Rogozhina, Nataliya Grigorievna. "Regional Security in South-East Asia in the Context of American “Indo-Pacific Region” Project." RUDN Journal of World History 12, no. 4 (December 15, 2020): 338–53. http://dx.doi.org/10.22363/2312-8127-2020-12-4-338-353.
Full textAbstract:
The article is devoted to the analysis of the position of the countries of South-East Asia on the construction of security architecture in the region within the framework of the Indo-Pacific region project in the format promoted by the USA. The article examines in detail the factors that determine the attitude of Southeast Asian countries to the American doctrine of free and open Indo-Pacific, which they assess as strategically risky and leading to deformation of the existing security system in the region with the loss of ASEAN (Association of Southeast Asian Nations) its central role in ensuring its stability. The response of the Southeast Asian countries to external challenges was the formation of their own concept Aseans - "Outlook On The Indo-Pacific, which reflects their views on the nature of the relationship within the emerging community. The author analyzes in detail the content of the ASEAN doctrine, which emphasizes the promotion of economic cooperation between the countries of the Pacific and Indian Oceans, in contrast to the geostrategic orientation of the American concept. Three main areas of cooperation are distinguished - maritime cooperation, the development of connectivity and interaction in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals. Offering such a format for engaging, ASAEN countries proceed from the need to strengthen trust between countries as the most important condition for maintaining peace and order in the region based on the traditional principles of ASEAN. These include: openness, transparency, inclusiveness, rules-based world order anchored on international law, respect for sovereignty, non-interference, equality, mutual trust and respect. ASEANs position remains unchanged in maintaining its central role in the evolution of the regional security architecture. Speaking from the position of multirealism, ASEAN sees a way to overcome the conflict of interests in the region in the context of escalating rivalry between the US and China, in creating a synergistic security system based on mechanisms associated with ASEAN. In the ASEAN concept, India-Pacific Region appears as a region of dialogue and cooperation, rather than competition, open to participation of China in the project. The author comes to the conclusion that such format is justified both from the point of view of strategic interests of the countries of Southeast Asia and the whole region, if the relations within it are based on the principles advocated by ASEAN. However, as the author emphasizes, the project proposed by the Southeast Asian countries raises many questions, the main of which is its feasibility in the context of the emerging split of the region along the axis of US-China rivalry for leadership in Asia. Nevertheless, as the author notes, the tendency to strengthen economic cooperation between the countries located in the basin of two oceans creates the basis for the growth of their interest in developing a stable security architecture.

Full textAbstract:
In Asia, SAARC (South Asian Association of Regional Cooperation), ASEAN (Association of South East Asian Nations) and GCC (Gulf Cooperation Council) are being considered as an active regional trading blocs although East Asian integration is on primary cooperation stage and BIMSTEC is treated as organised sub-regional trading bloc. The GCC has completed all criterion of economic integration except introduction of a single currency and ASEAN is advancing its optimum stage of monetary integration but the advancement of SAARC is halted by the shock of non-cooperation from Pakistan. Therefore, contribution of GCC in integrating Asian bloc is to scrutinise in a new outlook. In this paper, the author endeavours to show the impact of economic integration of Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) on the Asian economic integration in the sense that the process of integration of GCC with SAARC and ASEAN can accelerate the criterion of Asian integration process. Therefore, the author used cointegration and vector error correction model among the indicators of trade integration of exports such as Asian export share, intra export share of GCC, export concentration index of GCC, ASEAN’s export with GCC and SAARC’s export with GCC during 1995-2019. Similarly, the author applied same methodology among the trade indicator of imports such as Asian import share, intra import share of GCC, import concentration index of GCC, ASEAN’s import with GCC and SAARC’s import with GCC during the specified period. The findings revealed that Asian export share has long run significant causalities with SAARC and ASEAN export shares to GCC. Intra export share of GCC has long run causalities with SAARC and ASEAN export shares to GCC. The export concentration index of GCC has significant long run causalities with SAARC and ASEAN export shares to GCC respectively. Even, the short run causalities from export concentration index of GCC to intra export share of GCC, export share of ASEAN and SAARC with GCC and the short run causality from ASEAN export share with GCC to export share of Asia and from intra export share of GCC to export share of ASEAN with GCC were strictly observed. Again, the import share of Asia has long run causalities with the import shares of ASEAN and SAARC with GCC. The intra import share of GCC has long run causalities with the import shares of ASEAN and SAARC with GCC and the import concentration index of GCC has long run causalities with the import shares of ASEAN and SAARC with GCC respectively. The intra import share of GCC has short run causalities with import share of Asia, import concentration index of GCC and import share of ASEAN with GCC respectively. The import concentration index has short run causality with the import share of Asia. The import share of SAARC with GCC has short run causality with import share of ASEAN with GCC. The cointegration and vector error correction among Asian GDP, sum of intra export and import shares of GCC, sum of export and import shares of ASEAN with GCC, and sum of export and import shares of SAARC with GCC during 1995-2019 indicated that the GDP of Asia has long run causalities with the sum of intra export and import shares of GCC, the sum of export and import shares of ASEAN with GCC and the sum of export and import shares of SAARC with GCC and even they have short run causalities also. All these observations can justify that GCC has great impact on Asian economic integration process associated with SAARC and ASEAN.

