- Leadership: The role of influential member states is crucial in guiding ASEAN policies. Strong leadership can promote consensus and collective action.
- Resources: The availability of resources, both financial and non-financial, greatly affects ASEAN's ability to implement maritime security-related initiatives and programs.
2. External Factors
- Role of Major Countries: The involvement of major powers such as the United States and China in the South China Sea disputes puts significant pressure on ASEAN. The policies and actions of these major countries can influence the political dynamics in the region and limit ASEAN's room for maneuver.
- Regional Power Dynamics: Changes in the balance of power in the Asia-Pacific region also affect the effectiveness of ASEAN's response. The emergence of new powers and competition among major powers can create instability and complicate ASEAN's efforts in maintaining maritime security.
