Recommendation
Description
1.
Strengthening Legality
Based on the Siracusa Principles and the Human Rights
Law, restrictions on human rights in the context of a health
emergency must have a robust legal basis. The legality
not only establishes a clear legal status for authorities
in implementing some restrictions but also to provide
transparency.
2.
Centralized Policy Platform
There is a need for a centralized policy platform that is
controlled by the central government, which is transparent,
accountable, non-discriminatory, and participatory. Such a
platfrom can be used to regulate social restrictions/mobility,
distribution of aid, and integrated public communication.
3.
Proportional Regional Quarantine
Policy
Komnas HAM RI recommends measurable and proportional
quarantine according to factual assessments, vulnerability
level, epidemiological basis. However, the government
chose to implement PSBB (Large-Scale Social Restrictions)
while some areas applied partial quarantine.
4.
Strict Mobilization and Crowd Policy
Komnas HAM RI recommends firm action for violators
of the PSBB /social/physical distancing policy, including
arrangement in mobility limitation exception and how to
worship in places/houses of worship.
5.
Up-to-date and Transparent
Information on Covid Tracker
The need for policies and mechanisms for situational
reform according to the transparency principle. However,
in practice, there are differences in data between the
central and regional governments, and mortality rates are
underreported, and the standards and guidelines from the
WHO are not followed in the reporting.
6.
Reducing the Number of Shelters in
Prisons and Detention Centers
Komnas HAM RI recommends the government respond to
excess occupants in prisons and youth detention centers to
prevent the spread of COVID-19.
