  • President's Report
    PRESIDENT’S REPORT ON PROGRAMS AND ACTIVITIES NOVEMBER 2014 - NOVEMBER 2015 The United States – Indonesia Society November Board Meeting November 14, 2015 Dear USINDO Trustees and Advisors, As we approach 2016, we appear to be on the cusp of greater opportunities for USINDO to contribute to our mission of strengthening bilateral relations than any time in the last two decades. Recognizing our role as the sole NGO working exclusively on fostering a deep-rooted US-Indonesia bilateral relationship, and our bi-national and impartial character, the two governments now appear interested in working in cooperation with USINDO in both countries to facilitate widespread civil society participation in mutually agreed aspects of the new U.S. Indonesia Strategic Partnership. Thus, rather than work primarily in a parallel track with governments, we now may be able, along with other suitable groups, to work interactively with governments so that together we can bring about the best mutually reinforcing and coordinated results. It is too soon to say what specific forms this may take, but there is an exciting prospect for USINDO to play an even more effective role. As concerns the present, USINDO finishes 2015 having produced the cutting-edge information and education programs promoting U.S.-Indonesia understanding you expect of us. They are described in the following report. Key events included our December Conference on the Jokowi Administration, our September Gala Dinner with Foreign Minister Marsudi, and our October co-sponsored dinner honoring President Jokowi. Our renowned and frequent Open Forums in both countries continued to provide our audiences high quality information about policies and issues in each country.

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.

  • Politics in Indonesia: Resilient Elections, Defective Democracy
    Politics in Indonesia: Resilient Ben Bland elections, defective democracy April 2019 POLITICS IN INDONESIA: RESILIENT ELECTIONS, DEFECTIVE DEMOCRACY The Lowy Institute is an independent policy think tank. Its mandate ranges across all the dimensions of international policy debate in Australia — economic, political and strategic — and it is not limited to a particular geographic region. Its two core tasks are to: • produce distinctive research and fresh policy options for Australia’s international policy and to contribute to the wider international debate • promote discussion of Australia’s role in the world by providing an accessible and high-quality forum for discussion of Australian international relations through debates, seminars, lectures, dialogues and conferences. Lowy Institute Analyses are short papers analysing recent international trends and events and their policy implications. The views expressed in this paper are entirely the author’s own and not those of the Lowy Institute. POLITICS IN INDONESIA: RESILIENT ELECTIONS, DEFECTIVE DEMOCRACY EXECUTIVE SUMMARY On the eve of historic elections, a conundrum lies at the heart of Indonesian politics. Successive governments have built one of the most important foundations of a successful democracy: free, fair, and peaceful elections. However, while its electoral procedures are robust, Indonesian democracy is increasingly defective in other areas. President Joko Widodo, who is the favourite to be elected again in April, rose to power thanks to the competitive nature of Indonesian elections. Yet, he has proven to be a poor guardian of democracy. Jokowi, as he is known, has sought compromises with corrupt politicians and intolerant religious leaders, and surrounded himself with former generals with little commitment to democratic principles.

    HARGA BBM NAIK PRABOWO SUBIANTO BELLA SAPHIRA Rakyat Jadi Kita Seperti Harus Pandai Sengsara Menumpang di Bawa Diri Negeri Sendiri GEMA UTAMA>>04 INDONESIA >>08 FIGUR >>13 GEMA TERBIT 16 HALAMAN/EDISI 26/TAHUN III/JUNI 2013 Indonesiawww.partaigerindra.or.id Raya GELORA IRONI KENAIKAN HARGA BBM ANGGARAN 9.32 triliun rupiah untuk alokasi BLSM (bantuan langsung sementara masyarakat) disetujui DPR. Harga BBM mengalami kenaikan. Kebijakan kenaikan harga BBM memang hak pemerintah, tapi jelas menambah kesengsaraan rakyat. Harga-harga kebutuhan pokok meroket, apalagi menjelang Ramadhan dan Idul Fitri. Anehnya, alokasi anggaran untuk subsidi BBM justru meningkat. Mengapa harga BBM naik tapi subsidi BBM juga naik? Inilah anomali logika yang mencolok. Pertama, harga premium naik Rp 2.000 dan solar Rp. 1.000, tetapi subsidi BBM juga naik dari Rp. 194 trilyun menjadi Rp. 210 trilyun. Harusnya, ketika harga BBM naik alokasi subsidi BBM turun. Kedua, di RAPBN-P pendapatan negara turun dan alokasi belanja naik. Akibatnya terjadi defisit keseimbangan primer dan defisit total yang melebar dan memaksa menambah utang. Pendapatan pajak turun Rp 53.6 trilyun, sedangkan belanja naik Rp 39 trilyun, dan belanja lain-lain naik Rp. 53.6 trilyiun. Akibatnya defisit melebar dari Rp. 153.3 trilyun menjadi Rp 233.5 trilyun. Keanehan lain dalam postur RAPBN-P adalah pada anggaran perubahan Kementerian Kelautan dan Perikanan tahun 2013. F Alokasi naik menjadi Rp. 6,598 trilyun dari Rp. 5,944 trilyun OTO M U di tahun 2012.
