ABSTRACT The International Military Education and Training (IMET), has given Indonesian military personnel access to U.S. doctrine and tactics. However, due to the dynamics and changes in priorities of interest between the U.S. and Indonesia, the IMET program has experienced a critical period, when for over a decade, from 1992 to 2005, the U.S. Congress imposed a ban on the program for the Indonesian military. The country also adopted an embargo towards Indonesia in responding to the ‘Santa Cruz’ incident in East Timor in 1991. Not only had the embargo limited defence cooperation with the United States, but also with its alliance countries. During the ‘IMET Ban’ period, access to U.S. professional military education was significantly reduced. The ban fully restricted Indonesian military’s development since the country relied on the American military’s doctrines and tactics. The ban further disrupted the U.S.–Indonesia defence relations. Therefore, through desk research, this article uses process tracing approach to qualitatively examine the dynamic of the US–Indonesia defence relations during the ‘IMET Ban’ period. The lessons learned during this period in the article are important to help the current Trump and Widodo administrations navigate their bilateral defence relations.

美国与印度尼西亚国防关系的动态:“IMET 禁令”时期

摘要 国际军事教育和训练(IMET)使印尼军事人员能够接触到美国的理论和战术。然而,由于美国和印度尼西亚之间利益优先事项的动态和变化,IMET 计划经历了一个关键时期,从 1992 年到 2005 年的十多年来,美国国会对印度尼西亚的计划实施了禁令。军队。为应对1991年东帝汶的“圣克鲁斯”事件,该国还对印度尼西亚实施了禁运。禁运不仅限制了与美国的防务合作,也限制了与其盟国的防务合作。在“IMET 禁令”期间,获得美国职业军事教育的机会显着减少。由于该国依赖美国军队的理论和战术,该禁令完全限制了印尼军队的发展。该禁令进一步扰乱了美国与印度尼西亚的防务关系。因此,本文通过案头研究,采用过程追踪方法,定性地考察了“IMET禁令”期间美印尼国防关系的动态。文章在此期间吸取的经验教训对于帮助现任特朗普和佐科政府把握双边防务关系非常重要。
