In strategic intelligence and national securities perspective, the contemporary politics development which impact to create non-military threat are: First, the draft bill of elections discussion.
During the period of discussion of Election Bill which will be used as legal umbrella of electoral election 2018, legislative election 2018 and 2019 Presidential election which have been completed, being admited or not, and unconsciously, this nation has committed collegial collective mistake in determination of political infrastructure that is by submitting discussion of bill election to DPR-RI. Indeed, the House of Representatives has legislative duties, but it should not apply to the problems of political parties and elections, because there will be many vested and conflict interest among Political Parties and politicians of Senayan, proved that the Election Bill is deadlocked, especially in parliamentary threshold, presidential threshold and sensitive issues others.
The government's suggestion that the 20% presidential threshold requirement is good to enforce, because if there is no such requirement or a smaller percentage then it is estimated that there will be many un-qualified president candidates emerging from the alliance or alliances of political parties and "un-believeable political party" , This is a non-military threat that is very worrying.
In the future, the discussion on the Election Bill should be conducted by the Government, General Election Commission, Bawaslu and involving the selected community or experts so that the resulting election law can last and create an "equal battle field" among the electoral contestants.
Second, the KPK inquary by the DPR-RI. The KPK inquary rights passed by the House of Representatives is the constitutional right of parliament, but this political maneuver is judged by various circles to be full of "transactional politics and hidden agenda" since the right is revoked when KPK will dismantle the mega corruption scandal of e-ID card. A growing public opinion shows support and confidence in the KPK is getting stronger, on the contrary cynicism and blasphemy against the parliament is widespread.
These contemporary and crucial political issues have the potential to pose a non-military threat of weakening or even loss of public confidence in the intention of the government to eradicate corruption, whereas corruption has been declared as extra ordinary crimes like terrorists, because they are equally destructive to the nation in the future.
Failure to eliminate the widespread of corruption is a sensitive political issue that has the potential to pose other non-military threat such as impeachment and social mobilization against the government.
Nevertheless, the public, the government and the KPK also should not miss the existence of some special committee findings that should be observed together.
Findings of the KPK Special Committee of the House of Representatives (22 August 2017) there are 11 findings of alleged violations committed by the Corruption Eradication Commission in dealing with various corruption cases, namely: 1) from the institutional aspect, the KPK makes itself as a superbody institution that is not ready and unwilling to be criticized and supervised, Using media opinion to suppress the critics 2) KPK with independent arguments, leading to freedom or escape from the holders of branches of state power potentially abuse of power 3) KPK should have gained strict and effective supervision from the House. 4) KPK in carrying out their main job has not adhered to the principle of legal certainty, transparency, accountability as regulated in Article 5 of the Corruption Eradication Commission Law 5) in carrying out coordination functions, KPK tends to run independently without considering the existence of other state institutions.
KPK put forward the practice of prosecution through opinion news rather than prevention policy. 6) in the civic function, the KPK is more likely to handle itself without co-ordination rather than trying to encourage, motivate and direct the prosecutor's and police departments. 7) in the investigation, investigation and prosecution functions, KPK is not guided by the KUHAP and ignores human rights. 8) related to human resources apparatus, KPK always argue independently, formulate and organize human resources that are different from other state apparatus. 9) related to budget usage, based on BPK audit many things that can not be accounted for. 10) on a number of cases handled, the special committee gave full support to continue to run in accordance with the rules of positive law and uphold human rights. 11) against a number of cases related to elements of leadership, the case of Novel Baswedan, the death of Johannes Marliem, Commission III of the House of Representatives may immediately invite the Commission and Police to carry out supervisory functions.
Third, The goverment regulation in lieu of law No. 2 Year 2017 About Substitute Law No. 17 Year 2013 on CSOs. The birth of The goverment regulation in lieu of law No. 2 Year 2017 was "the brilliant moves" by the Indonesian government in deterring and detecting the emergence of non-military threats in Indonesia, namely the politicization of race-tribe-religious nuances (SARA) issues and the development of identity politics; The threat of the ideology of the Pancasila state and the other pillars of the nation; Radicalism; and the emergence of the seeds of the eradication of pluralism and multiculturalism in Indonesia, including the military threat of separatism.
Therefore, all national stakeholders must close the ranks, including the parliamentary factions to be able to accept the The goverment regulation in lieu of law as a law and the judiciary to ignore the legal efforts to reject The goverment regulation in lieu of law No. 2 Year 2017 (law efforts to deny the government in lieu Of law No. 2/2017) conducted by various groups in various ways.
