The Stability

South China Sea is only a small part on the map, but it plays a vital role in the stability of the Pacific-Asian region. South China Sea issue has been under spotlight. Five countries have claimed their rights on these tiny islands splashed in the region of South China Sea. Spratly Islands (Nansha) is endowed with abundant natural resources of petroleum, gas, and others. China, as an emerging super power, plays an important role in maintaining the stability of the region. Which role will China play, a bull in the china shop or a coordinator in finding a peaceful solution? This paper attempts to answer this question by presenting a critical assessment of China’s role in the South China Sea dispute.

Stress Ratios

This study examines the cyclic behavior of calcareous sand obtained from the South China Sea. A series of undrained cyclic triaxial tests were performed on the calcareous sand with various relative densities, cyclic stress ratios, and effective confining pressures. The test results show that whereas the effective confining pressure exhibited a small influence on the cyclic behavior of the calcareous sand, the effect of changes in CSR and relative density was notable. Due to its angular nature, the liquefaction resistance of calcareous sand was much higher than that of silica sand. In addition, differences between calcareous and silica sands in terms of pore pressure generation characteristics and deformation responses were also observed.

The Relationship

This article aims to analyze the strategic position of Indonesia in South China Sea (SCS) towards the military partnership of Indonesia and China from 2010-2015. The aim of this research is to analyze how the strategic position of Indonesia influences the military relationship between Indonesia and China.The South China Sea is one of the most strategic and influential regions; it has the capability to threaten the stability of Southeast Asia. Indonesia as one of the most significant countries in ASEAN geographically, has a strategic but conflicted position. This research will analyze how the strategic position of Indonesia in theSCS influences their military partnership with China.This research formulates questions as to how the Indonesian strategic position in the South China Sea influences the China-Indonesia military relationship in 2010-2015? This article a neo-realist theory, a national security concept and a geo-strategic concept to accomplish this. It also uses a qualitative method of analysis through research papers and holding interviews. Through the three concepts and school of thought, this research has found that there is an influence on the strategic position of Indonesia in the militaristic relationshipbetween Indonesia and China. The strategic location of Indonesia in the South China Sea and the significant role Indonesia plays in ASEAN can positively affect the relationship between Indonesia and China.

The Stability

This research tries to explain Indonesia’s effort in the South China Sea conflict resolution process. The South China Sea conflict can lead to regional instability. Indonesia can’t directly resolve the conflict because Indonesia is not a claimaint state. But, Indonesia can encourage claimant states to resolve their conflicts peacefully. As the largest country in ASEAN, Indonesia has an obligation to maintain the stability of the region. The type of this research is descriptive qualitative with data collection technique through interview and literature study. The results concluded that Indonesia's efforts in establishing the situation through confidence buiding measures and cooperation has been able to dampen the source of conflict and keep the region stable. Indonesia has managed conflict even though it is still very far from the possibility of conflict resolution.
