A Critical Evaluation of Indonesia’s Special Economic Zones using New Institutional Economics approach By Munthea Julastuti School of Sociology, Politics and International Studies University of Bristol A dissertation submitted to the University of Bristol in accordance with the requirements for award of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Faculty of Social Science and Law. June 2018 Word count: 110,779 Abstract This thesis investigates how institutions influence political institutions and economic agents’ in making SEZ policy decision and why do these institutions affect the decision. Most existing literature tended to study SEZs economic outcomes, the advantages and disadvantages, and some have emphasised on the political nature of the SEZ development process. While the study on the institutions that influence the policymaking process by key policy actors and why is rare especially in Indonesia. By developing an analytical framework that combines NIE institutional concepts and Williamson’s institutional constraints model, this study examines what have up until now been separately used to study their influence in SEZ policy reform. The combination enabled an analysis on the interplay between Indonesia’s political institutions, policymaking process under economic reform strategies, and policy outcome with regards to SEZ. The empirical case studies presented here show traces of policy interventions and is well-suited to highlight the role that institutions play in determining behaviour. They put more stress on revealing actors’ decision in SEZ policymaking. This study found a causal logic whereby some institutional determinants constrain the state (political actors and economic agents) into making the market well-functioning thereby increasing the risk of SEZ policy change. The actors’ boundedness to their own rationalities has complicated the process of SEZ policy formulation which resulted in SEZ mixed performance. It promotes further questions on the policy appropriateness and the actors’ logic in their policy choice. The study argues that institutions matter in SEZ policy process and its relevant policies. It further argues that SEZ policymaking relevant constraints involve behavioural assumptions, formal and informal rules, human actors, and modes of interaction between various economic agents and political institutions. Findings indicate that policy and institutions have been mutually influencing each other, entailing change or continuity of the status quo and contributing to the institutional arrangement where the government’s current policy decisions affect what options become available in the future. Furthermore, the choice of policies and institutions and their implementation depend on the relevant political landscape and its importance is, in general, undisputed. This study also shows that despite the success of implementing economic development policies and programmes that have managed to restore macroeconomic stability for economic revival, institutional problems in the economic reform process remain. The thesis reveals that the SEZ policymaking process in the following regimes has been potentially affected by the bureaucratic legacy of previous authoritarian rulers. SEZ policy debates and controversies by different regime periods lead to the continual intra-elite rivalry and interjurisdictional competition which still seemed to colour the access to state power while inter-factional tension emerged with higher intensity in the RDO era, often reflected in elite polarisation and thus lead to higher uncertainty, higher transaction costs, and stagnant growth. Therefore, this study suggests that future SEZ policy formulation process should take institutional study into consideration. i Dedication and Acknowledgements I would like to acknowledge my indebtedness and express my sincere gratitude to the scores of people for the opportunities, the trust, the encouragement, the cooperation, the understanding, the intellectual stimulation, and the friendship that made this work possible and an enjoyable experience.

Dr. Ramli headed the nation’s State Logistics Agency and most notably was Coordinating Minister for Economic Affairs under the administration of then President Abdurrahman Wahid and also Minister of Finance among other positions in politics here in Indonesia. Dr. Ramli, thank you for joining me. If I could, could we possibly begin by you giving us a sense of the environment here in Indonesia at this transitional point between the longstanding new order and the post Suharto era? RAMLI: The Suharto regime had been in power for such a long time, more than 32 years before it fell. The longer he stayed, the more authoritarian the nature of his regime. But the core of his political support was essentially the armed forces, the bureaucracy, and of course the ruling party which is Golkar. So it is interesting to note for Suharto to go there should be an underlying shift in the perception of the key player in Indonesian politics, especially the army towards Suharto.

  • The Rise of Islamic Religious-Political
    Hamid Fahmy Zarkasyi THE RISE OF ISLAMIC RELIGIOUS-POLITICAL MOVEMENTS IN INDONESIA The Background, Present Situation and Future1 Hamid Fahmy Zarkasyi The Institute for Islamic Studies of Darussalam, Gontor Ponorogo, Indonesia Abstract: This paper traces the roots of the emergence of Islamic religious and political movements in Indonesia especially during and after their depoliticization during the New Order regime. There were two important impacts of the depoliticization, first, the emergence of various study groups and student organizations in university campuses. Second, the emergence of Islamic political parties after the fall of Suharto. In addition, political freedom after long oppression also helped create religious groups both radical on the one hand and liberal on the other. These radical and liberal groups were not only intellectual movements but also social and political in nature. Although the present confrontation between liberal and moderate Muslims could lead to serious conflict in the future, and would put the democratic atmosphere at risk, the role of the majority of the moderates remains decisive in determining the course of Islam and politics in Indonesia. Keywords: Islamic religious-political movement, liberal Islam, non-liberal Indonesian Muslims. Introduction The rise of Islamic political parties and Islamic religious movements after the fall of Suharto was not abrupt in manner. The process was gradual, involving numbers of national and global factors. 1 The earlier version of this paper was presented at the conference “Islam and Asia: Revisiting the Socio-Political Dimension of Islam,” jointly organized by Japan Institute of International Affairs (JIIA) and Institute of Islamic Understanding Malaysia (IKIM), 15-16 October, Tokyo.

