Observer: Acceleration of the Asset Confiscation Bill must be balanced with caution

Public policy observer and Trisakti University Professor Trubus Rahardiansah has urged the Indonesian government to balance the acceleration of the Asset Forfeiture Bill (RUU Perampasan Aset) with careful deliberation. The call for caution comes amid ongoing efforts to expedite the legislative process for the bill, which is intended to strengthen anti-corruption measures.

Rahardiansah emphasizes that while the urgency to pass the bill is recognized, the legislative process must remain meticulous to ensure legal certainty and prevent potential misuse. The focus remains on ensuring that the acceleration of the bill does not compromise the quality of the legal framework or its long-term implementation.