Full textAbstract:
The development of aviation market in Southeast Asia after the Covid-19 pandemic is promising. More aircraft are delivered to the Asia-Pacific region, including the Association of South East Asian Nations (ASEAN) Member States. The introduction of ASEAN Open Skies (also known as ASEAN Single Aviation Market) a decade earlier together with ASEAN Economic Community Blueprint 2025 goals for an integrated and cohesive regional economy highlight the importance of a seamless air connectivity. Liberalisation of the airline industry in ASEAN Member States is crucial to restart the airline industry pre-pandemic and to grasp the so-called Asian century momentum. However, ASEAN Member States are reluctant towards liberalisation efforts, maintaining protectionism on both freedoms of the air (traffic rights) as well as foreign direct investment (ownership and control). Existing legal framework at regional level, namely ASEAN Framework Agreement on Services (AFAS) and ASEAN Trade in Services Agreement (ATISA), only received lukewarm attention from ASEAN Member States. This article discusses the urgency to recall the commitment of a gradual liberalisation based on AFAS and ATISA among the ASEAN Member States, the implementation of which will lead to the establishment of a regional community carrier which benefits ASEAN citizens.

Full textAbstract:
Since the Asian financial crisis of 1998, regional scholars and diplomats have maintained that the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) represents an evolving economic and security community. In addition, many contend that what is known as the ASEAN process not only has transformed Southeast Asia's international relations, but has started to build a shared East Asian regional identity. ASEAN's deeper integration into a security, economic, and political community, as well as its extension into the ASEAN Plus Three processes that were begun after the 1997 financial crisis, offers a test case of the dominant assumptions in both ASEAN scholarship and liberal and idealist accounts of international relations theory. Three case studies of ASEAN operating as an economic and security community demonstrate, however, that the norms and practices that ASEAN promotes, rather than creating an integrated community, can only sustain a pattern of limited intergovernmental and bureaucratically rigid interaction.

Full textAbstract:
The term of illicit firearms trafficking used by the United Nations is a movement of illegal trade in firearms controlled by organised criminal groups. Such movement specifically in ASEAN region is against national and regional laws. Hence, the growth in illegal firearms trade increases concern to the Southeast Asian countries. The article aims to examine effort to eradicate illegal firearms trafficking in ASEAN countries. Statute method combined with case approach in Southeast Asian Countries is employed in this research. The findings of the research indicate that the ASEAN countries have utilized diplomatic means namely the ASEAN Regional Forum (ARF) and the establishment of ASEAN Police (ASEANAPOL). These forums propose by ASEAN Political-Security Community (APSC) in a way to coordinate among the chief of national police of ASEAN countries including, inter alia, law enforcement policies, criminal courts and transnational crimes to combat crimes committed in the ASEAN region. In fact, the effectiveness of the APSC is still in question because the illicit firearms trafficking cannot be demolished.

The Organization of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) has unique characteristics, apart from the legal systems in Southeast Asian countries that are different from one another, but also have different historical aspects. If ASEAN is compared to the European Union, which has the same legal vision, characteristics of society, and even a uniform financial system, ASEAN does not yet have this uniformity. This study aims to identify the legal personality for ASEAN as a subject of international law. This study looks at various theories and concepts regarding international organizations as subjects of international law. This study confirms that the basis for ASEAN legal personality as a subject of international law can be seen in the ASEAN Charter, however, this form of legal personality is still limited.

ASEAN stands on August 8, 1967, under the agreement of five foreign ministers of Southeast Asian Countries namely Adam Malik (Indonesia), Tun Abdul Razak (Malaysia), Thanat Khoman (Thailand), Rajaratnam (Singapore), and Narcisco Ramos (Philippines). The ASEAN Charter is the legal and institutional framework that binds all ASEAN member countries and makes ASEAN an organization of legal status. ASEAN has immunities and privileges in the territory of the Member States as necessary to achieve its objectives. ASEAN with the ASEAN Charter being a full international organization, there are clear rules on ASEAN. Among them are the privileges and immunities for Permanent Representatives and diplomatic diplomatic agents in the ASEAN Secretariat.

Full textAbstract:
This paper focuses on the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN)—a major final assembler in production—where studies and evidence on the role of the region in global value chains are limited. We seek to provide new evidence regarding the extent and patterns of international fragmentation in ASEAN. To do so, we derive the foreign value-added shares of final products for all global value chains of ASEAN. Using the Asian Development Bank’s multiregional input–output tables for 2000–2017, we document a series of stylized facts. The results show declining foreign value-added shares in ASEAN. Regional economic integration within ASEAN has increased, while value-added contributions vary widely across its members. We find evidence of increasing value-added contributions from emerging economies to ASEAN, whereas the contributions from advanced economies have declined.