Hutchinson and Siwage Dharma Negara INTRODUCTION To Singapore’s immediate south, the Province of the Riau Islands has a population of 2.2 million, and a land area of 8,200 square kilometres scattered across some 2,000 islands in 240,000 square kilometres of water. The better-known island groups include: Batam, the province’s economic motor; Bintan, its cultural heartland and the site of the provincial capital, Tanjungpinang; and Karimun, a fishing and shipping hub near the Straits of Malacca. These island groups are more outwardly oriented and multiethnic, but the province also includes another three other island groups, namely Natuna, Anambas and Lingga, which are more isolated, rural, and homogeneous. Within Indonesia, the Province of the Riau Islands1 (PRI) is relatively small in demographic terms, and very remote from the centre of power. Logistics connections between PRI and major population centres in Java and Sumatra are underdeveloped and overpriced, effectively barring significant commercial and cultural exchange between the “centre” of the country and this far-off province.

One of Indonesia's programs related to the South China Sea is the development of maritime power in the Natuna Border region. Indonesia affirmed its position to maintain the stability of the Natuna border region through strengthening the values of Indonesian nationalism on Natuna Island in the midst of a growing flow of conflict in the South China Sea. The results of the study found that: (1)the Indonesian paradigm in seeing the South China Sea conflict was understood through observing and strengthening social, economic and security structures on the Natuna border, (2)the values of Indonesian nationalism on the Natuna border after the South China Sea conflict persisted strong and increasing, and (3)Indonesia has a very significant role in maintaining the values of nationalism for Indonesian citizens in the Natuna Border and surrounding areas through strategic efforts in the form of regular visits and the provision of socialization of the state’s sustainable values by the institution authorities and academics who are experts in the field concerned.

  • Contesting Boundaries in the Riau Archipelago
    CAROLE FAUCHER Contesting boundaries in the Riau Archipelago The fall of the New Order and the implementation of the regional autonomy laws have provided fresh opportunities for the local elite to promote and consolidate their own sphere of influence. As has already been the case in a number of provinces and districts, instances of conflict have spread, often in the context of power struggles and highly complex social and political restructurings (H. Schulte Nordholt 2002). In many cases, these conflicts are popularly articulated through the language of ethnic and religious identity politics. Similarly, ethnic and religious sensitivities which were consciously repressed during the period of the New Order, are now exposed. The Riau Archipelago (or Kepri from Kepulauan Riau) had been so far largely spared from acute tensions and mounting violence. However, among the urban middle class and between generations ideological polarization has taken place. The different attempts to conceptualize ‘Masyarakat Kepri’ – the society of Kepulauan Riau – by politicians and public intellectuals seems to demonstrate how an increasing emphasis on regional identity has gradually superseded a more general concern with the nation. The discussion about the character of the newly formed province of Kepri has oscillated over the past years between the aristocrats’ ideal of reverting to the era of the sultanate, and an image of an industrial oriented pluralistic society, advocated by business people, which is strong and autonomous enough to compete economically with Singapore and Malaysia. The proximity to Malaysia and Singapore has created an interesting para- dox. On one hand, Singapore and Malaysia have been a source of identity for the Malays in the Riau Archipelago as important economic and cultural power bases.

  • Amidst Indonesia's Nationalist Atmospherics: the Changing
    ISSUE: 2015 NO.64 ISSN 2335-6677 RESEARCHERS AT ISEAS – YUSOF ISHAK INSTITUTE SHARE THEIR UNDERSTANDING OF CURRENT EVENTS Singapore | 6 November 2015 Amidst Indonesia’s Nationalist Atmospherics: The Changing Politics of Jokowi’s Economics By Max Lane EXECUTIVE SUMMARY President Joko Widodo is continuing to make economic growth policies, centred on attracting investment for infrastructure, his main political priority. Other issues such as his “Revolusi Mental” (Mental Revolution) or reconciliation over major human rights violations are receiving little profile. Central to Widodo’s strategy to attract investment has been two packages of policy changes aimed at cutting regulations that might hinder business investment, especially foreign business investment. A strategy so clearly reliant on open appeals to foreign money, and on deregulation to make investment easier, risks criticism on nationalistic grounds, given the nationalistic atmospherics of the 2015 election campaign and an extensive existing critique of neo- liberal deregulatory policies as being anti-national. Widodo’s government introduced some initial symbolic nationalistic policies – but they have been rewound, while nationalistic posturing on minor or “sub-text” issues has become a feature of daily politics. Nationalistic posturing remains constant but only at a low level as there appears to be no ideological – or even tactical – opposition from within parliament to Widodo’s policies. The parliamentary opposition’s own credibility as anti-foreign critics has been weakened by some of its own actions. 1 ISSUE: 2015 NO.64 ISSN 2335-6677 More fundamental nationalist economic policies – obligatory use of the rupiah and an extended Negative Investments List 1 – do remain in place, causing some Western foreign investors to remain cautious.
