JAKARTA, KOMPAS – Within the next two months, the government aims to complete a presidential instruction that accommodates 11 recommendations from the Non-judicial Resolution of Past Gross Human Rights Violations (PPHAM) team. After that, President Joko “Jokowi” Widodo will visit these victims of gross human rights violations, both within the country and abroad. Apart from this being the first step toward the victims’ recovery, it is also expected to be the first step toward unveiling the truth on the path to reconciliation.

Coordinating Political, Legal and Security Affairs Minister Mahfud MD, when contacted in Jakarta on Friday (20/1/2023), said that the PPHAM team’s recommendations would be outlined in a presidential instruction to 17 ministries and agencies. The presidential instruction will be accompanied by a presidential decree on a monitoring team to control the materials and deadlines for each program.
