He is also a Visiting Lecturer at Indonesian Army Staff and Command School. Note d’actualité n°14 de l’Observatoire de l’Asie du Sud-Est Juin 2019 Is there a growing militarization of Indonesian democracy? This article argues that at this point, the military as an organization does not willingly and independently interfere in civilian affairs. Rather, the military’s involvement should be put in its context, notably the weaknesses of successive civilian governments, especially Joko Widodo administration, that forces it to ask for the military for support; personal ambition of General Gatot Nurmantyo, the Chief of the Military, who was using the military as a tool for promoting himself for the Presidential Election of 2019; and the institutional weaknesses of the military itself, that created the condition for the involvement of the military in political affairs. The Weaknesses of Civilian Government Introduction One of the characteristics of post-reformation Indonesian In the recent years, there have been concerns about cabinet is its lack of unity. Indonesian bureaucracy is the growing influence of Indonesian military in politics, notorious for its inability to cooperate, as many of the leading one scholar to warn about the “growing ministers are appointed due to their affiliation as part of militarization of Indonesian democracy.”1 Such opinion the ruling coalition, and not based on their competence. was not at all without foundation. Under the former As a result, they treat their ministries as their own fief, Chief of Staff General Gatot Nurmantyo, the Indonesian channeling the state money for the benefit of their military increased its involvement with the civilian political parties and supporters.5 bureaucracy in various social and economic programs, even without written orders from President Joko Any presidential attempt to reform the cabinet and Widodo.2 In January 2019, Air Marshall Hadi Tjahjanto, centralize the power would be politically suicidal. Gatot’s successor, announced that the military would President Abdurrahman Wahid, the first post-reformation revise the Regulation 34 Year 2004, which limits the elected president, put himself on the path of collision role of military in civilian affairs, in order to allow military with political parties and the parliament as he tried to personnel to serve in civilian ministries.3 Tom Power, get rid of some of his ministers, whom he believed to a scholar who specializes in Indonesian political parties, be more loyal to their parties than to him.6 His action argues that President Joko Widodo has been taking an ended up sparking a successful impeachment drive by «authoritarian turn» by mobilizing the military to promote his political opponents in the parliament, under a flimsy, his government’s achievements in order to support his unproven accusation of corruption.7 reelection during the 2019 Presidential Election, which has the obvious effect of expanding the role of the Not surprisingly, Wahid’s successors learned to live with military further in politics.4 unwieldy cabinets that may not have the presidents’ best interests at heart and to keep those party apparatchiks Such concerns, however, are overly alarmist. While the in the cabinet in order to prevent political parties from role of the military in civilian affairs has indeed been causing problems or to launch an impeachment. Even expanding over the past couple of years, it was caused President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono, who was less by the military’s direct willingness to get involved reelected by a landslide majority of 60.80% in 2009 and in politics, than several external and internal factors whose Democratic Party held the largest number of working together. Notably, the weaknesses of the civilian seats in the parliament, with 20.85% of the total seats, government, due to red tape and the way to allocate did not dare to change the system, even though he ministerial seats, General Gatot Nurmantyo’s political grumbled in 2011 that more than 50% of his instructions ambitions, widely believed to harbor the ambition to to his ministers were not followed at all.8 A few months become the next president of Indonesia, and internally, later, he further complained that his ministers were not military’s organizational problems due to its doctrine responsive to problems in the society.9 that focuses on resilience, can be cited as factors for increased military involvement in civilian affairs. These President Joko “Jokowi” Widodo was elected in factors were further exacerbated by the heightened 2014 by 53.15% of the votes. His governing coalition political atmosphere due to 2017 Jakarta gubernatorial in the beginning only held 37.14% of the total seats election, which showed that President Joko Widodo, in in the parliament, making it a minority government. spite of his accomplishment, could be defeated in the His attempt to craft a small cabinet with loyal and Presidential Election of 2019. competent ministers was thwarted by his own vice- president Jusuf Kalla, who forced Jokowi to give fifteen In other words, while the military as an institution does cabinet posts for political parties. Similar to previous not purposely involve itself in civilian affairs, it does get presidents, he also faced entrenched vested interests, involved inadvertently due to the political choices of ineffective local government, rampant corruption, and various actors and its own internal weaknesses. 5 - Marcus Mietzner, “Soldiers, Parties and Bureaucracts: Illicit Fund-Raising in Contemporary Indonesia,” Southeast Asia 1 - Tom Pepinsky, “Civil-Military Relations in Indonesia and the Research, Vol. 16, No. 2 (2008) 241-2 Problem of Surplus Officers,” Personal Blog, February 22, 2019. 6 - Jose Manuel Tesoro, “Nation Adrift,” Asiaweek.com, July 7, (https://tompepinsky.com/2019/02/22/civil-military-relations-in- 2000, Vol. 29, No. 26.

