Investment spaceport development technology for sustainable Biak Papua Republic of Indonesia and System diplomacy. A spaceport is a launch facility that has been used for at least one successful orbital launch. Spaceports are introduced by developed countries in the space sector. In its development, developing countries in the space sector such as Indonesia are also planning to build spaceports. The Indonesia spaceport development is based on Law no. 21 of 2013 on Space Activities and Presidential Regulation of the Republic of Indonesia No. 45 of 2017 on the 2016-2040 Master Plan for the Implementation of Space. Eastern Indonesia, especially Biak, Papua was chosen as the location to build a spaceport. However, Indonesia faces problems in building the Biak spaceport, namely the nature of space technology which is high-tech; high-cost; and high-risk. The purpose of this research is to find out and analyze the role of the Biak spaceport in Indonesian public diplomacy. The design of this research is descriptive qualitative which applies the theory of liberalism, the concept of cooperation, and the concept of public diplomacy.
