| Abstract | This paper is written from the perspective of ASEAN Charter to explores the obstacles of Timor-Leste to be a new member of ASEAN under perspective of ASEAN Charter. This paper is mainly explored in article 6 of ASEAN Charter which is the provision related to admission of new ASEAN member. To analyze why article 6 could not be activated in reality for Timor-Leste to be a new member of ASEAN, there are five key elements to analyze such as (1) geographic location, (2) recognition by all ASEAN member state, (3) economic and political challenge, (4) institutional limitations, and (5) ASEAN consensus. Hence in order to unlock article 6, the author proposes ASEAN to revise the decision-making mode of ASEAN under article 20(1) of ASEAN Charter by applying the majority vote or negative consensus (reverse consensus) method for ASEAN Summit instead of consultation and positive consensus. |
