“…On one hand, academic studies on Aceh's paradiplomacy are still limited. For instance, Mukti (2019) examines Aceh's paradiplomacy, and Mukti and others (2019) examine the comparative context of Aceh‐Catalonia paradiplomacy. On the other hand, Quebec's paradiplomacy is widely studied in the context of the Quebec‐Wallonia comparative study (Vychodilová, 2011), the paradiplomacy identity of Quebec for the purpose of national independence (Paquin, 2018), why and when substate actors (one of them is Quebec) develop paradiplomacy (Kooistra, 2017), and several considerations that pushed Quebec into the international community (Kirkey et al, 2016).…”

This article aims to understand paradiplomacy practices in Indonesia by identifying the characteristics of Aceh's paradiplomacy and reviewing it comparatively with the paradiplomacy of Quebec, Canada. The data was collected by documentation study, interview, and literature search. The practice of paradiplomacy in Indonesia is framed in a unitary state system in which the central government still dominates regional foreign activities and the regional awareness for the need of foreign relations is still minimal. This is different from the Province of Quebec in Canada wherein Quebec is one of the most active provinces to take part abroad for the fulfillment of their regional interests. We conclude that the characteristics of paradiplomacy are determined by the institutionalization of paradiplomacy in the regions and the pattern of relations between the central and regional government which usually refers to the form of the state whether unitary or federalist.

“…Third, the practice of paradiplomacy in the Indo-Pacific is not maximised because many paradiplomacy practices reach the memorandum of understanding (MoU) stage without a real implementation program. Even if the cooperation can be realised, its implementation often fails and is limited to signing a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) (Mukti, 2019). This means that cooperation is still ineffective because the main objective of paradiplomacy practice, namely, to develop provinces and cities, remains unfulfilled.…”

This study discusses local governments' opportunities and challenges in practising paradiplomacy in the Indo-Pacific region. A country's central government owns the authority to practice international relations, and local governments also own this authority through paradiplomacy practices. This study uses qualitative research methods by searching for theoretical references relevant to cases or problems found in various literature, mainly scientific journals, books, reports, and actual and trusted news on the internet. This paper aims to reveal local governments' opportunities and challenges in paradigmatic practice, especially in the Indo-Pacific region. From the analysis results, the practice of paradiplomacy in the Indo Pacific. This paper aims to reveal local governments' opportunities and challenges in paradiplomacy practice, especially in the Indo-Pacific region. From the analysis results, the practice of paradiplomacy in the Indo-Pacific is quite good but not maximised because many paradiplomacy practices reach the MoU stage. In contrast, they have not reached the program implementation frame. Generally, the Indo-Pacific region's opportunities for the practice of paradiplomacy are quite large because the regions in the Indo-Pacific region have many similarities, which is one of the crucial indicators in the practice of paradiplomacy.

“…Responding to the dynamics of local politics in Aceh since 2009, the President issued a particular decision to regulate paradiplomacy affairs for Aceh, which stressed that only the governor could sign and carry out foreign cooperation. The presidential decree also requires Aceh to include phrases saying that Aceh is part of the Republic of Indonesia in each of its international cooperation documents (Mukti, 2019). This specific policy on Aceh's paradiplomacy clearly illustrates the potential for the exercise of paradiplomacy authority that does not follow the central government's foreign policy.…”

This analysis focuses on the paradiplomatic policies in Indonesia and Korea. The two countries have similar characteristics, namely as unitary state systems, and enacted regional autonomy in the same era, 1998s. This qualitative research aims to examine paradiplomatic types in both countries and why the policies are rationalized. The findings revealed that although both countries are unitary states, paradiplomatic activism runs in different types. Provinces and cities in Indonesia face many restrictions and limitations by national regulations, while regional governments in Korea have more discretions and authorities to practice paradiplomacy around the world. The research finding also portrayed several provinces in Indonesia instrumentalizing paradiplomacy as instruments to provide international recognitions related to self-determination, and this similar fact is not met in Korea. This paper argues that the different types of paradiplomatic policies in both countries are influenced by domestic political conditions and typically influenced by the presence or absence of regional movements.
