“…Common problems faced by people at the border are isolation, underdevelopment, poverty, high prices of goods and services, limited facilities and infrastructure for public services (infrastructure), low quality of human resources, and uneven distribution of the population. Whereas national problems are in the form of government policies that are not in favor of border area development and lack of personnel, budget, facilities, and welfare; illegal cross-border trade; lack of access and media for communication and information in the country and not yet optimal coordination across sectors and regions in handling border areas (Mite et al, 2020).…”

Participatory communication will occur if in its implementation it takes into account the characteristics of the community based on their potential and local wisdom. This research examines how participatory communication is implemented in community empowerment programs on the Indonesia-Papua New Guinea border. The results of the research explain that community empowerment program communication has not been fully carried out in a participatory manner with dialogue that involves the full support of the community. Government support in building communication participation has been implemented, but not all people at the border can feel it. The characteristics of the community on the Indonesia-Papua New Guinea border are relatively low, as can be seen from the low level of education, income level, access to communication and low access to information. Government support has not been optimal in terms of access to information on community empowerment programs at the border.

“…There are a number of papers that focus on international relations and security implications of this borderland (Blaskett, 1989;Teturan et al, 2019;Mite et al, 2020), welfare outcomes along the borderland (Mangku, 2021), and notably one paper which focuses on the geospatial planning of a border post and its surrounding area (Latif & Augustan, 2017) border is yet to be investigated in greater depth.…”

Although some studies have mentioned land use and land cover across the borderlands of New Guinea, there have not yet been a series of systematic studies that link the topic with the construction of the Sota border post (Pos Lintas Batas Negara–“PLBN Sota”). With reference to realism, liberalism and asymmetrical power relations, this study examines the development impacts of the Sota border post. A set of interdisciplinary mixed-methods approaches are used including geospatial and earth observation analysis, collation of bureau of statistics data as well as academic and grey literature review. Results provide a baseline land cover assessment for the study area surrounding the Sota border post. There have also been a range of socio-economic and biophysical impacts of the infrastructural and immigration capacities along the Southern borderlands of New Guinea. In terms of international relations, the presence of the Sota border post is expected to foster cooperation between Indonesia and PNG, decrease conflict, and promote stability in the border area. As a result, both realism and liberalism can be used as theoretical frameworks to understand the trajectory of developments along the borderlands. However, due to the asymmetries of power, the rhetoric of liberalism may be rendered less convincing.KEYWORDS:Asymmetries of Power; Indonesia and PNG; International Relations; Land Cover and Land Use Change; Sota Border Post
