Well-known features found on Oahu include Waikiki, Pearl Harbor, Diamond Head, Hanauma Bay, Kaneohe Bay, Kailua Bay and North Shore. Hawaii is one of four states, besides the original thirteen, that were independent prior to becoming part of the United States, along with the Vermont Republic, the Republic of Texas, and the California Republic, and one of two, along with Texas, that had formal diplomatic recognition internationally. The Kingdom of Hawaii was sovereign from 1810 until 1893 when the monarchy was overthrown by resident businessmen. It was an independent republic from 1894 until 1898, when it was annexed by the United States as a territory, becoming a state in 1959. In 2013, the US Census Bureau estimated that the population of Hawaii was 1,404,054. Oahu, nicknamed "The Gathering Place", is the most populous island with a resident population of just under one million in 597 square miles (1,546 km2). Hawaii is demographically unique and consists of 198,000 (14.6%) Filipino Americans, 185,000 (13.6%) Japanese Americans, 55,000 (4.0%) Chinese Americans, and 24,000 (1.8%) Korean Americans. Indigenous Hawaiians number over 80,000 or 5.9% of the population. Multiracial Americans form almost one-quarter of Hawaii's population,

]xyyxÜáÉÇ YxÄÄÉãá{|Ñá exceeding 320,000 people while the Non-Hispanic Caucasian population numbers approximately 310,000 and forms just over one-fifth of the population.

Its geography ranges from the swampy flatlands of coastal Java to the steep mountain peaks of Irian Jaya, the extensive rainforests of Borneo to the dry islands of East Nusa Tenggara. Economic development differs as widely: Jakarta’s level of income per capita fits that of a higher middle income country such as Brazil. At the other end of the scale, regions such as West Lampung barely have one-tenth of Jakarta’s per capita income. And whereas barely 10 percent of the students in Sambang, East Java make it into senior high school, over 85 percent of the young in North Tanapuli on Sumatera do so. Such geographic, ethnic, resource and educational diversity create a challenging policy environment for a country still in the process of consolidating its democracy. Boediono is the Vice President of Indonesia, after winning the 2009 ]xyyxÜáÉÇ YxÄÄÉãá{|Ñá presidential election together with incumbent President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono.

The Constitutional Court of the Republic of Indonesia was established as a consequence of the third amendment to the Constitution of Indonesia, ratified by the People's Consultative Assembly on yxÜáÉÇ YxÄÄÉãá{|Ñá yxÜáÉÇ YxÄÄÉãá{|Ñá yxÜáÉÇ YxÄÄÉãá{|Ñá yxÜáÉÇ YxÄÄÉãá{|Ñá November 9, 2001. The Constitution Court’s aim is to safeguard democracy and the constitution according the principle of rule of law. Its powers, set out in article 24C of the Constitution, includes the final say in reviewing laws concerning the Constitution, disputes over the authority of state institutions, the dissolution of political parties and disputes over election results. It also is obliged to rule on any attempt to impeach the president. The Indonesian Constitution specifies that the Court must have nine justices. The Indonesian DPR, the president and the Supreme Court are each entitled to appoint three justices to serve five-year terms. The process of appointment of justices to the court is subject to some controversy, most recently, resulting from the arrest of the then-chief justice Akil Mochtar in 2013. The high profile performance of the constitutional court has made it a respected and influential institution in guiding the new democracy of Indonesia. Session will include an overview of the Constitutional Court; its role in Indonesia’s judicial system with emphasis on its independence and authority in resolving election result disputes; challenges to its authority as well as Indonesia’s judicial branch more generally; and examples of its success. Session will include 15-20min observation of court in session. *NOTE*Session translated.

The decentralization of 2001 promised to fundamentally change the locus of responsibility and accountability for public service delivery in Indonesia. However, the potential benefits of decentralization depend crucially on governance. On the one hand, by “bringing government closer to the people,” decentralization can serve as a driving force towards greater inclusivity, social equity and accountability. On the other, local governments may be more prone to elite capture. Session will include an overview of Indonesia’s decentralization in 2001 with special emphasis on the various challenges and successes of its implementation; the relationship between the central government and the newly decentralized local governments; and any legislation currently being considered further decentralizing power or resources. *NOTE*Session in English.