As a response, Philippine Normal University spearheaded the formation of the Association of Southeast Asian Teacher Education Network to promote collaboration with ASEAN countries and enhance teacher education programs. The formation of AsTEN creates the impetus to explore possibilities for the internationalization of teacher education programs among the ASEAN countries. Thus, the Institute of Teaching and Learning of PNU initiated the Project Teacher Exchange for ASEAN Teachers (TEACH). This paper reports the assessment of the piloting of the Project TEACH as experienced by the Thai participants. Moreover, this research aims to develop a model that can be utilized by other ASEAN communities as they prepare for their own international teacher education programs.

ASEAN membentuk integrasi ekonomi, seperti ASEAN Free Trade Area (AFTA), AFTA+1, dan ASEAN Economic Community (AEC), untuk meningkatkan perdagangan intra dan investasi antarnegara ASEAN. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk meneliti dampak integrasi ekonomi ASEAN terhadap ASEAN FDI (AFDI) dan perdagangan intra ASEAN (AIT). Penelitian ini menggunakan data sepuluh negara ASEAN dan enam negara mitra selama periode 2001-2017 dan di estimasi dengan menggunakan Generalized Least-Square (GLS). Hasil estimasi menunjukkan CEPT-AFTA ASEAN6 tidak dapat meningkatkan AIT dan AFDI. Dampak positif CEPT-AFTA pada AFDI dan AIT hanya terjadi pada tahun 2015, meskipun dampak pada AIT tidak signifikan. Penelitian ini mengindikasikan bahwa AFTA+ dapat meningkatkan AIT dan AFDI antara negara-negara ASEAN+6. AEC memiliki dampak positif pada AFDI dan dampak negatif pada AIT. Penelitian ini juga menyimpulkan bahwa jika dengan kerangka ASEAN+ menyebabkan investment creation di kawasan ASEAN+6. Untuk memperkuat perdagangan dan investasi, maka pemerintah perlu memperkuat kerja sama melalui Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP).

Abstract
ASEAN created several economic integrations, such as the ASEAN Free Trade Area (AFTA), AFTA+1, and ASEAN Economic Community (AEC), to increase intra-trade and investment between ASEAN countries. This study aimed to examine the impact of ASEAN economic integration to ASEAN FDI (AFDI) and ASEAN Intra-Trade (AIT). The data consists of ten ASEAN countries and six partner countries from 2001 to 2017. It was estimated using the Generalized Least-Square (GLS). Estimation results showed that CEPT-AFTA ASEAN6 could not increase AIT and AFDI. The positive impact of CEPT-AFTA on AFDI and AIT occurred in 2015, with insignificance on AIT. The study also indicated that AFTA+ could increase AIT and AFDI between ASEAN+6 countries. Contrarily, AEC provided a positive impact on AFDI and an insignificant negative impact on AIT. The study concluded that the ASEAN+ framework causes investment creation in ASEAN and partner countries. The government needs to strengthen cooperation through Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) to escalate FDI and trade.

Abstract Given the slow pace of global and regional trade liberalization initiatives, Singapore has forged free trade agreements for economic and strategic reasons. Other ASEAN countries and ASEAN itself have also become interested in establishing FTAs with countries outside the grouping. In the future, ASEAN could form an ASEAN or an East Asian Economic Community.

In December 2015, the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) celebrated the official establishment of the ASEAN Community. Having emerged in 1967 as a regional grouping of developing countries with minimal shared interests—beyond the common concern of economic growth and national resilience, ASEAN now has established regional structures which have been vital in enhancing development and dialogue on a broad range of issues across the Southeast Asian region. Over the years, the institutional development at the regional level has been accompanied by various efforts to promote regional unity and identity. The more recent years have also displayed that the international community has been supporting these efforts for ASEAN unity and identity by showing greater recognition of ASEAN as an international actor in its own right, for example, through the establishment of numerous country delegations to ASEAN.

The Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) has instrumentalized gender equality to present itself as a responsible regional organization accommodating universal norms. However, there is an ontological gap between ASEAN and UN-led programs derived from the inconsistency between intrinsic and extrinsic motivation toward universal norms. This study argues that the inefficiency of ASEAN in pursuing gender equality is primarily attributed to the practice matter of ASEAN. Using primary and secondary data collected through various means, this paper finds that ASEAN efforts on gender equality were mainly raised in declarations and conferences. ASEAN is a particularly important agent in promoting gender-responsive human security, given the nature of challenges and the political and economic limitations of ASEAN member states. It also tends to be a good global citizen as a norm entrepreneur by promoting universal norms and involving global programs led by the UN, such as Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Keywords: ASEAN norms, ASEAN community, gender equality, human security, and norm entrepreneur Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) telah melembagakan kesetaraan gender untuk menampilkan dirinya sebagai organisasi regional yang bertanggung jawab mengakomodasi norma-norma universal. Namun, terdapat kesenjangan ontologis antara program-program yang dipimpin ASEAN dan PBB, yang berasal dari inkonsistensi antara motivasi intrinsik dan ekstrinsik terhadap norma-norma universal. Studi ini berpendapat bahwa inefisiensi ASEAN dalam mengejar kesetaraan gender sebagian besar dikaitkan dengan masalah praktik ASEAN. Dengan menggunakan data primer dan sekunder yang dikumpulkan melalui berbagai sumber, makalah ini menemukan bahwa upaya ASEAN dalam kesetaraan gender secara umum diangkat dalam deklarasi dan konferensi. ASEAN adalah agen yang sangat penting dalam mempromosikan keamanan manusia yang responsif gender, mengingat sifat tantangan dan keterbatasan politik dan ekonomi negara-negara anggota ASEAN. Hal ini juga cenderung menjadi warga dunia yang baik sebagai norm entrepreneur dengan mempromosikan norma-norma universal dan melibatkan program global yang dipimpin oleh PBB seperti Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) dan Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Strengthening ASEAN, with more countries joining the Association and its partners, has influenced the economic development of the region. In this context, tourism has proved to be one of the key sectors of the economy of Vietnam and other ASEAN members, contributing to the competitiveness of Southeast Asia vis-à-vis China.

