Abstract
This paper aims to explain Indonesia’s rejection to resolve its 2015 forest and land fire disaster under the
mechanism of Joint Emergency Response provided in the ASEAN Agreement on Transboundary Haze Pollution.
The haze caused by forest and land fires in Indonesia raised threats to not only itself but also states in the
region of Southeast Asia. As it was declared as a regional problem, ASEAN then responded by creating a
common framework called the ASEAN Agreement on Transboundary Haze Pollution in 2002 and Indonesia was
the last ratifying the agreement in 2014; more than a decade after its inception. Indonesia, however, refused to
pick the AATHP Joint Emergency Response to tackle the 2015 disaster within its territorry despite its most
serious recurring disaster since 1997. This research applied the qualitative method with a causal correlation
analysis. The research applied Charles O. Lerche and Abdul A. Said’s national interest theory. The research
found that Indonesia’s rejection was driven by its national interests such as image, economy and politics which
were much more important than others. Instead, Indonesia preferred the domestic efforts and bilateral
cooperation to respond to it. The paper argues that the Southeast Asian regional institution is not able to offer
incentives overtaking states’ domestic-oriented national interests.
