Komnas HAM identified several discriminating regulations against persons
with disabilities in the form of inadequate accommodation in courts, the lack
of inclusive planning and budgeting, and the lack of access to public services.
20. Komnas HAM received several cases of discrimination against persons with
disabilities in access to employment. One of the cases happened in South
Solok Regency - West Sumatra Province, in 2018. The local government
discriminated against a person with paraplegia, whose selection results of a
civil servant were canceled.
21. In 2020, Komnas HAM carried out monitoring and investigation functions
following up on a report from the Sunda Wiwitan Community regarding the
seal to close the construction of a place of worship Pasarean Curug Goong in
Kuningan Regency - West Java. Komnas HAM recommended the Regent of
Kuningan remove the seal, and later the seal was reopened by the Regent of
Kuningan.
22. Therefore, Komnas HAM recommends the Government of Indonesia conduct
a comprehensive review and revision of the discriminatory laws and
regulations, both for national laws and local regulations.
23. Komnas HAM also discovered actions of discriminating hate speech based
against racial, religious, and/or ethnic during the 2019 elections. This occurred
during the campaign phase, both through direct media (direct speech, banners,
billboards, etc) or through social media
E. Counter-terrorism measures
24. Komnas HAM takes note of progress on the recognition and reparation to the
victims of terrorism in Law 5/2018 (the revised Anti-Terrorism Law),
especially for victims of terrorism before the enactment of Law 5/2018.
These victims can now receive compensation without having to wait for a
court decision.
25. Based on the revised Anti-Terrorism Law the role of the Indonesia National
Army (TNI) in countering terrorism will be further regulated by issuing a
Presidential Regulation. However, to date, this regulation has not been
issued. Komnas HAM recommends that the regulation would assign military
roles as an auxiliary function - such as information and data, deployment of
personnel, and other relevant matters, under the supervision of the National
Counter-Terrorism Agency (BNPT) and law enforcement institutions.
F. Fight against impunity, and past human rights violations
26. Komnas HAM has carried out an investigation based on Law No. 26/ 2000
on Human Rights Court and concluded 17 cases as alleged gross violations of
human rights. Until this report was prepared, only 4 cases had undergone trial