This paper constructs an ASEAN scorecard for measuring the performance of trade facilitation strategic plans by ASEAN member states. Next, a structural gravity model is used in the paper in order to estimate the trade facilitation performance influence on ASEAN trade flows. The fact that the indicator of easing Nontariff Barriers (NTBs) and institutional coordination, on the one hand, and the ASEAN member states' engagement indicator, on the other, had the highest enforcement scores in ASEAN in the period 2017-2019. Those two indicators also exert the biggest influence on ASEAN trade flows, especially ASEAN extra-regional trade.

Purpose The association between export destinations and economic growth remains under-researched, despite the large literature on export-led growth. This paper aims to fill in the gap of the literature. It analyzes the effects of exporting on economic growth in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) and further explores which export destinations are most desirable in terms of promoting economic growth. Design/methodology/approach With panel data for ASEAN countries from 1986 to 2013, this paper performs both fixed effects estimation and Arellano–Bond GMM estimation. Findings Robust findings reveal that to promote economic growth, it is most beneficial for ASEAN countries to export to the Western industrial countries, followed by exporting to Japan, Korea and China. Exporting to the rest of the world does not appear to generate significantly positive effect on economic growth. Originality/value The findings have important policy implications for ASEANs to further develop their trade policy.

This research aims to examine the sophistication of export portfolios of selected Association of South East Asian Nation (ASEAN) and developed Asian economies. It aims to provide evidence of where exactly ASEAN economies are in the context of exports sophistication and structural transformation. Results from a product space analysis indicate that although limited in product scope, there are prospects for ASEAN economies to converge to the level of export sophistication of developed Asian countries. The analysis finds a need for governments to take a more active role in promoting more appropriate industrial and economic policies.

Full textAbstract:
How has the Taiwan–Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) trade evolved without having official diplomatic relations? Using several international commodity classification systems and trade pattern indices, we argue that despite political constraints, Taiwan–ASEAN trade has rapidly expanded with a significant concentration on manufacturing and intermediate goods, embodied with high-technological content. Also, by employing the Organisation of Economic Co-operation and Development’s (OECD) database on trade in value added (TiVA), we assess that Taiwan and ASEAN have become important partners in terms of trade in value addition. Nevertheless, Taiwan is seemingly lagging behind Northeast Asian economies in strengthening linkages with ASEAN over regional production networks and TiVA. This possibly results from the absence of a bilateral preferential trade agreement between Taiwan and ASEAN so far. Given the low possibility of reaching such an agreement in the near future, it is suggested that Taiwan and ASEAN should employ dynamic approaches to reap greater bilateral trade expansion and other economic benefits.

The Covid-19 outbreak, which is still being felt by all levels of society in the world, is increasingly leaving a major impact so that countries are overwhelmed with prevention and anticipation. Malaysia as one of the ASEAN member countries is no exception feeling the impact of the rapid spread of the Covid-19 virus. The purpose of this study is to explain how Malaysia and ASEAN collaborate in dealing with the COVID-19 pandemic in the Southeast Asia region in 2020. Furthermore, this paper will use a research method with a qualitative approach that is used to explore and understand the meaning of a number of individuals and groups who ascribed to social and humanitarian problems. Based on this qualitative approach, the author will study further about Malaysia's membership and relations with ASEAN, then proceed to a discussion on the development of the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic in Malaysia. The next discussion examines how ASEAN's response to the COVID-19 pandemic in the Southeast Asian region, which is continued by discussing how Malaysia's participation in handling COVID-19 in ASEAN. And ended with a discussion about the projected opportunities and challenges of Malaysia and ASEAN related to efforts to deal with COVID-19 in the Southeast Asian region. The discussion will refer to four mechanisms for handling COVID-19 based on the ASEAN-ASCC pillars, namely: The ASEAN Health Ministers and ASEAN Plus Three Health Ministers and the ASEAN Plus Three Senior Officials Meeting for Health Development (APT SOMHD), The ASEAN Emergency Operations Center. Network for public health emergencies (ASEAN EOC Network), and the ASEAN Bio Diaspora Virtual Center for big data analytics and visualization (ABVC).

