Jakarta (ANTARA) - The Coordinating Minister for Law, Human Rights,\nImmigration, and Correctional Affairs, Yusril Ihza Mahendra, stated that\nthe transformation of General Legal Administration (AHU) services must\ncontinue to prioritise security and data protection.<\/p>\n
During the \u201cMinisterial Dialogue for Impactful AHU Services\u201d event in\nBandung, West Java, on Monday (31\/8), he noted that integration does not\nmean all data is collected in a single location, but rather ensures that\nevery piece of data has a clear source, controlled access, and is used\naccording as its purpose and legitimate authority.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe speed of service must not be paid for with a reduction in legal\nprudence. Data must be secure, accurate, and trustworthy, and every use\nof it must be accountable,\u201d said Yusril, as confirmed in Jakarta on\nTuesday.<\/p>\n
Yusril noted that the scale of AHU services demonstrates the\nsignificant public demand for fast and certain legal services.\nThroughout 2025, it was recorded that 11.38 million services were\ncompleted, with an application completion rate of 99.52 per cent.\nMeanwhile, in the first semester of 2026, approximately 5.5 million\napplications had been processed.<\/p>\n
However, according to him, the high volume of completed services is\nnot the ultimate goal, as the success of the transformation must be\nmeasured by the impact felt by the public and the business community. He\ncited examples such as shorter service times, lower costs, faster legal\ncertainty, and greater ease in conducting economic activities.<\/p>\n
Thus, he emphasised that while the large number of transactions is an\nachievement, the real impact on society and the business world remains\nthe primary objective. \u201cAHU services must be able to provide legal\ncertainty while simultaneously facilitating the economic activities of\nthe community,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
To realise impactful AHU services, Yusril emphasised the importance\nof cross-ministerial and inter-agency collaboration. It was noted that\nthe integration of AHU services is linked to various sectors, ranging\nfrom population and immigration to payments, Non-Tax State Revenue\n(PNBP), Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprise (MSME) legality, overseas\nservices, and bureaucratic reform.<\/p>\n
In his view, the main challenge lies not solely in technology, but at\nthe intersection of inter-agency authority. Therefore, he continued,\nthere is a need for regulatory harmonisation, the integration of data\nsources and systems, and coordination mechanisms capable of resolving\ncross-authority obstacles.<\/p>\n
\u201cCollaboration is the key to providing legal services that are\nintegrated, modern, and truly impactful for the community,\u201d said\nYusril.<\/p>\n
He also encouraged four strategic agendas for the transformation of\nAHU services: mapping priority services, establishing authoritative data\nsources, measuring service impact, and appointing clear persons in\ncharge. He stated that these steps should be followed by identifying\nservices that need integration, integrating data sources and systems,\nharmonising regulations, strengthening coordination mechanisms, and\nmeasuring and publishing the impact of services to the public.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe ministerial dialogue must result in real decisions and follow-up\nactions. We need to select priority services, build data connectivity\nwith clear security standards, standardise provisions and procedures,\nand measure the real impact on time, cost, legal certainty, and the ease\nof doing business,\u201d he revealed.<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/yusril-ahu-transformation-must-prioritise-data-protection-1788267814", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
