This journal discusses the strategic importance of Indonesia in international maritime transportation in the Malacca Strait. The Malacca Strait serves as a crucial shipping lane connecting East and West Asia, making it of great value in global trade. As a country with territory along the Strait, Indonesia plays a critical role in ensuring the security and efficiency of maritime transportation in the region. The study used a qualitative descriptive approach, gathering data from various sources such as literature, statistical data, and expert interviews. The findings indicate that Indonesia's position is strategic due to its direct adjacency to the Strait. However, the country faces several challenges in maintaining maritime security, including terrorism, ship theft, and environmental pollution. To address these challenges, the study recommends that Indonesia increase cooperation with neighboring countries and enhance its maritime security capacity. The research has significant implications for government policy, particularly in the development of international maritime transportation in the Malacca Strait. Furthermore, it can contribute to Indonesia's overall maritime security strategy. Overall, this study highlights the importance of Indonesia's role in international maritime transportation in the Malacca Strait and emphasizes the need for increased cooperation and capacity building to ensure the security and smooth running of maritime transportation in the region.

The readiness of Indonesia's national defense to face threats in the Asia-Pacific region has become a major concern for the government and society. The dynamic and complex geopolitical conditions in the region demand strategic efforts and optimal readiness from a defense standpoint. This study aims to analyze Indonesia's defense readiness when facing threats in the Asia-Pacific region. The method used is a qualitative-descriptive approach using secondary data from various relevant sources. The results of the study show that Indonesia's state defense readiness has experienced a significant increase in the last few years. Nonetheless, there are still a number of challenges that must be faced. These include expanding the scope of threats, modernization and increasingly sophisticated military technology, and limited human resources. Therefore, further efforts are needed to improve Indonesia's state defense readiness through the development of better military infrastructure, increasing human resource capabilities, and cooperation with other countries in the Asia-Pacific region. The expansion of threats such as cyber threats and maritime security has highlighted the need for nations to focus on developing their defense capabilities. In order to effectively respond to these new and evolving threats, it is important to prioritize modernization and invest in more sophisticated defense equipment. This includes not only purchasing new equipment, but also investing in the development of cutting-edge technology. However, this modernization presents challenges. Requires significant financial resources, and as a result, governments must carefully allocate their defense budgets to ensure that they are investing in the most effective and efficient ways possible.
