        "summary": "NasDem has reaffirmed its long-standing commitment to backing the RUU PPRT, the domestic workers protection bill that has stalled for more than two decades. The push comes as Parliament seeks to wrap up the legislation within the current session, amid concerns over violence and exploitation of largely female domestic workers and the need for a clear legal framework. If enacted, the bill would recognise workers' rights, protect them from abuse, and give authorities a strong basis to act against violations.",
        "content": "<p>Jakarta, VIVA \u2013 The discussion of RUU PPRT has again become a focus.\nThe bill, which has been championed for around 22 years, has not yet\nbeen enacted.<\/p>\n<p>In an RDPU with Baleg DPR on Thursday, 5 March, Maria Ulfah, Chair of\nKomnas Perempuan, urged that the RUU PPRT be enacted in a single\nsession, while Baleg DPR Chair Bob Hasan ensured the regulation is\ntargeted to be completed this year.<\/p>\n<p>In response, Ahmad Sahroni, Deputy Chair of DPR\u2019s Commission III,\nemphasised that NasDem has since the outset committed to supporting the\nenactment of the RUU PPRT as a form of legal protection for domestic\nworkers.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe NasDem faction fully supports the enactment of this RUU since it\nfirst entered Parliament in 2014. As the chair of Commission III, I see\nmany cases of violence against domestic workers. Therefore this RUU PPRT\nis absolutely necessary. Because this involves many aspects, especially\nthe potential threats to workers from criminal activity. Bismillah, we\nwill pass it this year,\u201d Sahroni said in a statement on Friday, 6 March\n2026.<\/p>\n<p>According to Sahroni, a dedicated legal framework is needed because\nthe majority of domestic workers are women who are vulnerable to\nviolence, exploitation, and breaches of work rights in domestic spaces\nthat are hard to monitor.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMoreover, the majority of domestic workers are women who tend to be\nmore vulnerable to violence or exploitation without clear legal\nprotections. Therefore, with the enactment of this RUU, the state can\nensure their rights are recognised, their profession respected, and if\nviolations occur, law enforcement has a strong basis to protect them.\nSo, Bismillah, we will pass it this year,\u201d said Sahroni.<\/p>",