Specifically, I empirically focus on what ASEAN’s role in contemporary Asian regional architecture is and what challenge and opportunities lie ahead. In contrast to other studies, I consider whether the ASEAN as a driving force of the regional architecture in Asia should only be considered in an over-arching macro-analytical sense in order to contain China. Such an approach to the concept may not work in explaining what change in Asia and its relations with the ASEAN centrality. Additionally, I consider why there is a need for regional architecture in Asia. Using a single-case analysis of ASEAN role in regional architecture from 2009-2012, I found evidence of an association between bargaining and mutual satisfaction while embracing different motives and power for doing regional architecture. Moreover, I demonstrate that it makes sense to talk about regional identity whenever ASEAN is struggling to project a common voice.

Full textAbstract:
Since Vietnam assumed ASEAN Rotational Chairmanship in 2020, for the first time, the Mekong issue has been put on the associations agenda. This can be considered a crucial milestone, not only for the Mekong riparian countries but for ASEAN as a ten-member regional community as well. The necessity of re-positioning the Mekong issue on ASEANs agenda is not entirely new in both academic and policy-making communities, but perhaps has never been as pressing as it is today due to objective and subjective reasons. Vietnams rotational chairmanship of ASEAN has increasingly spurred advocates of discussing the Mekong issue in ASEAN and ASEAN-led mechanisms. Espousing to a comprehensive approach rather than adopting a single International Relations (IR) theory, this paper attempts to shed light on ASEANs strategic motivations to raise the Mekong issue on its agenda and concurrently, disentangle the puzzle why Vietnams ASEAN Chairmanship Year is the turning point for the Mekongs fate from the perspectives that Hanoi is a key driver. Vietnam is particularly vulnerable to negative impacts of natural and artificial activities on the Mekong River, the countrys furthest downstream. Both the association and Vietnam have legitimate interests to push for the inclusion of the Mekong issue on ASEANs agenda. The article implies that Vietnams middle-power proactivism is one of the most motivational catalysts for ASEANs choice.

Full textAbstract:
The Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) is a clear example of an “organized anarchy” within agenda setting literature; meaning that ASEAN has problematic preferences due to its multiple conflicting goals, relies on unclear methods to accomplish those goals, and experiences fluid participation of its members and leaders. This leaves the organization a case study in the path dependency of norms, as ASEAN typically defaults to its founding principles of non-interference, economic inter-connectivity, and regional “centrality” during crises. The research question was on the examples of variation when ASEAN broadens the scope of its mission. The research aimed to answer by framing ASEAN as a subsystem of Southeast Asian regionalism and conducting a comparative historical analysis of three case study periods: the creation of the ASEAN Regional Forum (ARF), the failure to reach a joint communique in 2012 over tensions in the South China Sea, and the ongoing crisis of human rights and governance in Myanmar. The case studies demonstrate that the most effective broadening forces for ASEAN are exogenous. The conclusion argues that this is a problematic status quo for a regional organization that seeks to promote its centrality to counter interference from outside powers.

Amid the unstable world environment the economic “weight” transfer to Asia highlights dynamically growing role of the Asian Pacific region (APR) where a specific place is put on the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN). The present research is devoted to processes of ASEAN member-countries regional integration development. In the current work dynamics of socio-economic indicators, volumes of the foreign direct investments (FDI) and intraregional trade are characterized. The conducted research concludes that regional development processes in ASEAN are flourishing: the ASEAN competitiveness is to a high standard, the Association is attractive from a position of foreign investment. The analysis of socio-economic indicators dynamics revealed asymmetry of ASEAN member-countries. The gap in macroeconomic indicators in comparison with the other partners of Association is observed in CMLV countries (Cambodia, Myanmar, Laos, Vietnam). However, such a disproportion, on the one hand, might prevent from formation of effective production networks, and, on the other, guarantee the lagging countries relative economic stability.

Climate change phenomenon has become one of the major issues discussed in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN). ASEAN as one of the most influential regions in the world tries to combat climate change by developing renewable energy and creating a better living in the region. To pursue its ambition, ASEAN cooperates with United States of America (U.S) as one of its dialogue partners following the implementation of the ASEAN Plan of Action for Energy Cooperation (APAEC) 2016-2025. This paper is using qualitative research method through secondary data analysis to explain how ASEAN-U.S cooperation on renewable energy helps ASEAN to combat climate change. Throughout the research, ASEAN-U.S cooperation on renewable energy is potentially beneficial and helpful for ASEAN to pursue its ambition in terms of investment provision and technology and information exchange.