]xyyxÜáÉÇ YxÄÄÉãá{|Ñá Joko “Jokowi” WIDODO Governor of Jakarta LOCATION: Office of the Governor of Jakarta The Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle (PDI-P) is a political party founded and led by Megawati Sukarnoputri, the daughter of Indonesian independence leader and first president Sukarno. Megawati was President of Indonesia from 2001 to 2004. In the 2009 presidential elections PDI-P garnered 26.6% of the vote falling to Yudhoyono’s Democratic Party. Looking ahead to the 2014 elections, populist Jakarta governor, Joko Widodo, is seen as a strong potential candidate for the Indonesian presidential election in 2014. In fact, he is currently leading in voter surveys despite not yet indicting whether he will run. Elected governor of Jakarta in September 2012, Jokowi's win was widely seen as reflecting popular voter support for "new" or "clean" leaders rather than the "old" style of politics in Indonesia. Jokowi has been an active governor known for visiting local communities, often in quite poor areas, across Jakarta to chat with citizens about problems like the price of food, housing difficulties, local flooding, and transport.

Kebon Sirih 32-34, Jakarta The Indonesian National Armed Forces (TNI) comprises approximately 476,000 personnel including the Army, Navy, Marine Corps and the Air Force. While conscription is provided for by 1945 Constitution, the TNI has been able to maintain mandated strength levels without resorting to a draft. During the Suharto era, the military had a dual function (“dwifungsi”) defined as: preservation and enforcement of internal and external security and sovereignty of the State AND overseer and arbiter of government policy. This was used to justify substantial military interference in politics. After the fall of Suharto in 1998, the Indonesian military has undergone certain reformations, such as the disbanding of “dwifungsi” doctrine and the separation of the police force from the military. In particular, the Indonesian Parliament enacted two important acts of legislation that directly changed the structure of the defense sector: National Defense Act 2002 and the National Armed Forces Act 2004. Both of these legislative acts gave Parliament more of direction-setting role for defense policy, including some operational details as well as appointments and allocations or resources. These acts also seek to end the conduct of business enterprises by the military outside the State budget. More recently, the government proposed a national security bill, which allows for the deployment of the military to deal with riots. However, the legislation has been strongly opposed by human rights activists, who claim that it could lead to abuse. Under the 2012 Law on Social Conflict Management, the TNI can be involved in resolving social conflicts, but they can only act under the command of the police. Session will cover Indonesia’s efforts toward greater civilian rule over the military, professionalization and transparency. In particular, the end of military representation in the Parliament and the move to surrender all Indonesian military businesses to the specialist body, the Indonesian Military Business Management Body (BPBTNI), will be discussed. z ECDG ]xyyxÜáÉÇ YxÄÄÉãá{|Ñá g{x fÑÜ|Çz ECDG ]xyyxÜáÉÇ YxÄÄÉãá{|Ñá g{x fÑÜ|Çz ECDG ]xyyxÜáÉÇ YxÄÄÉãá{|Ñá g{x fÑÜ|Çz ECDG ]xy ECDG g{xfÑÜ|Çz YxÄÄÉãá{|Ñá ]xyyxÜáÉÇ ECDG g{x fÑÜ|Çz YxÄÄÉãá{|Ñá ]xyyxÜáÉÇ ECDG g{xfÑÜ|Çz YxÄÄÉãá{|Ñá ]xyyxÜáÉÇ z ECDG ]xy ECDG g{xfÑÜ|Çz YxÄÄÉãá{|Ñá ]xyyxÜáÉÇ ECDG g{x fÑÜ|Çz YxÄÄÉãá{|Ñá ]xyyxÜáÉÇ ECDG g{xfÑÜ|Çz YxÄÄÉãá{|Ñá ]xyyxÜáÉÇ z ECDG ]xy ECDG g{xfÑÜ|Çz YxÄÄÉãá{|Ñá ]xyyxÜáÉÇ ECDG g{x fÑÜ|Çz YxÄÄÉãá{|Ñá ]xyyxÜáÉÇ ECDG g{xfÑÜ|Çz YxÄÄÉãá{|Ñá ]xyyxÜáÉÇ z ECDG ]xy ECDG g{xfÑÜ|Çz YxÄÄÉãá{|Ñá ]xyyxÜáÉÇ ECDG g{x fÑÜ|Çz YxÄÄÉãá{|Ñá ]xyyxÜáÉÇ ECDG g{xfÑÜ|Çz YxÄÄÉãá{|Ñá ]xyyxÜáÉÇ z ECDG *NOTE*Session in English.

