Many believed China was theorigin of the coronavirus that sparked the pandemic. While dealing with the virus domestically, China has also pleaded to help many countries overcome the impact of the pandemic. Within this context, China runs the so-called vaccine diplomacy: providing Chinese-made vaccines to countries in need, including Indonesia. This article argues that although vaccine diplomacy can be seen as evidence of China’s soft power, it is also carried out to serve China’s national interests. Vaccine diplomacy to Indonesia is to demonstrate China’s goodwill and friendship. It is also to help Indonesia recover its economy with the support of Chinese investment and to promote its influence in the region within the context of great power rivalry with the United States. Sejak awal tahun 2020, pandemi COVID-19 telah menghancurkan banyak aspek kehidupan manusia di seluruh dunia. Ba...

This is arguably the greatest ideal long imagined by some groups of 'flea-conservatives' that dominating Bush's foreign policy. These groups believe that the United States, supported by its military and economic supremacy, is the uncontested 'leader' of today's world. Their belief has of course been contested by those scholars who argue that building an 'empire' would only weaken – some even say 'destroy' – U.S. dominant position in international relatiohs. This essay tries to describe in brief both groups' arguments, while also stressing that the first choice of imperial hegemony is the worst not only for the U.S., but also for the international community.

Penulis berargumen bahwa sejak awal abad ke-21, China berusaha meningkatkan citranya sebagai kekuatan global baru melalui transformasi politik luar negeri. Untuk memperluas ruang politik, China tidak hanya menggunakan diplomasi periferi namun juga strategi diplomasi lintas regional melalui mekanisme bilateral dan multilateral. Dalam konteks ini, penulis melihat pada isu spesifik yaitu pembentukan AIIB sebagai bukti partisipasi China dalam politik ekonomi global. AIIB dapat dilihat sebagai praktik multilateralisme politik luar negeri China sebagai upaya memenuhi tantangan pembangunan domestik, regional, maupun global. Dalam hal ini pembentukan AIIB tidak hanya berimplikasi pada kebijakan perdagangan dan keuangan China, tetapi juga pada penyelesaian kesenjangan infrastruktur di Asia sekaligus menantang pengaruh Amerika Serikat (dan Jepang) melalui Bank Pembangunan Asia (ADB), yang mana China memiliki kekuatan politik minor untuk mengakomodasi kepentingan politik ekonominya.

With a stronger popular mandate and a team of rivals standing united behind him, President Jokowi is now in a better position than five years ago to push his reform and revival plans focusing on infrastructure upgrading, human capital development, poverty reduction, and deregulation. Jokowi’s re-election also augurs well for China-Indonesia relations in general and bilateral BRI cooperation in particular, as he will continue to welcome more foreign investment in mega-projects to bring about an infrastructural facelift for Indonesia. A pragmatic Jokowi will not allow long-running thorny issues like territorial disputes, anti-Chinese discrimination and xenophobia to stand in the way of addressing more immediate domestic priorities, such as maintaining high growth rates, pushing for pro-business regulatory reforms, and promoting higher levels of indu...
