Description
Summary:State sovereignty, in terms of physical territories or cyberspace, is fundamental to a nation's independence. However, cyberspace lacks clear territorial boundaries, complicating the exercise of jurisdictional authority. Indonesia's reliance on foreign cyber infrastructure heightens its cyber vulnerability and weakens its cyber sovereignty. This research examines how Indonesia's traditional concept of "Gotong Royong" (mutual cooperation) could address these cyber sovereignty challenges. Using a normative legal research methodology and a comparative law approach, the research compares Indonesia's cyber sovereignty with that of the People's Republic of China. It argues that adapting the Gotong Royong principle, in line with the Universal People's Defense System outlined in Law Number 3 of 2002 on National Defense, could enhance Indonesia's cyber sovereignty. This approach involves engaging all citizens, regional entities, and national resources in safeguarding cyberspace.
