Human Rights Advocate Urges AMIN to Address Urgent and Perennial Key Issues
JAKARTA | KBA – “What I want to convey to AMIN is the matter of law enforcement, anti-corruption efforts, and the fair and dignified resolution of past human rights violations so that our nation can stand tall and confidently face other nations. Take, for example, Germany, which successfully addressed the Holocaust issue fairly and with dignity.”
“As a result, among European countries, Germany excelled in resolving economic crises in its own country and within the European Union. They became a society open to all nations forced to migrate due to wars or other reasons,” she said on Wednesday, October 4, 2023.
In contrast, she noted that in various international forums, such as the United Nations, Indonesia continually faces various human rights violation issues, especially in Papua today. “For a civilized nation, this should be a source of shame. Our natural resources are being sold while the local population experiences violence, including armed violence, and the majority of its people live in poverty.”
“Lastly, what I believe is crucial is the effort to enhance political education, including anti-corruption and citizenship education for the Indonesian people to be more aware of their rights and responsibilities and to realize their constitutional rights properly,” Nursyahbani added.
She mentioned that there have been numerous evaluations regarding the implementation of the 1945 Constitution and the reform agenda.
“As presidential and vice-presidential candidates, AMIN should take note of the aspirations of various groups, especially the economically, socially, and politically marginalized common people. Don’t let the people’s voices be used solely for legitimizing power without benefiting them as the sovereigns of this nation,” she emphasized.
Nursyahbani further stressed the need for special attention to be given to women, not only because they are the majority but also due to the historical factors of oppression stemming from the strong patriarchal culture reinforced by media, religious teachings, culture, and discriminatory rules.
“This includes changes to the education curriculum to make the Indonesian people aware that equality, including social and gender equality, is crucial in developing a just and prosperous Indonesia, leading to Indonesia’s golden age by 2045,” she explained.
Nursyahbani evaluated that positive practices, such as involving as many young people – including women – in collaboration with the government, should be maintained by AMIN.
“Programs like ‘Indonesia Mengajar’ which collaborate with young people to improve education quality in remote villages, relying on young people who are usually creative and innovative, need to be continued more systematically and programmatically.”
“Health service centers, especially those focused on women’s health to reduce maternal and child mortality and child stunting, must become flagship programs to achieve SDGs related to women and the impoverished population by the year 2030,” she concluded. (kba)
