        "summary": "Formappi, an Indonesian parliamentary watchdog, has urged the DPR's Legislation Body (Baleg) to prioritise the completion of several crucial draft laws. The organisation criticises Baleg for focusing on bills that align with its own interests rather than addressing broader national legislative priorities, including the Indigenous Communities Bill and the Asset Confiscation Bill.",
        "content": "<p>JAKARTA, KOMPAS.com - The Forum Masyarakat Peduli Parlemen Indonesia\n(Formappi) has reminded that there are several draft laws (RUU) that are\ntruly urgent and need to be completed immediately.<\/p>\n<p>Formappi researcher Lucius Karus said that the DPR\u2019s Legislation Body\n(Baleg) has so far only focused on prioritising RUU that align with its\nown group\u2019s targets without a clear national legislative agenda.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOf the five RUU that Baleg has made a priority, I think the\nIndigenous Communities Bill and the Aceh Governance Bill should indeed\nbe prioritised because they have been awaited for quite some time,\u201d said\nLucius to Kompas.com, Sunday (17\/5\/2026).<\/p>\n<p>Lucius questioned the progress of drafting these two RUU.<\/p>\n<p>He also regretted that these two RUU were not mentioned by Baleg as\npriority RUU even though discussions on these RUU are being held in\nother commissions.<\/p>\n<p>According to Lucius, this ambiguity arises because Baleg is too busy\nacting as a single executor or \u201cfactory\u201d for RUU.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBaleg is busy discussing RUU and, wanting to handle everything\nthemselves, they have even taken over the portion of RUU that should be\ndiscussed by certain Commissions. Baleg ends up being a factory while\nother bodies neglect their oversight role,\u201d said Lucius.<\/p>\n<p>Formappi urges Baleg to immediately open reports on the progress of\nall RUU to the public and stop monopolising the discussion of laws.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBaleg should not only talk about targets for them to work on\nthemselves, but also about how to achieve the overall legislative\ntargets,\u201d said Lucius.<\/p>\n<p>Previously reported, the DPR RI\u2019s Baleg targeted to complete five\nDraft Laws (RUU) during the fifth session of the 2025-2026 parliamentary\nyear which will take place from 12 May to 21 July.<\/p>\n<p>The five RUU in question are the One Data Indonesia Bill, another\npriority RUU is the Aceh Governance Bill, the Strategic Commodities\nBill, the Textile Bill, and the Indigenous Communities Bill.<\/p>\n<p>KOMPAS.com is committed to providing clear, trustworthy and balanced\nfacts.