These riots revealed a power struggle among retired generals and factional strife within the Indonesian armed forces that has developed since the 1990s. • The riots also highlighted the deep rivalry between the military and the police which had worsened in the post-Soeharto years. President Widodo is seen to favour the police taking centre-stage in upholding security while pushing the military towards a more professional role. Widodo will have to curb this police-military rivalry before it becomes a crisis for his government. • Retired generals associated with the political opposition are better organized than the retired generals within the administration, and this can become a serious cause of disturbance in Widodo’s second term. * Made Supriatma is Visiting Fellow in the Indonesia Studies Programme at ISEAS – Yusof Ishak Institute. 1 ISSUE: 2019 No. 61 ISSN 2335-6677 INTRODUCTION The Indonesian election commission announced the official results of the 2019 election in the wee hours of 21 May 2019. Supporters of the losing candidate-pair, Prabowo Subianto and Sandiaga Uno, responded to the announcement with a rally a few hours later. The rally went on peacefully until the evening but did not show any sign of dispersing after the legal time limit for holding public demonstrations had passed.

  • Jokowi and His Generals: Appeasement and Personal Relations
    ISSUE: 2019 No. 23 ISSN 2335-6677 RESEARCHERS AT ISEAS – YUSOF ISHAK INSTITUTE ANALYSE CURRENT EVENTS Singapore | 8 April 2019 Jokowi and His Generals: Appeasement and Personal Relations Antonius Made Tony Supriatma* EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Jokowi will be the first civilian president to complete his full five-year term in the post-Soeharto era. A significant factor for this achievement has been his strategy to accommodate the military’s interests to keep them on his side. Five years into his presidency, Jokowi has shown little interest in reforming the military. As reelection time draws near, Jokowi is tightening his relationship with the military, by giving key appointments to commanders within his personal network. The recent TNI reshuffles saw the ascendancy of officers who have had personal relations with the president since early in his political career. Because of the reformasi law abolishing the military’s dual-function (dwifungsi) practice of placing military officers in civilian posts, the TNI has a surplus of many generals and colonels who are unable to hold substantive positions. The Jokowi administration has tried to address this problem by expanding military structures, and raising the level of ranks for various posts. These policies are basically efforts at appeasing the officer corps. His more recent proposal to put active military officers in 60 civilian posts has been criticized as an attempt to revive the military’s dwi-fingsi. * Antonius Made Tony Supriatma is Visiting Fellow in the Indonesian Studies Programme at ISEAS – Yusof Ishak Institute. 1 ISSUE: 2019 No. 23 ISSN 2335-6677 INTRODUCTION There is a simple fact in Indonesian politics which most people overlook.

