What is the difference between 'Bela Negara' and the 'Reserve Component' (Komponen Cadangan)?

'Bela Negara' is a program aimed at raising national awareness and patriotism among civilians, emphasizing nationalism and love for the country without military training. In contrast, the 'Reserve Component' involves voluntary civilian participation in military training to become part of a defense reserve force that can be mobilized during emergencies.

Who is eligible to be part of the civilian defense reserve component?

The military training for the reserve component lasts for three months. It includes basic military training, such as weapon handling and tactical skills, preparing civilians to serve as military reserves in times of national emergencies.

What happens to reserve component members when they are not mobilized?

When not mobilized, reserve component members return to civilian status. They remain in reserve and can be called upon by the president, with approval from the DPR (People's Representative Council), in case of national emergencies.

Is participation in the reserve component mandatory for Indonesian citizens?

No, participation in the reserve component is voluntary, unlike in some countries with mandatory conscription (e.g., South Korea). Civilians can choose to enlist and undergo military training if they meet the required criteria.

🛡️ Mobilization of Civilians for National Defense in Indonesia

This paragraph discusses Indonesia's territorial sovereignty and the role of civilians alongside military personnel (army, navy, air force) during national emergencies. It mentions the 2021 Government Regulation No. 3, which allows the president to mobilize civilians aged 18 to 35 as part of the defense reserve component during military emergencies or war. Indonesia aims to recruit 25,000 civilians, offering them three months of military training. The paragraph compares Indonesia's potential reserve forces with neighboring countries, like Singapore (2.6 million) and Malaysia (12.5 million), highlighting Indonesia's massive potential of 186 million. The initiative became public in 2019 when Defense Minister Prabowo outlined the strategy to the DPR Commission 1, stressing the inclusion of the educated class in the reserve component.

Supporting components include human resources like police, experts, and trained groups such as security personnel and skilled workers. It also includes natural and man-made resources like private and government ports. The 'Komcad' focuses on recruiting and training civilian volunteers to assist the primary military force (TNI). Unlike mandatory military service in countries like Singapore, Indonesia's reserve service is voluntary. Recruits undergo basic military training for three months and only serve during emergencies such as war or natural disasters.

