Institution Profile Security Sector Reform in Indonesia An Effort to Guarantee the Security of Citizens Suripto, SH Deputy Chairperson, Commission III of the Indonesian Parliament (DPR-RI) and Chairperson, Founders Board, Indonesian Institute for Strategic and Defence Studies (LESPERSSI) The reform movement that brought an end to the authoritarian and centralised system of government of the Soeharto regime in 1998 soon rolled out a number of reform agendas in a variety of fields including security sector reform, with the objective of improving the system of government to make it more transparent, accountable, and democratic. The expected impact of the security sector reform agenda is a heightened level of community wellbeing, accompanied by a guarantee of personal security for each and every citizen. This being the case, security sector reform should encompass a number of stake holders, not only those directly involved in operational matters with responsibility for defense and security, such as police and military institutions, but also other institutions at the executive level as the parties with authority for planning policy for use of military force, and at the legislative level as a form of democratic civilian control. In addition, the print and electronic media and non-governmental organisations performing democratic, non-governmental, civilian control functions must also be involved, mindful of the vital roles both played in initiating the course of security sector reform, if it is to remain consistent with the ideal of human security. Then, hopefully all parties associated with the security sector can cooperate sinergistically to carry out security sector reform, having learned from historical experience of the security sector in the past, when defence and security actors deviated significantly from their roles. Security sector reform has been underway in Indonesia for over eight years but there are many unresolved problems in military, police and intelligence reform. There are a number of factors causing security sector reform in Indonesia to remain in need of attention, among them the continuing weakness of legal and institutional frameworks for civilian control of the security sector and the enduring strength of the old paradigm that infects the mindset of actors in the security sector, i.e., the view that still sees security institutions as political actors as was customary under the New Order regime. The old paradigm, cultivated for more than thirty years, has virtually crystalised into a culture that is difficult to change. So, too, close ties between vested business interests and actors in the security sector are impediments, causing security sector reform to progress in fits and starts, making it difficult for institutions responsible for the security sector to behave professionally. This Indonesian Security Sector Reform Almanac 2007 will discuss a number of issues in security sector reform in Indonesia that currently remain in need of attention. Reform of the institution of the Indonesian Armed Forces (TNI) is not yet comprehensive, restructuring of military business has not been finalised and reform of the TNI Territorial Command structure remains a topic of heated debate on the performance and professionalism of the TNI. In its role and responsibility as political representative of the Indonesian community, the Indonesian Parliament (DPR), the institution with legislative and control functions over the defence and security sector, is perceived to move quite sluggishly. On the other hand the Department of Defence (DoD), the civilian institution with authority and responsibility for determining policy for national defence, has not exerted its supremacy as the institution to which military authorities are subordinate. In that context, relations between DoD and TNI Headquarters are also an integral element that cannot escape discussion in this volume. The structure of the relationship between these two institutions will define the extent to which the ideals of reform of Indonesia's security sector can be realised. Similarly, issues concerning state intelligence institutions and their reform are also a separate sub-theme of this book. The Indonesian National Police (POLRI), Indonesia's principal domestic security authority, is also discussed from various perspectives, i.e., institutional reform of POLRI, the Mobile Brigade (Brimob) as a form of paramilitary policing, and the Special Anti-Terrorism Detachment 88 (Densus 88). With the dynamic evolution of problems related to national boundaries and issues of sovereignty, border violations and management of national borders, the need for autonomous border guard troops is seen to be a critical response to this dynamic, rendering this a topic of interest to this discussion. The roles of the media and non-government organisations also influence the discussion in this volume as the fifth pillar of democracy, who act as watch dogs over the success of security sector reform in Indonesia. In general, this book is divided into two sections: the first section will address the institutional actors in security sector reform in Indonesia, while the second section will address the dynamics of developing issues in security sector reform in Indonesia. In closing, the Indonesian Institute for Strategic and Defence Studies (LESPERSSI) wishes to convey its deepest gratitude to the Geneva Centre for the Democratic Control of Armed Forces

  • Tensions Among Indonesia's Security Forces Underlying the May 2019
    ISSUE: 2019 No. 61 ISSN 2335-6677 RESEARCHERS AT ISEAS – YUSOF ISHAK INSTITUTE ANALYSE CURRENT EVENTS Singapore | 13 August 2019 Tensions Among Indonesia’s Security Forces Underlying the May 2019 Riots in Jakarta Made Supriatma* EXECUTIVE SUMMARY • On May 21-22, riots broke out in Jakarta after the official results of the 2019 election were announced. 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.

  • The Growing Militarization of Counterterrorism in Southeast Asia
    Philippine flag flown in war torn Marawi. (iStock) 138 | FEATURES PRISM 7, NO. 4 Sending in the Cavalry The Growing Militarization of Counterterrorism in Southeast Asia By See Seng Tan here is a growing consensus among security analysts that the Battle of Marawi in the Philippines, which lasted from May to October 2017, constitutes a watershed moment in the evolution of the ter- T rorist threat in Southeast Asia. Pro–Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) militants threatened to turn Marawi into “the Mosul of Southeast Asia,” with their astounding ability to operate large groups capable of controlling territory and exposing the inadequacy of the region’s security services.1 Although member countries of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) had pondered the question of possible participation by their armed forces in counterterrorism well before the Battle, it is undeniable that Marawi has become the catalyst behind the regional drive to militarize counterterrorism efforts in Southeast Asia.2 Cooperative frameworks furnished by ASEAN have since taken on added significance, especially the defense-oriented arrangements that bring together the defense establishments and armed forces of the ASEAN countries as well as those of external powers including China, India, Japan, and the United States. The growing militarization of counterterrorism efforts will neither be easy nor straightforward, given long- standing regional sensitivities and the potentially diversive ramifications that excessive securitization could have for democratic life within ASEAN countries. Battle of Marawi: Game Changer? At their retreat in early February, the defense ministers of the 10 ASEAN member countries identified terrorism as the single biggest threat to their region, even as they recognized a number of other regional security challenges including the South China Sea and North Korea.

Despite this encouraging rejuvenation of the ranks, the drive to professionalise the country’s military remains fragile. Commentary THE RECENT appointment of a new Commander-in-Chief for the Indonesian National Defence Forces (TNI) Admiral Agus Suhartono has been typically followed by a major reshuffle of the other ranks. From 17 November 2009 up to 18 October 2010, there were a total of 17 waves of personnel changes. These latest changes, however, not only placed officers from the Military Academy classes of 1976 to 1978 in charge of the TNI’s high command; they also highlighted the rapid promotion of officers from the 1980 to 1982 classes. Professionalising the Military The rapid rise of the 1980s generation officers is to overcome the shortage of high-ranking military officers to occupy top positions in TNI Headquarters and several civilian ministries.