Full textAbstract:
The strategic values of the South China Sea trigger consequences, which are the emergence of multiple claims to the sovereignty of the area to exploit the strategic values for the national interest. The claims thus construct complex issues in the South China Sea, which involve China’s assertiveness and the internationalization of the South China Sea circumstance, which makes the situation in the region unconducive and hinders the resolution process. The Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) must also deal with different views among several member countries regarding the South China Sea dispute. With a security community formed through the ASEAN Political Security Community, ASEAN must be a platform for its member countries to develop and implement strategies to realize common interests, namely order and security. This research explains the potential strategies ASEAN can carry out in solving problems in the South China Sea. This research used qualitative methods, descriptive analysis, and regional security complex theory. This research finds that the strategy that ASEAN can potentially use is to accelerate the formulation of the Code of Conduct (CoC), restore ASEAN identity, and form the ASEAN Navy and the ASEAN Maritime Identification Zone (ASEAN MIZ); thus, ASEAN can comprehensively fulfill a conducive, peaceful, and secure water area. Keywords: ASEAN, stability and security, sovereignty, South China Sea, maritime security, common interests, strategy Nilai strategis yang dimiliki Laut Tiongkok Selatan membawa konsekuensi berupa munculnya klaim tumpang tindih terhadap kedaulatan area tersebut untuk dapat memanfaatkan nilai strategis yang ada demi kepentingan nasional tertentu. Hal ini menimbulkan permasalahan kompleks di Laut Tiongkok Selatan, yang bukan hanya melibatkan asertivitas Tiongkok, tetapi juga Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) yang menghadapi perbedaan pandangan di antara beberapa negara anggota yang membuat situasi di wilayah tersebut semakin tidak kondusif dan menghambat proses penyelesaiannya. Dengan komunitas keamanan yang terbentuk melalui ASEAN Political Security Community, ASEAN harus menjadi wadah bagi negara-negara anggotanya untuk menyusun dan melaksanakan strategi yang dapat mewujudkan kepentingan bersama, yaitu keteraturan dan keamanan. Penelitian ini menjelaskan strategi yang dapat dilakukan ASEAN dalam menghadapi dan menyelesaikan permasalahan di Laut Tiongkok Selatan. Penelitian ini dilaksanakan menggunakan metode kualitatif dan analisis deskriptif serta teori Regional Security Complex. Penelitian ini menemukan bahwa strategi yang dapat dimanfaatkan oleh ASEAN adalah mempercepat perumusan Code of Conduct (CoC), mengembalikan identitas ASEAN, dan membentuk ASEAN Navy serta ASEAN Maritime Identification Zone (ASEAN MIZ), sehingga ASEAN secara menyeluruh dapat mewujudkan wilayah perairan yang kondusif, damai, dan aman.

Over recent decades ASEAN has advanced a policy of regional integration, starting with the ASEAN Free Trade Area, following on with the ASEAN+1 free trade agreements with its six main trading partners, and now with ASEAN+6. To further advance ASEAN's regional integration in the East Asian context, it should continue to focus on further liberalization of trade in goods, investment, and services that can facilitate more trade and investment. East Asian integration is designed not to be just an “extensive regional trade agreement,” but is more a “responsive vehicle” that consists of trade and investment commitments combined with facilitation. To keep regional integration viable, it should adopt an open regionalism.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractThe article analyses investment rulemaking in new Asian regionalism in the context of evolving national legislation and regional trade strategies. It argues that the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) and the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) represent Asia's pragmatic incrementalism in reforming the investment regime. The process reinforces the relationship between international economic law and domestic investment laws. In tandem with transforming international investment agreements, ASEAN expedited investment and services trade, and established the modern investor–state dispute settlement (ISDS) mechanism. The RCEP further buttresses the ASEAN centrality in regional frameworks by consolidating ASEAN Plus One agreements. Yet, the RCEP's omission of ISDS reflects a distinct approach that may confront challenges to state-to-state proceedings and treaty shopping under overlapping pacts. Finally, the research sheds light on Asian countries' recent investment agreements and domestic dispute settlement that complement the liberal international order. These developments provide valuable models for developing countries and contribute to the understanding of global investment reforms from an Asian perspective.

Currently, drug abuse by children continues to be a public concern and never stops being discussed and publicized. Certain circles, such as ASEAN (the Association of Southeast Asian Nations), have always been committed to fighting the threat of drugs in the Southeast Asian region. The main vision of the region is to achieve a "drug-free ASEAN". Referring to the vision and slogan, ASEAN formed an ASEAN Work Plan (ASEAN Work Plan) with one sector, namely rehabilitation. The purpose of this research and study in general is to find out and discuss the effectiveness of the rehabilitation program as a sector of the ASEAN work plan in dealing with children who abuse narcotics. The method used for writing this journal is a normative legal method using a quantitative and qualitative approach. In writing this journal, the authors also follow a research typology that is descriptive in nature. Based on the research results, it can be concluded that the rehabilitation program, as a sector of the ASEAN work plan, can be said to be somewhat successful in dealing with children who abuse narcotics. However, the data above is not enough to prove that the rehabilitation program is a sector of the ASEAN work plan. This is due to the absence of proportions and data showing the results of the rehabilitation program as a sector of the ASEAN work plan. Referring to the Indonesian Drug Reports, BNN stated in the Mid-Term Review of the ASEAN Work Plan that the proportion of success in the rehabilitation sector was 80%..

Transactions among ASEAN member countries are increasingly open with the release of the ASEAN Economic Community (MEA). Entrepreneurs in ASEAN countries are expected to make more transactions with their business partners in the Southeast Asian region. Increasing business relations in the ASEAN region will in part affect the increase in disputes among ASEAN entrepreneurs. This study aims to provide an idea regarding the establishment of the ASEAN Regional Arbitration Agency as an effort to overcome the issue of the execution of arbitration decisions by utilizing regional unification. This research is descriptive analytical using a normative juridical approach. The results of the study show that ASEAN should be a place for resolving international commercial disputes, especially on business transactions carried out in the ASEAN member countries, if ASEAN has a regional arbitration forum, the procedure for resolving business disputes in this region will be simpler, more effective and easier. Legal system barriers can also be overcome if there are procedures that are jointly recognized.