Jelaskan jelaskan secara rinci pertama

saya harus mengkoreksi apa yang

disampaikan oleh narator KompasTV Tadi

ia pertama kali di Diva masih dipakai

tadi ya betul oke ada perbedaan antara

bela negara dengan komcad jadi nah ini

kan basisnya adalah undang-undang nomor

23 tahun 2019 tentang pengolahan sumber

daya negara untuk pertahanan negara nah

Pengolahan Sumber Daya nasional tersebut

terdiri dari kalau kita baca

undang-undangnya termasuk nanti ketika

kita baca

cek nomor tiga tahun 2021 itu itu

Menjelaskan tiga hal tiga program

tersebut begitu program pertama itu

adalah program bela negara atau disebut

dengan Pro penyelenggaraan kesadaran

bela negara atau pkbn kemudian kedua

program kedua itu adalah komponen

pendukung kemudian yang ketiga itu

adalah program komponen cadangan jadi

bela negara misalnya tadi kritik atau

pengamatnya ini menyebutkan bahwasanya

bela negara itu sangat military stick

keliru karena bela negara justru adalah

program yang membangun kesadaran warga

negara tentang kecintaan terhadap negara

kemudian nasionalisme dan sebagainya

tidak ada program teh militerisme di

bela negara baik jadi itu

program-program ada tiga programnya

yang masa Iman tanyakan tadi itu adalah

komcad itu berbeda komponen cadangan

jadi teh mulai dari sini program Kemhan

itu yang terkait dengan bela negara yang

sesuai dengan undang-undang nomor 23 dan

PP nomor tiga tahun 2021 itu bela negara

ya program yang sama ini sudah berjalan

Jadi untuk Milenia bisa membangun

kesadaran tentang apa ha kesadaran er

merawat NKRI nasionalisme pada abis Jadi

kalau zaman kita dulu mungkin kewiraan

atau Pemkab misalnya seperti pengenalan

sistem kamrata begitu ya kolektor

sebutan Gland terbelakang profesi mereka

masing-masing kita bisa terus

memaksimalkan kontribusi Patriotisme dan

nasionalisme itu pertama itu bela negara

kesadaran bela negara kemudian kedua

komponen pendukung di undang-undang ini

itu juga tadi pertama itu adalah

komponen cadangan sumber daya manusia

nah sumberdaya manusia salah satunya itu

adalah merebut komponen cadangan yang

kita sebut tadi Jombang cadangan untuk

membantu komponen utama komponen utama

itu adalah TNI dan ini kan di banyak

negara sudah menjadi hal yang kewajaran

yang namanya adalah wajib militer betul

ya dengan Singapura dan beberapa negara

itu disebut wajib militer kalau kita itu

tidak wajib militer nah di kita itu

sukarela di catatan pentingnya sukarela

seperti Mas Iman ingin masuk tentara

misalnya kan ketika masuk tentara Tidak

ada paksaan siapapun yang tertarik dan

memenuhi persyaratan lulus seleksi

tentara ini bedanya ada

ah mereka yang nanti akan tertarik

mendaftar di komponen cadangan itu

sesuai dengan syaratnya tadi salah

satunya sudah disebut kemudian mereka

mendaftar kemudian mereka lulus seleksi

mereka ikut pelatihan militer dasar

selama tiga bulan kemudian dinyatakan

lulus ditetapkan sebagai komponen

cadangan atau bahasa mudahnya tentara

cadangan nah mereka itu hanya akan

bertugas kalau dimobilisasi oleh

pemerintah dalam hal ini presiden as

atas persetujuan dari DPR dimobilisasi

buat apa setelah tentu untuk hal-hal

yang bersifat darurat di droidlady

penggunaannya tak saya bicara soal

perekrutan yang dulu bunda tadi anda

katakan bahwa sukarela bedanya dengan

wajib militer ia wajib kalau wajib

militer maka semua dalam usia tertentu

misalnya wajib ada di Korea Selatan

misalnya di laporan

soalnya itu kemudian diwajibkan tapi

dikit ah nanti tidak diwajibkan tapi

sukarela seperti arena Iya nyantai di

betul usianya nanti 18-35 tahun yang

akan berhenti kenakan sukarelawan ini

undang-undang dan PP salah satu usia

yang diperkenankan mendaftar secara

sukarela itu adalah usia 18 sampai

dengan 35 nanti mereka diseleksi seperti

masuk tentara saja diselingi dengan baik

syarat ayane syarat-syaratnya sudah

dipenuhi secara administrasi misalnya

kemudian cara fisik dan sebagainya

ketika mereka sudah lulus seleksi yang

mereka ikut pelatihan dasar militer

selama tiga bulan nah termasuk

penggunaan senjata api misalnya presiden

lagi itu ya ya

nah tiga bulan setelah mereka dinyatakan

lulus ditetapkan oleh negara sebagai

komponen cadangan helmet Aiman terus

lokal tidak ada kegentingan kedaruratan

ya kedaruratan you perang misalnya

bencana alam besar dan sebagainya

pandemi dan sebagainya mereka itu di

demobilisasi hatinya ditanya kalau masa

Iman masih berusia 20 misalnya kemudian

masa Iman daftar menjadi apa komcad yang

lulus Karena Om tubuh Mitra Iman Amin

Mekar tetapi bisanya masuk gentingnya

peredam itu

cerita si diminta untuk bertugas menjadi

komponen cadangan ketika masa Iman

bertugas menjadi komponen cadangan pasta

iman itu statusnya militer aktif Nah

ketika di demobilisasi sipil dan itu

terikat dengan baik Quran yang adanya

pertanyaannya begini kemudian tentu ini

bicara soal ketika ada darurat kau

darurat maka mereka akan turunkan

menjadi militer aktif yang ada katanya

tadi tapi kemudian ketika tentu kita

berharap tetap ada perdamaian kalau

seandainya memang tidak ada apa-apa maka

mereka adalah orang-orang yang punya

kemampuan militer dan mereka mungkin

menjadi milisi dan bisa saja pada saat

itu misalnya mereka Katakanlah tidak

punya pekerjaan dan sebagainya tentu ini

bisa menjadi ancaman baru Saka segera

kabari nanti ke Bung Daniel dan juga ada

Bung Haris Azhar dari lokataru
