Borders are negotiated between nations when there is doubt, which there currently is.
Building a wall on territory that's being occupied by a nation is NOT in any way acceptable just because that territory isn't a state. If Indonesia had decided to put a wall smack-dab in the middle of East Timor and claimed that was okay because East Timor at the time wasn't a state, it would have been no different. UN Resolution 242 has stated the inadmissability of territory acquired by force, and building a wall deep in that territory is no more acceptable that building settlements there....
