Abstract
Disputes are things that cause disputes and debates that eventually lead to conflict and usually start from small problems which then lead to serious problems. For example, the conflict that occurred between Indonesia and Timor Leste was caused by a land border dispute between the two countries. The territory of the State of Indonesia has many borders with neighboring countries, both land and sea. In general, people in border areas often experience conflicts that are motivated by seizure of land power from each country. In analyzing the problems in the article, the writer uses the literature study method to support the quality of the article.
