"At present time, the augmentation of "regionalism" has become a striking feature of international economic relations. The motives toward regionalism itself are complex: a belief that economic integration through regionalism is conducive to growth, disillusionment with the framework for global integration, or simply a defensive reaction to the formation or reinforcement of other trading blocs. Regionalism does not merely embrace economic perspective since it also emphasizes on the cultural, social, and political aspects of human existence. This writing calls for an analysis of the paths which Indonesia chooses in pursuing its policies and objectives in the greatly dynamic regionalism and international economic framework. This writing restricts its scope on three domains of observation: ASEAN, APEC, and G20 and beyond."

"Dengan meningkatnya perselisihan yang terjadi di antara Tiongkok dan Amerika Serikat, seperti konflik Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) Korea-Tiongkok pada 2016 dan penerapan nasionalisme ekonomi pada masa pemerintahan Presiden Trump membuat Korea Selatan sadar bahwa ketergantungan terhadap negara-negara adidaya harus segera dikurangi. Oleh karena itu, tidak lama setelah menjabat sebagai presiden, Presiden Moon Jae In akhirnya berinisiatif untuk membuat New Southern Policy (NSP), yaitu kebijakan luar negeri baru yang berfokus pada bumi bagian selatan (ASEAN dan India) untuk mengurangi ketergantungan ekonomi Korea Selatan terhadap negara adidaya. ASEAN, terutama Indonesia, berperan besar atas suksesnya NSP. Hal ini memberikan dampak positif bagi iklim kerja sama dan perekonomian bagi Indonesia maupun Korea Selatan. Berdasarkan latar belakang ini, kemudian dirumuskan pertanyaan penelitian berupa bagaimana respon Indonesia serta dampak yang dihasilkan dari kerja sama Korea-Indonesia melalui kebijakan NSP?. Dengan itu, penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menjelaskan respon Indonesia dan perubahan yang dihasilkan dari kerja sama ekonomi yang dilakukan melalui kebijakan NSP. Metode penelitian deskriptif-kualitatif juga digunakan untuk menjelaskan respon dan dampak kebijakan tersebut terhadap perekonomian Indonesia. Hasil dari penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa kebijakan NSP membuat hubungan bilateral, terutama dalam aspek ekonomi, kedua negara menjadi semakin erat melalui peningkatan tingkat kemitraan dari level Strategic Partnership menjadi Special Strategic Partnership.

Amidst the increasing disputes between China and the United States, such as the Korea-China Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) conflict in 2016 and the implementation of economic protectionism during President Trump's administration, South Korea realised that their dependence on superpowers must be reduced immediately. Therefore, not long after taking office, President Moon Jae In had the initiative to create the New Southern Policy (NSP), the new foreign policy that focuses on the southern hemisphere (ASEAN and India) aimed to reduce South Korea's economic dependence on the superpowers. ASEAN, especially Indonesia, played a major role in the success of the NSP. This resulted in positive impacts on both bilateral cooperation and the economic aspect for Indonesia and South Korea. As follows, then formulates a research question of how is Indonesia's response and what are the impacts of Korea-Indonesia cooperation through the NSP? With that in mind, this study aims to explain Indonesia's response and the results from economic cooperation carried out through the NSP. Thus, the descriptive- qualitative research method is utilised to explain the response and impacts of this policy to Indonesia’s economy. The findings of this study show that the NSP improved bilateral relations, particularly in economic aspects, between the two nations by raising the level of collaboration from the Strategic Partnership level to the Special Strategic Partnership.
