature review approach, this study analyzes secondary sources from peer-reviewed journals, cybersecurity studies, government-related reports, and technology documents relevant to remote sensing and big data analytics. The findings show that remote sensing big data strengthens strategic intelligence by improving situational awareness, supporting early warning, detecting military and environmental changes, monitoring critical infrastructure, and enabling faster strategic decision-making. However, the effectiveness of this technology depends on data security, system reliability, inter-agency coordination, and the integration of cybersecurity mechanisms such as intrusion detection systems, federated learning, blockchain, and secure data governance. Therefore, remote sensing big data should be developed as an integrated intelligence ecosystem that combines advanced geospatial analytics, real-time data processing, cyber resilience, and institutional coordination to support national security.

Abstract

Indonesia's tropical forests are vital to both ecological balance and national security. However, increasing forest fires exacerbated by climate change and human activities pose multifaceted threats, including environmental degradation, public health crises, and geopolitical instability. Remote sensing technologies offer strategic capabilities for early detection and management of such fires. This study employed a qualitative literature review approach supported by a structured brainstorming process to examine how remote sensing data contribute to forest fire mitigation. Key dimensions explored include technology classifications, early warning mechanisms, risk assessment, and post-disaster recovery strategies. Findings reveal that remote sensing—via satellite imagery, thermal sensors, and UAVs—enhances early fire detection, enables real-time monitoring, supports effective fire risk mapping, and informs rehabilitation planning. The study also highlights how forest fires can escalate into national security issues through economic disruption, social dislocation, and cross-border haze diplomacy. Remote sensing constitutes a strategic asset in Indonesia’s environmental security infrastructure. Its integration into national policy, combined with inter-agency collaboration and public education, can significantly improve fire mitigation outcomes and safeguard national interests. This article links remote sensing not only to environmental management but also to national security responses, offering an interdisciplinary framework for future policy formulation.

Abstract

This study analyzes the impact of the United States’ import tariff increase policy on Indonesia’s national interests, with the objectives of assessing the level of threat using Prunckun’s Threat Theory and formulating product and export market development strategies based on economic intelligence through the Ansoff Matrix. This research employs a qualitative method utilizing in-depth interviews, focus group discussions, and secondary data on Indonesia–US export–import activities for the 2020–2024 period, which are analyzed through stages of data reduction, data presentation, and validation. The findings indicate that the threat coefficient falls into the high category due to the combination of the United States’ protectionist intent and its strong economic, financial, and regulatory capacities, thereby necessitating a multi-layered strategy encompassing the strengthening of market penetration in the US, market development, innovation of value-added and green-standard products, and long-term diversification, all supported by an economic intelligence–based early detection and early warning system.
