But few have been as turbulent as Indonesia. The history of Indonesia’s land and natural resources is tied to the swings in the country’s political regime. Following intense political instability since independence, President Sukarno’s ‘Guided Democracy’ system attempted to establish a nationalist approach to protect the young nation from domination by Western countries. With the Basic Agrarian Law (BAL) 1960, foreign ownership of land was disallowed. But this too failed to achieve stability or economic growth. In 1966, General Suharto successfully staged a military coup. Under his presidency, Indonesia experienced the “New Order”. A key aspect of this regime was trade and industrial expansion, which allowed an economic growth of seven to eight percent each year. Changes were made to foreign and domestic investment laws to facilitate growth. The New Order removed most controls on private investments. By ending government subsidies and preferential access to funds for state owned banks and state owned enterprises it curtailed their activities. A new Foreign Investment Law of 19671 opened the country to Foreign Direct Investments (FDI) (Wie 2006). Foreign loans through the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and World Bank were made easily accessible (Awang 2006). The Asian economic crisis of 1997 brought Indonesia’s economy to a collapse and this unleashed political protests against the New Order. Civil society demanded

AUSTRALIA JAVA Foreword What is commonly referred to as the Indonesian coup is more properly called "The 30 September Movement," the name the conspirators themselves gave their movement. In this paper, the term "Indonesian coup" is used inter- changeably with "The 30 September Movement ," mainly for the sake of variety. It is technically correct to refer to the events in lndonesia as a "coup" in the literal sense of the word, meaning "a sudden, forceful stroke in politics." To the extent that the word has been accepted in common usage to mean "the sudden and forcible overthrow - of the government ," however, it may be misleading.

  • The Existence of the State Minister in the Government System After the Amendment to the 1945 Constitution
    IOSR Journal Of Humanities And Social Science (IOSR-JHSS) Volume 25, Issue 5, Series. 1 (May. 2020) 51-78 e-ISSN: 2279-0837, p-ISSN: 2279-0845. www.iosrjournals.org The Existence of the State Minister in the Government System after the Amendment to the 1945 Constitution ParbuntianSinaga Doctor of Law, UniversitasKrisnadwipayana Jakarta Po Box 7774 Jat Cm Jakarta 13077, Indonesia Abstract: Constitutionally, the existence of ministers called cabinet or council of ministers in a presidential government system is an inseparable part of the executive power held by the President. The 1945 Constitution after the amendment, that the presence of state ministers as constitutional organs is part of the power of the President in running the government. This study aims to provide ideas about separate arrangements between state ministries placed separately in Chapter V Article 17 to Chapter III of the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia concerning the authority of the state government or the power of the President, and also regarding the formation, amendment and dissolution of the ministries regulated in legislation. This study uses a normative juridical research approach. The results of the study show that the Minister of State is the President's assistant who is appointed and dismissed to be in charge of certain affairs in the government, which actually runs the government, and is responsible to the President. The governmental affairs referred to are regulated in Law No. 39 of 2008 concerning the State Ministry, consisting of: government affairs whose nomenclature is mentioned in the 1945 NRI Constitution, government affairs whose scope is mentioned in the 1945 NRI Constitution, and government affairs in the context of sharpening, coordinating, and synchronizing government programs.

  • Case Study of the CAO's Approach to the PT Weda Nickel Mine Complaint
    NON-JUDICIAL REDRESS MECHANISMS REPORT SERIES 10 Case Study of the CAO’s Approach to the PT Weda Nickel Mine Complai nt Barriers to Mediation in a Climate of Fear Dr Shelley Marshall MonaSh univerSity Kate taylor inDepenDent reSearcher Dr Samantha Balaton-chrimes DeaKin univerSity ­About­this­report­series this report is part of a series produced by the non-Judicial human rights redress Mechanisms project, which draws on the findings of five years of research. the findings are based on over 587 interviews, with 1,100 individuals, across the countries and case studies covered by the research. non- judicial redress mechanisms are mandated to receive complaints and mediate grievances, but are not empowered to produce legally binding adjudications. the focus of the project is on analysing the effectiveness of these mechanisms in responding to alleged human rights violations associated with transnational business activity. the series presents lessons and recommendations regarding ways that: • non-judicial mechanisms can provide redress and justice to vulnerable communities and workers • non-government organisations and worker representatives can more effectively utilise the mechanisms to provide support for and represent vulnerable communities and workers • redress mechanisms can contribute to long-term and sustainable respect and remedy of human rights by businesses throughout their operations, supply chains and other business re - lationships. the non-Judicial human rights redress Mechanisms project is an academic research collaboration between the university of Melbourne, Monash university, the university of newcastle, rMit university, Deakin university and the university of essex. the project was funded by the australian research council with support provided by a number of non-government organisations, including core coalition uK, homeWorkers Worldwide, oxfam australia and actionaid australia.
