Indonesia's Active Role in ASEAN in Responding to the Rohingya Human Rights Crisis

The human rights crisis experienced by the Rohingya in Myanmar has become one of the biggest humanitarian issues in Southeast Asia. As an ASEAN member country with significant influence in the region, Indonesia plays an important role in efforts to resolve this crisis. This research aims to analyze the role of Indonesia's diplomacy in encouraging ASEAN to take firmer steps against Myanmar and in providing humanitarian assistance to victims of the crisis. The research method used is a qualitative approach with secondary data analysis, including policy documents, international reports, and related academic studies. The results showed that Indonesia, through a multilateral diplomacy approach, actively encouraged ASEAN to find a peaceful solution, despite being constrained by ASEAN's non-intervention principle and the diverse interests of member states. In addition, Indonesia also showed commitment in providing humanitarian assistance through bilateral and multilateral initiatives. The implications of this research emphasize the importance of Indonesia's diplomatic role not only at the ASEAN level but also in international forums. With the increasing number of Rohingya refugees seeking refuge in neighboring countries, including Indonesia, this research recommends strengthening regional and international collaboration to create a more sustainable solution in resolving the Rohingya crisis as a whole.

Abstract

The human rights crisis experienced by the Rohingya in Myanmar has become one of the biggest humanitarian issues in Southeast Asia. As an ASEAN member country with significant influence in the region, Indonesia plays an important role in efforts to resolve this crisis. This research aims to analyze the role of Indonesia's diplomacy in encouraging ASEAN to take firmer steps against Myanmar and in providing humanitarian assistance to victims of the crisis. The research method used is a qualitative approach with secondary data analysis, including policy documents, international reports, and related academic studies. The results showed that Indonesia, through a multilateral diplomacy approach, actively encouraged ASEAN to find a peaceful solution, despite being constrained by ASEAN's non-intervention principle and the diverse interests of member states. In addition, Indonesia also showed commitment in providing humanitarian assistance through bilateral and multilateral initiatives. The implications of this research emphasize the importance of Indonesia's diplomatic role not only at the ASEAN level but also in international forums. With the increasing number of Rohingya refugees seeking refuge in neighboring countries, including Indonesia, this research recommends strengthening regional and international collaboration to create a more sustainable solution in resolving the Rohingya crisis as a whole.
