Insight Into the Archipelago (Wawasan Nusantara) is the perspective and attitude of the Indonesian nation in its environment, by giving priority to the unity and territorial integrity in organizing the life of society, nation and state. In general, the function of Insight Archipelago is a guidance, motivation, encouragement and signs in determining all wisdom, decision , and good deeds for state organizers at the central and regional levels as well as for all people in the life of society, nation and state. In general, the goal of Nusantara Insight is to realize high nationalism in all fields of the Indonesian people, who have prioritized national interests rather than the interests of individuals, groups, groups, ethnicities / regions. As an archipelagic country with its diverse society, the Indonesian state has elements of strength as well as weakness. Its strength lies in the position and geography of a strategic and rich in natural resources (SDA). While the weakness lies in the form of the archipelago and the diversity of society that must be united in one nation, one country and one homeland. In its life, the Indonesian people can not be separated from the interaction influence and interrelation with the surrounding environment (regional or international). In this case the Indonesian people need the basic principles as a guideline so as not to vacillate in fighting for the national interest to achieve its goals and national goals. 

One of the guidelines of the Indonesian nation of national insight that is based on the shape of the archipelago so called NUSANTARA INSIGHTS. Because only with upanya this nation and state of Indonesia still exist and can continue the struggle toward society fair, prosper and sentosa. Wawasan Nusantara is also a tool that unites all the islands in Indonesia. As we know that the Indonesian nation consists of several islands, and to unite it is not an easy action. After the Declaration of Djuanda that occurred that has given birth to the concept of Archipelagic Archipelago, the archipelago sea is no longer sebgai separator but as a unifier of the Indonesian nation which is addressed as an absolute sovereign territory of the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia. Indonesia's territory, which is largely a waters region, has many weakness gaps that can be exploited by other countries which could eventually undermine even lead to the disintegration of the Indonesian nation. Indonesia which has many islands require tight supervision. Where the supervision is not only done by the TNI / Police, but all levels of Indonesian society. If you only rely on the TNI / Police, the weapon is not complete, the Indonesian nation may have been torn apart by other nations. The case of Sipadan and Ligitan which now belongs to Malaysia, is a proof of the weakness of the Indonesian people to understand the concept of Wawasan Nusantara. Problems faced by the nation of Indonesia increasingly heavy day, the application and understanding of the concept of insight Nusantara as an absolute visional foundation needs to be reinvested in the life order of Indonesian society. The reform euphoria has eliminated direction in equitable and equitable development, due to the loss of visional direction of nation-building. The current era of decentralization and globalization is a challenge and an opportunity for the Indonesian nation to continue to survive and maintain its integrity. The growing globalist challenge will undermine the unity of the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia If it does not have a strong view of life. 

A strong understanding of the concept of insight into the archipelago can be a buffer in maintaining the integrity of the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia. With the vision of the archipelago we can strengthen the sense of unity among the Indonesian population of mutual berbhineka single ika.Dalam this era of Reform, Wawasan Nusantara increasingly blurred in the understanding of the Indonesian nation. The role of insight of the archipelago as a basis of visional diminishing its application in the life of nation and state. The current internal and external conflicts that are not able to be resolved properly due to the fragility of the visional base of the Indonesian nation.
