JAKARTA - Defense and Military Observer Al Araf highlighted the policy of the Governor of West Java, Dedi Mulyadi regarding sending students who were considered naughty to the TNI barracks for character and discipline development. He considered the policy inappropriate because student delinquency was not related to military duties.
Stop steps that are not strategic. In the midst of such global dynamics, Dedi Mulyadi suddenly ordered naughty children to practice at the military barracks. Where do I think the relationship is?" Al Araf said while talking to Eddy Wijaya on the EdShareOn podcast which aired on Wednesday, May 21, 2025.
According to Al Araf, the military barracks are places devoted to war games and maintain national defense. So that the military barracks have a different ecosystem from civilians or naughty students. "It's not right for them to be sent to military barracks, because it's not their place. Soldiers there are right, defense there is right, training is right there, but these children are not there," he said.
The Governor of West Java, Dedi Mulyadi, has been in the public spotlight again after sending problematic students to the TNI barracks since Monday, May 5, 2025. The students who were sitting in junior high and high school equivalent were placed in two barracks, namely the State Defense Education Depot (Dodik) Rindam III Siliwangi, Bandung Regency, and at the Medan 1 Artillery Regiment Sthira Yudha, Battalion Armed 9, Purwakarta Regency. The policy drew a lot of criticism from various parties, and even reported one of the student's guardians to Komnas HAM. However, Dedi was unmoved and continued the program.
Al Araf explained that schools have their own curriculum in educating students to behave poorly, for example with the teaching of counseling teachers (BK), as well as coaching through extracurricular activities such as scouting, sports and recreation. (The trick) to the education room which does build a cognitive aspect to change a person's character into a character that truly accepts differences, changes, builds diversity, discipline, it exists in the school space," he said.
The lecturer at the Faculty of Law, Universitas Brawijaya, said that discipline is part of the cognitive aspect that can be obtained in education systems in schools and in the family environment. Who can build it? The education system from elementary, junior high, high school must then be returned to the education room. Second, to the family space because after all, the family is the first defense for children. And I believe parents have a way, have steps to educate them," he said.
The senior Imparsial researcher hopes that the government will review the policy and entrust education for children to the school. If there is a problem in schools regarding naughty children, the first to blame is the Ministry of Education, what is the attitude?" he said. If the world of education becomes something fun, there is no need for military barracks. This education system must be built better," he added.
Responding to Al Araf's statement, Eddy Wijaya invited all parties to provide opportunities for the implementation of the program for students to enter the barracks. "We'll see first KDM (Kang Dedi Mulyadi) has a successful system or not? Given several months, for example," he said.
Eddy explained that the program was held because he was an example of a Chinese country that succeeded in educating school children through a similar program. "But indeed this is still a pro contra and there are negative positives whose parents agree and some are even suing Komnas HAM," he said.
Defense and Military Observer Al Araf emphasized the importance of Transfer of Technology (TOT) from other countries in the national defense industry. This is because TOT is a prerequisite that has been stated in the Defense Industry Law Number 16 of 2012.
"But the fact is TOT is only a formality. The important thing is that you have been trained, already, go home," said Al Araf to Eddy Wijaya describing the state of military training between Indonesia and other countries. TOT Indonesia is a TOT in the style of Indonesia. Finally I was confused, TOT and onde-onde cakes became narrow differences," he added.
The chairman of the Central Initiative Management Agency said, TOT is a good program to improve military technology in Indonesia. But the problem is, TOT is something beautiful, but in practice do these countries want (to let go of the technology) ? ) said Al Araf.
Therefore, Al Araf hopes that Commission I of the DPR RI will play an active role in resolving problems that occur regarding Indonesia's cooperation with other countries in the national defense industry. Mainly the problems faced by the defense industry such as PT. PAL, PT. Dirgantara Indonesia, and PT Pindad.
"Often they are afraid to speak because they are part of SOEs, they are horrified to speak as they are. But this is a serious matter. For me, defense independence is indeed an important thing but at the same time we are not good enough to build the defense industry in Indonesia. I'm sorry," he said.
