Abstract

This paper aims to examine the extent to which the Indonesia-Papua New Guinea (PNG) border has played a role in preventing the spread of Covid-19. This case study demonstrates an example of how two countries cooperate with one another in times of the Covid-19 pandemic. The research method used to analyze the topic adopts a qualitative descriptive approach. This paper finds out that the Indonesia-PNG border has not only acted as a deterrent, but it has also ensured human security and facilitated repatriation in the midst of Covid-19. Even though PNG has perceived Indonesia as a threat due to the increasing number of Covid-19 cases in Papua province, the cooperation between the two countries remains strong. Moreover, protecting human security in the borders of Indonesia and PNG is vitally important in times of Covid-19. The two countries have ensured the closing of the border areas in January 2020 as well as the deployment of security forces along the borders. Both nations have also successfully implemented repatriation of their citizens from PNG to Indonesia and vice versa through PLBN (Cross-Border Post) in Skouw, Jayapura. The case study demonstrates how the high number of recorded cases of Covid-19 in Indonesia has not resulted in transfers of the virus over the PNG border. Keywords: Covid-19, Indonesia, PNG, human security, PLBN, Regional  Border

Abstract

Climate change is a complex and globalizing environmental issue that occurs almost all over the world, including the South Pacific islands. This article aims to examine the impacts of climate change on the Pacific community, marked by a sea-level rise that threatens the existence of the country and its population – particularly the Republic of Kiribati. This study also investigates the role of the Kiribati government in planning future strategies in response to the threat of rising sea levels. By using descriptive qualitative analysis, it found that Kiribati became one of the countries in the South Pacific whose existence and inhabitants would be threatened by the sea level rise in the near future. The impacts felt by the people of Kiribati thus far included storm surges, typhoons, floods, sea-level rise, seawater intrusion, and drought. However, the sea-level rise became the most experienced phenomenon by households in Kiribati. The Kiribati government has developed three strategies: adaptation, mitigation, and relocation. Adaptation and mitigation are identified as priorities while considering relocation as the last option.KEYWORDSClimate Change; Kiribati; Pacific; Sea Level Rise

Abstract

As part of their energy cooperation, Indonesia and Denmark have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) in 2015, which was later upgraded to the Indonesian Denmark Energy Partnership Programme (INDODEPP) signed in 2022. This study aims to analyze the potential benefit arising from this energy cooperation. Data for this study was collected from secondary sources using a qualitative research method. This study found that this cooperation provides mutual benefits for both countries, with Indonesia gains the most. Indonesia has abundant renewable energy resources, while Denmark is a leading country, with a long tradition in the development and utilization of new renewable energy. These conditions offer Indonesia the opportunity to benefit from a partnership with Denmark in the development of renewable energy and help Indonesia with future energy provision. In addition, this cooperation has improved Indonesia’s energy supply prospects, as indicated by the development of a wind power plant and a hybrid power plant, which aligns with Indonesia’s target of achieving 23% renewable energy by 2025.KEYWORDSAbundant Resources; Cooperation; Partnership; Renewable Energy

Abstract

This study aims to explain the reasons why the Indonesian government decided to cooperate with World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) and the impact of the termination of the Indonesian government's cooperation with WWF on Nature Conservation in Indonesia. Data was collected through a literature study (library research) which aims to collect secondary data from books, journals, reports, official government websites, and other relevant internet sites to support this research. The data is then analyzed in three stages: data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The findings show that the reasons why the Indonesian government, represented by the Ministry of Environment, decided to partner or end the collaboration with the WWF foundation, namely, first, a change in landscape or the scope of WWF's performance which is increasingly being expanded. Second, WWF's activities, especially in the field of climate change, environmental and forestry law enforcement and waste management in the field, do not have a legal basis for legal cooperation. Third, violations of the principle of cooperation and violations of field work and unilateral claims that do not match the facts that occur in the field. Fourth, violations of the substance of the cooperation agreement, including through a series of social media campaigns and publication of reports that are not in accordance with the facts. Meanwhile, the impact of the termination of this collaboration resulted in aspects of the natural environment that were increasingly not maintained and many other projects that were concerned with nature and ecosystem conservation became worse. The limitation of this research is that the researchers did not have time to conduct interviews with WWF to examine in more detail the impact of the termination of cooperation on nature conservation in Indonesia. Subsequent research needs to use the interview method for more comprehensive results.
