JAKARTA - Minister of Religion (Menag) Yaqut Cholil Qoumas said anyone involved in the practice of terrorism must be dealt with in accordance with applicable legal provisions.
"If he is involved in the practice of terrorism, he must be prosecuted according to the applicable law," he said as quoted by ANTARA, Tuesday, August 15.
Regarding the existence of employees of State-Owned Enterprises (BUMN) who were arrested due to alleged acts of terrorism, Minister of Religion Yaqut said he would speak to SOE Minister Erick Thohir to ensure the incident did not repeat itself.
To prevent this from happening at the Ministry of Religion, the Minister of Religion said that his party has a special strategy as an effort to prevent the existence of terrorism practices within the Ministry of Religion.
"We have a priority program called religious moderation. How people think moderately, not too far to the right and left," he said.

Meanwhile, the Head of the Personnel Bureau, Secretary General (Sekjen) of the Ministry of Religion Nurudin explained this.
In the recruitment of Government Employees with Work Agreements (PPPK) and Candidates for State Civil Apparatus (CASN), he said, his party had proposed to the Ministry of Administrative Reform and Bureaucratic Reform (KemenPAN-RB) to include the content of religious moderation in its entry test as a priority.
"The bot is 40 percent for CASN, and it already exists," said Nurudin
Nurudin said this was a strategic step to present ASN whose ideology is the same as the nation's ideology, and can prevent potential intolerance or radicalism among ASN.
He hopes that ASN, especially within the Ministry of Religion, will not be involved in the practice of terrorism, because they have implemented priority programs in the form of religious moderation tests.
"So my term is that if ASN is good, then God willing, the issue of this republic will be resolved properly," said Nurudin.
