| Summary/Abstract |
Indonesia has evolved significantly since 1998, through the pace has been at times painfully slow. In addition to that, many have argued that Indonesia`s regional and global profile is rising. Since 2003, Indonesia has been the driving force behind political and security community building in the association of Southeast Asian Nation (ASEAN), even as it strengthens bilateral partnerships with major such as the United States, China and India. Indonesia has also been vigorously engaged in many global issues such as climate change and been a fervent of global institution including the G-20. Putting Indonesia in the discussion of regional power is important because it is one of Southeast Asia`s key leaders and is also an active participant in Asia`s emerging regional security architecture. This paper analyzes Indonesia`s emergence as a regional power by looking at both its recent domestic developments and its rising global and regional profile, and argues that albeit its international ambition and recent success in rising its diplomatic game, Indonesia still rest on shaky domestic foundations.

| Summary/Abstract |
On February 20, 2017, Indonesian President Joko Widodo signed Presidential Regulation no. 16 on the “Indonesian Ocean Policy”. The national policy was issued as the guideline for, and to coordinate, all maritime-related policies and programmes across different ministries and agencies. Prior to this, Indonesia was long criticised for lacking an integrated ocean policy and ocean-based strategies. Aside from domestic urgency, the narrative through which the new policy is introduced portrays a strategic document that projects Indonesia's interest and strategy in the region, and globally. Emphasising these two dimensions of the policy (domestic and external), this paper argues that on the domestic front the policy document has a clear elaboration of the important aspects of ocean management, and functions appropriately in its aim to coordinate maritime-related policies. On the other hand, the external dimension of the ocean policy is still unclear, particularly in terms of how this document will interact with and affect regional geopolitics.