CONTACT: [email protected] The 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake was an undersea megathrust earthquake that occurred at 00:58:53 UTC on Sunday December 26, 2004, with an epicenter off the west coast of Sumatra, Indonesia. The resulting tsunami was given various names, including the 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami. The sudden vertical rise of the seabed by several meters during the earthquake displaced massive volumes of water, resulting in a tsunami that struck the coasts of the Indian Ocean. According to the U.S. Geological Survey a total of 227,898 people died. Measured in lives lost, this is one of the ten worst earthquakes in recorded history, as well as the single worst tsunami in history. Indonesia was the worst affected area, with most death toll estimates at around 170,000. Banda Aceh was the closest major city to the earthquake's epicenter, and suffered further damage when the tsunami struck shortly afterward. It was the worst hit area out of all the locations hit. *NOTE*An optional tour led by an EWC alum and tsunami survivor.

Nur DJULI International Consultant for Peace Dialogues, DDR & Post-Conflict Peace Management and former Chairman, Aceh Rehabilitation Agency LOCATION: Grand Nanggroe Hotel, Conference Room, Jl. Tgk. Imum Lueng Bata, Banda Aceh 23247 (contact) M. Nur Djuli (mobile) +62-811-6804383 [email protected] On August 15, 2005, in Helsinki, Finland, representatives of the Indonesian government and the Free Aceh Movement (GAM) signed a MoU ending the armed insurgency that had operated at varying levels of intensity in Aceh since 1976. While two failed peace accords (in 200 and 2002) brought little change, important changes occurred in 2003 and 2004. The government’s military offensive took a major toll on GAM and gave rise to battle fatigue among its supporters. Some GAM leaders began to feel that their existing strategy of armed struggle for independence had reached an impasse. Meanwhile, a presidential election in late 2004 handed control of the Indonesian government to ]xyyxÜáÉÇ YxÄÄÉãá{|Ñá President Yudhoyono and Vice President Jusuf Kalla, who were personally committed to negotiations as a means of ending conflict. Early steps toward reopening talks occurred in late 2004 and were accelerated by the impact of the devastating Indian Ocean tsunami of December 26, which caused great loss of life in Aceh and opened the province to a substantial international humanitarian presence. Using the formula that “nothing is agreed until everything is agreed,” former president of Finland and new mediator, Martti Ahtisaari, required the two parties to agree on the broad outlines of a political formula before a ceasefire and related security arrangements would be put into effect. This placed great pressure on them to modify their positions. An agreement became possible after GAM announced in February that it was willing to set aside its goal of independence and accept a solution based on “self-government” for Aceh within the Indonesian state. This historic decision allowed further progress, prompting the government negotiators to make key concessions (notably, allowing local political parties in Aceh). Unlike the previous accords, the MoU includes the outline of a comprehensive peace settlement. It does not deal only with security matters but also sets out in broad terms a new political relationship between Aceh and the Indonesian state (to be embodied in a g{x fÑÜ|Ç YxÄÄÉãá{|Ñá ]xyyxÜáÉÇ ECDG g{x fÑÜ|Çz YxÄÄÉãá{|Ñá ]xyyxÜáÉÇ ECDG g{x fÑÜ|Çz YxÄÄÉãá{|Ñá ]xyyxÜáÉÇ ECDG g{x fÑÜ|Çz g{x fÑÜ|Ç YxÄÄÉãá{|Ñá ]xyyxÜáÉÇ ECDG g{x fÑÜ|Çz YxÄÄÉãá{|Ñá ]xyyxÜáÉÇ ECDG g{x fÑÜ|Çz YxÄÄÉãá{|Ñá ]xyyxÜáÉÇ ECDG g{x fÑÜ|Çz g{x fÑÜ|Ç YxÄÄÉãá{|Ñá ]xyyxÜáÉÇ ECDG g{x fÑÜ|Çz YxÄÄÉãá{|Ñá ]xyyxÜáÉÇ ECDG g{x fÑÜ|Çz YxÄÄÉãá{|Ñá ]xyyxÜáÉÇ ECDG g{x fÑÜ|Çz g{x fÑÜ|Ç YxÄÄÉãá{|Ñá ]xyyxÜáÉÇ ECDG g{x fÑÜ|Çz YxÄÄÉãá{|Ñá ]xyyxÜáÉÇ ECDG g{x fÑÜ|Çz YxÄÄÉãá{|Ñá ]xyyxÜáÉÇ ECDG g{x fÑÜ|Çz

