Professionals and activists have required a larger civil motion and cumulative civil disobedience to convey public suspect in the government following the passage of the controversial omnibus law on task production at the start of this month.
They called the general public to respond to this situation not as a part of a particular group however as individuals as the federal government had actually disregarded their rights, particularly the right to info by identifying what made up as fake news.
Scientist at a human rights group Hakasasi.id Yati Andriyani said civil movements should be cross-issue and cross-generational, as taken place in Hong Kong and Thailand, in addition to the #BlackLivesMatter motion.
” We need a movement that is cross-issue and natural. It has no shape and is not dependent on particular leaders,” she said in a virtual presser on Monday.
Josardi Azhar, a trainee protester from Gadjah Mada University (UGM), who is part of the People Movement Alliance (ARB) that held huge rallies in Gejayan, Yogyakarta on Oct. 5, stated protesters must go beyond university commitments.
” At the previous rally, the authorities jailed those who did not wear alma mater coats. I recognized then that those who wore one had security privilege,” he stated.
Gadjah Mada University constitutional law lecturer Zainal Arifin Mochtar stated there were many problems in the deliberation of the law and recommended the general public perform civil disobedience by overlooking the law in addition to holding street demonstrations and sending a judicial review at the Constitutional Court.
” Those are three things that can be done politically, lawfully and socially. They need to be done together,” he said.
