This study is important due to some changes in the Indonesian foreign policy towards Malaysia that have occurred in last few decades.

Therefore, using Defensive Realism, this study has three main objectives (i) to discuss the trend of Indonesian foreign policy towards Malaysia in the context of the Indonesia-Malaysia bilateral relations; (ii) to analyze the Indonesian foreign policy towards Malaysia in the case of Ambalat and Indonesian workers (TKI) and the influence factors; (iii) to analyze the application of Defensive Realism to explain Indonesian foreign policy towards Malaysia in the case of Ambalat and Indonesian workers (TKI). The findings of this study demonstrated that the new international political structure after the end of the Cold War was tremendously impact to the Indonesian foreign policy towards Malaysia in the two cases.