T. Nya Arief No. 219, Banda Aceh 23114 The 2005 Helsinki MoU between the Government of Indonesia (GoI) and the Free Aceh Movement (GAM), included several clauses (under heading 3.2) on ‘reintegration into society’. Under the terms of the MoU reintegration assistance was to be focused on three key groups: GAM ex-combatants and supporters, amnestied political prisoners and civilians affected by the conflict, termed ‘victims of the conflict’. A national reintegration fund, established by the central government but managed by the provincial government of Aceh, was mandated to cover economic facilitation, employment, allocation of suitable farming land and social security benefits for incapacitated individuals. In the MoU the GoI also committed itself to funding the rehabilitation of property damaged and destroyed in the conflict. Central government funding allocated for reintegration totaled approximately €68 million. The Aceh Party (PA) is a regional political party in Indonesia, whose leaders were senior figures in the GAM movement. The chairman of Aceh Party is, for example, the former commander of GAM's military wing.

13:00 – 14:30 Luncheon Discussion: Party Pluralism and the 2014 Elections Munawar Liza ZAINAL Spokesman, Advisory Board, Aceh National Party and former Mayor of Sabang LOCATION: RM Asam Keueng, Jl. Soekarno Hatta, Banda Aceh While the establishment of the local parties allows the people of Aceh to channel their political aspirations through local and national parties, the Aceh Party (PA) is the only local party to enjoy significant success. During the 2009 election, PA successfully secured 33 of 69 seats in the Aceh Provincial Parliament. Only one other local political party, Partai Daulat Aceh, was able to win a seat, while the remaining 35 seats were won by national parties. As a number of former GAM rebels have come to occupy prestigious and strategic political and social positions and won many lucrative ]xyyxÜáÉÇ YxÄÄÉãá{|Ñá contracts during the post-conflict reconstruction process, this new emerging circle of power has caused concern within the region. The Aceh National Party (PNA) was also founded by former members of the now-defunct GAM and those involved with either the Aceh Party or the Aceh Transitional Committee who were ejected by the Aceh Party for aligning with former Governor Irwandi Yusuf in his failed re-election bid in 2012. The PNA’s goal is to challenge the Aceh Party’s stranglehold on the local legislatures in the 2014 election. Session will cover the rise of other local opposition parties, including PNA, as well as the Aceh Party’s dominate role in local politics and the impact of such dominance on Aceh’s democratic transition from the perspective of an opposition leader.

But due to the controversy over how to redress crimes against victims of the anti-communist massacres, the national TRC has yet to be formed. Nevertheless, the Aceh legislative council decided to forge ahead and has now drafted a bylaw to establish an Aceh TRC, which would begin work in early 2014. According to the draft bylaw, the Aceh TRC will be a commission with representatives of the victims, women, academics and ulema. Members of the military (TNI) and former GAM rebels, as armed parties to the conflict, will be excluded. The commission will hold public hearings in areas where the conflict was fiercest. It will then compile a public record including incidents of destruction of property and traumatic suffering, and seek to create an accurate and objective record of the history of the Aceh conflict. In consultation with representatives from the government, victims and the community, the Aceh TRC would then establish a reconciliation process. The draft local law proposes that the central government compensate victims for material losses. In cases where there is adequate evidence, the Aceh TRC will have the authority to bring the perpetrators to court. As the regulation is only valid in Aceh, the commission will not be authorized to bring perpetrators outside of Aceh to court. Session will include a brief overview of each group’s/individual’s efforts to establish a Truth and Reconciliation Commission; the TRC’s expected role; limits to its authority; and what advocates hope the TRC will accomplish in terms of redressing past injustices and furthering Aceh’s democratic transition. *NOTE*Session jointly in English/interpreted.

