Liputan6.com, jakarta – The Deputy Chairman of the Legislative Council of DPR Ri (BALEG) from the PKB Faction Ahmad Iman Syukri emphasized that the bill on the usual legal community (MHA) has become a priority agenda of the Law Day, which will comply with PKB in parliament. It is known that the design rules are prepared to protect the indigenous peoples from marginalization, discrimination and criminalization.

“We, as the applicant of the MHA bill, consistently consider the bill on indigenous peoples as one of the priority legislative programs,” Kats Iman during an expert discussion in the context of the preparation of the MHA academic manuscript, which was conducted by the DPR experience in the Baleg room, as indicated in the press statement on Friday (11/7/202).

According to Iman, there are a number of reasons that are the basis for compliance with the bill. Firstly, the foundation of the 1945 Constitution, in particular, article 18B paragraph (2) and paragraph of Article 28i (3), which recognizes the existence of ordinary communities and traditional rights. Secondly, the PKB fraction, which has strong historical and sociological roots with Nahdlatul Ulama (NU),, by its nature, brings the tradition of protecting vulnerable and often marginal groups.

“The long story of NU in the struggle for the rights of small people, including the indigenous peoples and farmers, the brutal, who are often victims of agrarian injustice, are a strong basis for PKB to continue the struggle through the legislation channel,” he explained.

According to a politician from the electoral district of East Java VII, the lack of a specific and strong legal umbrella led to the recognition and protection of the rights of indigenous peoples to be weak. In the end, this often becomes a root of various problems and conflicts in this area.

“PKB considers the protection of weak groups as an inseparable moral obligation from religious norms. PKB places customs as one of the groups of people who should be seriously protected from various forms of marginalization, discrimination and criminalization, which they often face, ”Iman said.
