        "content": "<p>Bandarlampung (ANTARA) - Indonesia\u2019s National Counter-Terrorism\nAgency (BNPT) is stepping up efforts to prevent radicalisation among\nyoung people by promoting literacy, education and national-awareness\nprogrammes in schools.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese efforts are part of Indonesia\u2019s counter-terrorism prevention\nstrategy, particularly to anticipate the spread of radical ideas through\ndigital spaces, which can readily reach young people,\u201d BNPT Head Eddy\nHartono said in Bandarlampung on Wednesday.<\/p>\n<p>He said Indonesia had a strong legal and institutional framework to\nsupport counter-terrorism efforts, including Law No.\u00a05 of 2018 on the\nEradication of Criminal Acts of Terrorism.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNationally, Indonesia is in a state of controlled alert. This means\nthe threat exists, but is under control because the state is present,\u201d\nhe said.<\/p>\n<p>Prevention, he said, was being pursued through two main approaches:\nderadicalisation for groups already exposed to radical ideas, and\nmitigation to prevent those ideas from spreading, particularly among\nyoung people.<\/p>\n<p>Deradicalisation interventions had been carried out among targeted\ngroups, he said. Mitigation efforts, meanwhile, focused on strengthening\nnational understanding through outreach, literacy initiatives and\neducation, especially for lower-secondary pupils and their\nequivalents.<\/p>\n<p>The national-awareness programme is planned to reach schools with the\ninvolvement of various stakeholders, including regional governments and\nyouth organisations, he said.<\/p>",