T.Nyak Arief No. 221-Banda Aceh Upon the enactment of the Special Autonomy Law in 2001, Aceh’s provincial legislature enacted a series of qanuns (local laws) governing the implementation of Sharia. Five qanuns enacted between 2002 and 2004 contained criminal penalties for violations of Sharia: Qanun 11/2002 on "belief, ritual, and promoting Islam," which contains the Islamic attire requirement; Qanun 12/2003 prohibiting the consumption and sale of alcohol; Qanun 13/2003 prohibiting gambling; Qanun 14 /2003 prohibiting "seclusion"; and Qanun 7/2004 on the payment of Islamic alms. Responsibility for enforcement of the qanuns rests both with the National Police and with a special Sharia police force unique to Aceh, known as the Wilayatul Hisbah (Sharia Authority). All of the qanuns provide for penalties including fines, imprisonment, and caning, the latter a punishment unknown in most parts of Indonesia. In September 2009, two new qanuns to expand the existing criminal Sharia framework in Aceh were adopted. One bill, the Qanun on Criminal Procedure creates an entirely new procedural code for the enforcement of Sharia by police, prosecutors, and courts in Aceh. The other bill, the Qanun on Criminal Law, reiterated the existing criminal sharia prohibitions, at times enhancing their penalties, and a host of new criminal offenses, including ikhtilat (intimacy or mixing), zina (adultery, defined as willing intercourse by unmarried people), sexual harassment, rape, and homosexual conduct. Aceh is the only province in Indonesia explicitly authorized by national law to adopt laws derived from Islam and many of the qanuns have raised concern among human rights watchers. Session will include an overview of the adoption of local laws governing the implementation of Sharia in Aceh; to whom it applies; the enforcement mechanisms; and how those laws may or may not impinge on individual rights. *NOTE*Session in English and included an unplanned visit to the Sharia Court to meet briefly with a justice.

Teuku Nyak Arief, Banda Aceh Indonesia has introduced direct elections for president, national and sub-national parliaments, and local government executives. While all of these elections have been successful from a number of perspectives—e.g. high voter turnouts, low levels of violence and the peaceful transfer of power, they have also been marred by serious shortcomings in electoral governance. During parliamentary and presidential elections in 2009 and local executive elections in 2010 problems appeared at every stage of the election process from voter registration through to vote counting. Millions of eligible voters were found to be omitted from electoral rolls while thousands of ineligible voters were included in the lists. The 2010 presidential elections resulted in 722 petitions to Indonesia’s Constitutional Court and local executive elections in 244 regions generated 215 disputes over elections results to be heard by the Constitutional Court as well as 1,636 reports of administrative violations implicating election officials. The persistence of such problems in Indonesia’s elections undermines the perceived fairness and legitimacy of the electoral process and efforts to consolidate democracy. The primary responsibilities of the Independent Electoral Commission of Aceh (KIP Aceh) are to: a) design the program, budget, and schedule of elections; b) prepare and establish technical guidelines for each stage of the ]xyyxÜáÉÇ YxÄÄÉãá{|Ñá election; c) coordinate, implement, and control all stages of implementation; d) update the voters’ data based on population data and finalizing the voter’s register; e) confirm and announce results of the count; f) prepare an official report on the vote count; g) confirm and announce the result of the election; and h) follow-up on reported irregularities.

In May 2010, the party was declared illegal and ordered to be disbanded by the junta after refusing to register for the elections slated for November 2010. The NLD registered as a political party in 2011 and in the 2012 by-elections, won 43 of the 44 parliamentary seats it had contested. If that success were replicated in the 2015 elections, the NLD would sweep the next parliament. Founded in 2013 by 32 year old, Mr. Nay Chi WIN, the research unit of the NLD produces a weekly media-monitoring report; researches policy issues such as climate change and the rule of law; and trains party members in office management, public relations and grooming. Session will provide an assessment of the state of the NLD as a political party, including: challenges the party now faces as a part of Myanmar’s governing structure; criticisms that the NLD is dominated by an “old guard of leaders” and specific efforts to build capacity and inclusivity within the party; and the NLD’s hopes for the 2015 elections. *NOTE*Session in English.

