Q & A

What is the main topic of the speaker's thesis research?

The speaker's thesis research focuses on the communication strategy of Commission 1 of the Indonesian House of Representatives in involving public participation in the revision of the Broadcasting Law through Public Hearings (RDPU).

Why is this research important?

This research addresses a gap between the communication strategies of legislative institutions and the public's expectations regarding involvement in policy discussions, particularly in lawmaking processes such as the Broadcasting Law revision.

What were the key motivations behind this research?

The research is motivated by concerns that Commission 1 of the Indonesian House of Representatives does not provide sufficient opportunities for public participation, which has led to criticism and dissatisfaction among the public.

What significant event in May 2024 highlighted the issue of public participation in the revision of the Broadcasting Law?

In May 2024, the revision of the Broadcasting Law sparked controversy when a draft revision was circulated, which many perceived as threatening freedom of speech, leading to suspicions that the public was not adequately involved in the process.

What is the key method used by Commission 1 to involve public participation?

Commission 1 uses Public Hearings (RDPU) as the primary method for involving public participation in policy discussions, including the revision of the Broadcasting Law.

What theory is used in the research to analyze public participation?

The research uses Sherry Arnstein's 'Ladder of Participation' theory, which classifies participation based on the level of power that society holds in influencing policy decisions.

What data collection methods were employed in the research?

The data collection methods include observation, interviews, literature studies, and documentation studies.

What is the process involved in planning an RDPU?

The RDPU planning process begins with the inclusion of the Broadcasting Law revision in the national legislative program, followed by the formation of a working team. Public input is gathered through socialization visits and public hearings, and then processed for internal evaluation before selecting which groups will participate in the RDPU.

How is the RDPU process implemented?

The RDPU process involves discussions between the revision team (Party A) and the public (Party B), where input is exchanged until mutual understanding is achieved. However, the discussions do not result in binding decisions but serve to inform the next legislative step.

What were the main findings and conclusions of the research?

The research concluded that Commission 1 optimizes the RDPU to create an inclusive participation forum. While public involvement has been promoted, transparency in the final legislative drafting process remains inadequate, and improvements are needed in both transparency and the quality of public participation.