  • Civil-Military Relations Under Jokowi: Between Military Corporate Interests and Presidential Handholding Evan A
    asia policy, volume 14, number 4 (october 2019), 43–87 1 http://asiapolicy.nbr.org 1 roundtable Indonesia Afer the 2019 Election Alexander R. Arifanto Tomas Pepinsky Evan A. Laksmana Dewi Fortuna Anwar Ann Marie Murphy © Te National Bureau of Asian Research, Seattle, Washington roundtable + indonesia after the 2019 election Civil-Military Relations under Jokowi: Between Military Corporate Interests and Presidential Handholding Evan A. Laksmana his essay examines the disposition of civil-military relations under T President Joko “Jokowi” Widodo. It makes three arguments. First, since assuming ofce in 2014, Jokowi has tended to adopt a hands-of approach in the day-to-day management of military afairs and defense policy. He has relied on a group of retired generals as his intermediary with the Indonesian military (Tentara Nasional Indonesia, or TNI). He also gave the TNI organizational autonomy and even encouraged its involvement in nonmilitary domains, from counterterrorism to food-sufciency programs. Civil-military relations under Jokowi’s frst term were basically on autopilot. Second, Jokowi’s management of the TNI is not unique. All post-Suharto presidents have had to deal with the same dilemma: how to carefully and closely manage the military without threatening its corporate interests. I develop a typology of the responses to this dilemma to classify and compare Jokowi’s civil-military relations with other post-Suharto presidents: B.J. Habibie (1998–99), Abdurrahman Wahid (1999–2001), Megawati Sukarnoputri (2001–4), and Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono (2004–14). Te typology shows that Jokowi’s passive management of the TNI, while protecting the military’s corporate interests, is similar to Sukarnoputri’s approach.

    M. ISA SULAIMAN and GERRY VAN KLINKEN The rise and fall of governor Puteh This chapter started life with only one author, M. Isa Sulaiman. Four days after presenting it at the authors’ conference in Jakarta on 22 December 2004, he was among those who died in the great tsunami that struck Aceh (see in memoriam in this volume). Henk Schulte Nordholt and I decided as editors that the orphaned chapter should pass into my foster-care for the final phase. Isa had lived at our house in Leiden for five months in 2003, where he and I talked often about Aceh. I dare to think he would agree with the way it has been taken forward. He is responsible for all the factual material (drawn from local news clippings and interviews with many of those named). My part has mainly been to step back from it and say why it was important to write this, as well as to make explicit some theoretical understandings that lay hidden between the lines. He was particularly impressed with a chapter on Aceh in David Brown’s ‘The state and ethnic politics in Southeast Asia’ (1994). Some of Isa’s masterly command of detail had to be sacrificed in the interests of the less specialized reader. Gerry van Klinken Introduction Understandably enough, most media reporting on Aceh before the tsunami was about the war. It focussed on the two armed parties, Indonesia’s armed forces TNI (Tentara Nasional Indonesia) and the Acehnese liberation army GAM (Gerakan Aceh Merdeka). This has also been true of scholarly work on Aceh.

The method used is a qualitative method, through searching data from the internet, television and other media regarding political religious discourse that developed in Indonesia through the 2019 election. The data was analyzed with discourse analysis of the models of Althusser and Faucoult. This study concludes that the politicization of religion and discourse of communism are still interesting issues in the political stage approaching general election of 2019. Discourse is used by certain parties as a way of communicating their purposes to attract attention, create images, divide public opinion, and eventually as a channel to build political legitimacy. Keywords: The Politicization of Religion, Communism, Discourse Production, Presidential Election of 2019 INTRODUCTION After the fall of the new order regime under the repressive Soeharto‟s leadership, religious movements tended to strengthen. (Bruinessen, 2013; Hefner, 2010; Al Makin, 2009; Al Makin 2015b). At a certain stage, this movement transformed into a political movement by using certain religious symbols and attributes in its political activities. The inclusion of religion in politics is what became known as the politicization of religion.

Indonesian Presidential Election 2019 Prabowo Subianto: Reluctant Yet Strong Contender By Alexander R Arifianto SYNOPSIS Prabowo Subianto enters the 2019 Indonesian presidential election with less elite support and financial resources compared to incumbent president Joko Widodo. However, he has gained strong backing at the grassroots level by tapping the mobilising power of the conservative Islamic figures and organisations. COMMENTARY PRABOWO SUBIANTO enters the 2019 Indonesian presidential election with lukewarm elite support as well as lack of financial resources to fund his campaign. This is in contrast to his opponent – incumbent president Joko Widodo (Jokowi) – who has gathered endorsements from the majority of political parties, national and regional politicians, retired military officers, and other notables. Having entered the presidential contest in every election since 2004, Prabowo does not seem to spend a lot of time on the campaign trail this election and also does not have the large pool of campaign aides he used to have in previous elections. Instead, Sandiaga Uno, his vice presidential running mate, has been travelling widely across Indonesia to give stump speeches and pay visits to markets, mosques, and other campaign sites.