Full textAbstract:
As a regional organization, ASEAN upholds its core principles of non-interference, consultation and consensus. Meanwhile, Responsibility to Protect (R2P) encourages the need for the international community’s intervention to a country that falls to its citizens. Hence, this creates tension between ASEAN principles and R2P. The tension is reflected when the limited capacity of a member state’s government might invite humanitarian intervention from the international community. This research aims to discuss how Southeast Asian regionalism adapts to this situation and is undergoing dynamic reformulation to reconcile ASEAN Way and humanitarian principles. In contemporary Southeast Asian Studies, the extent of R2P inception in ASEAN regional cooperation is understudied. These methods utilize a reductionist approach in I.R. studies by explaining ASEAN through the analysis of individual actors based on a constructivism school of thought. The data taken from the interviews are utilized to confirm ASEAN and member states’ positions. This study argues that the traditional constructivist tipping point measurement for an international norm needs to be revisited. The tipping points for R2P in international forums may not necessarily be well-reflected at the regional level.

Full textAbstract:
The adoption of the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) has brought the Asia Pacific region into a new paradigm of ASEAN regionalism. The global economic competition between China and the western world significantly impacts Southeast Asian countries regionally due to geographical factors and regional integration towards the ASEAN community. The changing regional order then happened after RCEP increased China's interest in the Southeast Asian geopolitical landscape and ASEAN – China's role in post-pandemic global governance. The authors discussed how China's soft power influences ASEAN's regionalism through the RCEP and vice versa. Further, it investigates how the dynamics impact the ASEAN Outlook on Indo-Pacific. Using the concept of soft power and institutional neoliberalism, this article has concluded that China is now ascending its inter-regional cooperation to capture a more significant interdependence to challenge the Western's rule of global order. The rivalry between the U.S. and China, ASEAN external partners, the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), and the political cases concerning said stipulations of the AOIP hence identify the impacts and how ASEAN can navigate the region amid global uncertainties.

The ASEAN Trade in Goods Agreement (ATIGA) marked a new era of economic cooperation of Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN). With the ambition of creating an integrated regional market like the European Union, leaders of ASEAN nations signed the ATIGA in 2009. The ATIGA consolidates previous legal documents concerning different trade issues into a concise and coherent document, which has a profound implication for all market participants involved in trade with ASEAN nations. This article highlights several key legal instruments of ASEAN that market participants should pay attention to. From a comparative perspective, this article identifies the institutional weaknesses of ASEAN and proposes that ASEAN could improve its trade policy and build a more uniform and functional institution by borrowing the EU's experience in building the customs union.

What determines how ASEAN is perceived by the citizens of its member states? Most studies on ASEAN take a state-centric and elite-oriented viewpoint. We improve on this by bringing the people of ASEAN into the center of the analysis. Considering lessons from the European Union’s internal legitimacy crisis, we develop hypotheses on how skill-based economic interests, sociocultural beliefs, and assessments of national context shape people’s attitude to ASEAN. Our hypotheses are tested using the latest data from the Asian Barometer Survey, covering eight of the 10 ASEAN countries. We find that citizen confidence in domestic governance and a positive assessment of major extra-regional powers are associated with a closer identification with ASEAN. Our analysis also identifies age and gender cleavages. ASEAN affinity is higher among older rather than younger and male rather than female respondents. Our findings have important policy implications for the proponents of ASEAN.

This paper gives an overview of the progress of regionalism in East Asia and examines the background of the recent embrace of trade agreements by China, Japan, and South Korea. It discusses the progress toward free trade agreements (FTAs) within East Asia and offers reasons for their slow development. The impacts of eight hypothetical East Asian FTAs are estimated using a computable generalized equilibrium model. The model predicts that countries will benefit from both bilateral FTAs and regional FTAs (such as a Northeast Asian FTA and an East Asian FTA); however, greater economic benefits would be gained under regional FTAs than under bilateral FTAs. Although the simulation used in the study estimates that a Northeast Asian FTA and an East Asian FTA would bring a similar level of economic benefits, results indicate that greater benefits would accrue under an East Asian FTA. Discussions of a Japan–ASEAN FTA are under way, after talks of an FTA between ASEAN and China blossomed in late 2000. China and Japan are competitively promoting bilateral FTAs with ASEAN. As discussions of an FTA with ASEAN heat up in China and Japan, South Korea has also begun reviewing the economic feasibility of an FTA with ASEAN. If China, Japan, and South Korea competitively pursue bilateral FTAs with ASEAN, this may result in several important problems, including spaghetti bowl effects, a hub-and-spoke dilemma, or struggles for regional leadership. This paper tries to show that an East Asian FTA covering the whole region is economically desirable and stresses that East Asian countries should introduce a regionwide FTA, rather than multiple bilateral or subregional FTAs. An East Asian FTA can be realized only in the long term because of economic, political, and social obstacles. East Asia, which already lags behind other regions in terms of regionalism, should not passively wait for the establishment of an East Asian FTA, which is likely to take some time to be established.

