A few weeks ago the Yomiuri News on-line reported the following:
中国けん制に最新鋭の装備品提供も思惑にズレ
20150323 2250
 安倍首相とインドネシアのジョコ大統領は23日、海洋安全保障の連携強化を表明した。
 日本は東南アジア諸国連合(ASEAN)の「盟主」であるインドネシアに最新鋭の防衛装備品を提供し、南シナ海で海洋進出を強める中国をけん制したい考えだ。だがインドネシアは巨額の投資を約束する中国に接近中で、日インドネシア間の思惑のズレも指摘される。
 「共にアジアを代表する海洋国家として、戦略的パートナーシップを一層強化することを確認した」
 首相は共同記者発表でこう述べ、海洋安保を含む幅広い協力に意欲を見せた。防衛分野で日本が想定する支援は、海上自衛隊の救難飛行艇「US2」の輸出だ。捜索救難活動だけでなく、周辺海域の巡視にも利用でき、沿岸警備の強化を急ぐインドネシアも関心を寄せている。両国は外務・防衛担当閣僚協議(2プラス2)を早期に開催し、計画の具体化を急ぐ方針だ。

On the 23rd (March) Prime Minister Abe and Indonesian president Joko expressed cooperation in the reinforcement of maritime security.

  Japan held the idea that it would like to offer the latest defense accessories to Indonesia, the "leader" of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) so as to check China that was strengthening its maritime advancement into the South China Sea. But Indonesia was closely connected to China because of the promised huge investment. A difference in expectation between Japan Indonesia was being pointed out.

  "To strengthen the strategic partnership further was confirmed; together we represent Asia maritime countries".

The prime minister said so at a joint press announcement and showed the will to widen cooperation including marine security. The support Japan took up in the field of defense was the exportation of Japan’s Maritime Self-Defense Force "US2" rescue flying boat. Indonesia who was interested in its coastal guard urgent reinforcement could use the boats for inspecting the surrounding sea area as well as for search and rescue activities. Both countries had an urgent policy to hold foreign affairs cum defense ministerial conference (2 plus 2) as soon as possible so as to realize the plans.


Understandably Indonesia would not wish to undermine its trade relationship with China.
