Abstract

The Ambalat dispute between Indonesia and Malaysia challenges ASEAN's effectiveness in resolving Southeast Asian maritime border conflicts, where non-intervention principles hinder formal mediation. This study aims to evaluate ASEAN's regional mechanisms, particularly ARF and APSC, and supporting factors via Regional Security Complex Theory (RSCT) on the Ambalat case. Descriptive qualitative research using library methods; population comprises ASEAN policy documents and regional security literature, sample focuses on Ambalat case study. Instruments include RSCT analytical categories and document checklists; data analyzed via content analysis. Findings reveal ASEAN's ineffectiveness as bilateralism prevails, forming a nascent security complex with maritime externalities. Conclusions recommend ASEAN Way reforms and UNCLOS strengthening.