Any change in the Constitution, however, requires approval from more than 75 percent of the members of Parliament of which 25 percent of the seats are reserved for unelected members of the military. While the Constitution contains numerous provisions that opponents decry as undemocratic, the change debate has centered around Article 59(f), which bars anyone whose spouse or children are overseas citizens from leading the country— a clause g{x fÑÜ|Ç YxÄÄÉãá{|Ñá ]xyyxÜáÉÇ ECDG g{x fÑÜ|Çz YxÄÄÉãá{|Ñá ]xyyxÜáÉÇ ECDG g{x fÑÜ|Çz YxÄÄÉãá{|Ñá ]xyyxÜáÉÇ ECDG g{x fÑÜ|Çz g{x fÑÜ|Ç YxÄÄÉãá{|Ñá ]xyyxÜáÉÇ ECDG g{x fÑÜ|Çz YxÄÄÉãá{|Ñá ]xyyxÜáÉÇ ECDG g{x fÑÜ|Çz YxÄÄÉãá{|Ñá ]xyyxÜáÉÇ ECDG g{x fÑÜ|Çz g{x fÑÜ|Ç YxÄÄÉãá{|Ñá ]xyyxÜáÉÇ ECDG g{x fÑÜ|Çz YxÄÄÉãá{|Ñá ]xyyxÜáÉÇ ECDG g{x fÑÜ|Çz YxÄÄÉãá{|Ñá ]xyyxÜáÉÇ ECDG g{x fÑÜ|Çz g{x fÑÜ|Ç YxÄÄÉãá{|Ñá ]xyyxÜáÉÇ ECDG g{x fÑÜ|Çz YxÄÄÉãá{|Ñá ]xyyxÜáÉÇ ECDG g{x fÑÜ|Çz YxÄÄÉãá{|Ñá ]xyyxÜáÉÇ ECDG g{x fÑÜ|Çz

Priority has been given to legislating democratic rights and economic reforms. One of the first acts of the lower house under the new government was to pass an opposition motion, with the support of the military bloc, calling on the president to grant amnesty to political prisoners. Key pieces of legislation that have been adopted include: 1) the “Law Amending the Political Parties Registration Law”, enacted on 4 November 2011, which facilitated the NLD’s return to the formal political process; 2) the “Law Relating to Peaceful Gathering and Peaceful Procession”, signed on 2 December 2011, not yet in force pending the adoption of implementing regulations. It puts in place a degree of freedom of assembly in a context where previously there had been none. Demonstrations require advance permission from the police, and holding of unauthorized demonstrations at-tracts criminal penalties. These restrictions have drawn some criticism from human rights groups; 3) the “Labor Organization Law”, brought into force on 9 March 2012. It provides the right to strike and to form independent trades unions and employers’ organizations, putting in place international-standard freedom of association. Previously, all independent trades unions were banned. A Labor Dispute Settlement Bill was also approved by the legislature on 21 March; and 4) several other amendments to commercial and tax laws have also been adopted by the legislatures, as have bills relating to land management

Parliament seems to be taking its role as a check-and-balance on the executive seriously. Ministers are frequently questioned; bills submitted by the executive are subject to scrutiny and considerable amendment; and changes recommended by the president to bills he returns unsigned are not always adopted. With the NLD’s arrival in parliament in April 2012, Shwe Mann quickly formed a productive working relationship with Aung San Suu Kyi and assigned her to chair the new Committee for Rule of Law and Stability. Session will cover parliamentary oversight and the current speaker’s activist role in checking the executive as well as the role of the constitutional reform commission and where possible constitutional amendments are in the legislative process. Session will include a brief meet and greet with a handful of USDP Parliamentarians, a 20min tour of Pyidaungsu Hlattaw and 30min of observing Parliament in-session. *NOTE*Meet & greet in English.
