There are interesting analysis of military observers, University of Indonesia, Andy Wijayanto, about the possibility of open war between Indonesia and Malaysia in the conflict area Ambalat Block waters. When Jakarta declared open war with our neighbors, President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono should take into account the state alliance that will support these neighbor countries in the confrontation.
Andy revealed, Malaysia has a system of defensive alliance with England, Australia, Singapore and New Zealand. The alliance called the Five Power Defense Agreement (FPDA). One of the FPDA countries agreement is a clause that an attack on one member state is also an attack against another member state.
"Malaysia's stay request clause is activated. If agreed, it means our country must be prepared to fight also with the UK, Australia, Singapore and New Zealand which have a fighting force far more powerful and sophisticated," he explained after a discussion of the draft Defence and Security.
From the official website of the British High Commission, Kuala Lumpur, it is known that the FPDA was established in 1971 as a consulting agency and the anticipation of an attack on Singapore and Malaysia. When 30-year commemoration FPDA in November 2001, the five member states agreed to establish a long-term cooperation. One of them, agreements to support each other if any of its member countries that attacked another country. This year, the FPDA to focus his review on maritime security. With that focus, the possibility of four other countries to support Malaysia in the confrontation with Indonesia to be bigger.
It's not all. If our country is fighting Britain, the country most likely to request the article in five NATO (North Atlantic) enabled. Articles corresponding to the five FPDA NATO contract clause, which effectively said that the attack suffered by a Member State is considered offensive to other Member States and must face together. Therefore one could extend the meeting with Malaysia and Indonesia has to deal with NATO members.
"So, the effect will be successive. That is what must be considered carefully by the President before the declaration of confrontation with Malaysia. People must understand this is not so dark eyes urging war with Malaysia," said Andy.