The study aims to analyze how ASEAN acts to keep the region from conflicts over the South China Sea. The South China Sea conflict is a conflict that has a major impact on the ASEAN region; it is influenced by the territorial waters owned by several countries in ASEAN according to the United Nations Convention for the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) in 1982. China’s unilateral claim in 2012 was the beginning of ASEAN’s concerns over the security and stability around the South China Sea and ASEAN waters. This article focuses on ASEAN’s response in response to China’s moves after unilateral claims and the establishment of military fleets around the Spratly and Paracel islands. The ASEAN Regional Forum (ARF) on 2018 is an important response for ASEAN in the face of maritime security threats. Establishment of policy strengthening security cooperation will have a significant impact in the development of stability in the South China Sea region, where the situation in the region worsen with the increasing number of actors involved in the conflict. The findings obtained from this paper aim to explain the analysis of ASEAN schemes to safeguard the territorial waters around the South China Sea.

The specificity of dialogue between ASEAN and SCO is revealed, possibilities and limitations of fostering business ties within the frameworks of ASEAN Business Advisory Council (ASEAN BAC) and SCO Business Council (SCO BC) are analysed, the most likely scenario under which this cooperation can be energized is specified. According to the authors' position, this intensification of contacts is possible only in case ASEAN BAC and SCO BC are synergized with China's mega-strategy the Belt and Road Initiative. Under other scenarios, including the “business-as-usual” format of cooperation between ASEAN and SCO business communities in the framework of ASEAN BAC and SCO BC, progress is unlikely.

Scholars have devoted little attention to foreign policy motive of Indonesia’s free trade agreement (FTA) policy. This article finds that, under competitive international pressure, Indonesia has instrumentalised some FTAs to serve its “Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN)-first” foreign policy, specifically to ensure the geopolitical and geoeconomic relevance of ASEAN. Three FTAs display this motive: the ASEAN Free Trade Area, later extended to the ASEAN Economic Community, the ASEAN–China FTA, and the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership. Domestically, the pro-ASEAN group has supported this motive against other influential domestic actors, especially the nationalist and the pro-liberalisation groups. However, diffused political authority has led to an inconsistent FTA policy across various trade policymaking phases. The “pro-ASEAN” FTA policy has been relatively stronger in both the negotiation and ratification, but substantially weaker in the implementation phases.

One prominent strategy of the university network of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) is to promote collaboration between the ASEAN universities. Although there are Memorandum of Understandings (MOUs) among Asian Universities, the number of collaborative actions are considered extremely low. More than 10 years, PNRU implement on collaboration policy with other ASEAN’s universities. The processes and obstructions of the collaboration between universities in ASEAN were studied by the researcher. This study showed present situation of PNRU and other ASEAN’s universities collaboration. Therefore, the collaboration model between universities in ASEAN was established. The findings revealed that PNRU pursued collaborative activities covering only student and personnel exchange programs. The collaboration obstacles were: 1) policies and goals, 2) implementation plans, 3) university bureaucracy, and 4) language proficiency. A model for university collaboration comprised collaboration processes and principles. A collaboration model for the ASEAN university network involves clear goals, financial and resource support, implementation planning, and raising awareness of participants for collaboration.

The study compares the socioeconomic development of the South Asian Association of Regional Cooperation (SAARC) to that of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN). SAARC was established on December 8, 1985, as a result of former President Ziaur Rahman's efforts to promote the welfare of the people and mutual trust. ASEAN was founded in August 1967 with the goal of accelerating the region's economic growth, social progress, and cultural development while also promoting regional peace and stability. The SAARC countries share problems such as poverty and unemployment. SAARC countries have a GDP per capita four times that of ASEAN. A qualitative analysis based on secondary data pertaining to SAARC and ASEAN reveals that SAARC has not been more successful than ASEAN. National and international conflicts are common within SAARC. SAARC has 22% of the world's population and 3% of the world's economy, and there are enormous opportunities for economic growth and human development.

Cases of human rights violations continue to occur in the Asian region, including the ASEAN region, even though ASEAN countries have agreed to adopt the ASEAN Human Rights Declaration. In fact, the practice of AHRD is still minimally considered by ASEAN and ASEAN members themselves. Indonesia as an ASEAN member is also still taking action against human rights such as the case in Papua, not only local residents who get human rights violations from the government, but also from some data it is found that Papuan human rights activists are also intimidated. In this case, it can be seen that the implementation of the AHRD has not been fully maximized in Indonesia in handling cases of human rights violations contained in the points in the AHRD.

Melalui pembahasan dan analisis didapatkan hasil bahwa sistem dan mekanisme HAM nasional negara-negara anggota ASEAN yang ditunjukkan melalui perlindungan HAM dalam konstitusinya maupun melalui pembentukan lembaga-lembaga yang berkaitan dengan HAM sesungguhnya cukup beragam, namun dapat menjadi modalitas yang memadai bagi sistem dan mekanisme HAM ASEAN sebagai organisasi regional.
