    Indonesia’s Maritime Doctrine and Security Concerns
    Iis Gindarsah,

    09 April 2015

    download pdf

    Executive Summary

    The implementation of President Joko Widodo’s Global Maritime Fulcrum doctrine requires the maintenance of national sovereignty, maritime safety and regional security. This report elaborates the impact of Indonesia’s maritime vision in foreign and defence policy. Additionally, it analyses the concept of “global maritime fulcrum” and examines strategic challenges facing the Widodo administration for the next five years. The report also discusses Indonesia’s probable defence outlook under the new maritime doctrine.  It notes that the Global Maritime Fulcrum doctrine represents a national vision and development agenda to rebuild the country’s maritime culture and expand its economy. Although the Widodo administration puts Indonesia’s national interests above all, Indonesia is unlikely to change its commitment to regional peace and stability as doing so would eventually harm the country’s national security. The report concludes by highlighting potential areas for defence and security cooperation between Indonesia and its strategic partners.
