As is known, Melly proposed a revision of UUHC last year, which was later designated as a Priority National Legislation Program (Prolegnas) 2025. Some experts from various interests related to Copyright have been invited. As we all know, this law does not only belong to musicians, there are many other copyright holders who are also entitled to this law," he continued. Melly said, the study of the revision of UUHC was also discussed with several universities. Because the law that is included in the 2025 Priority Prolegnas is very important, so the BKD team is very careful, so the journey to the first draft is still long. Forum Group Discussion (FGD) which was held with Indonesian music stakeholders on November 18, 2024 then also became important. The reason is, many inputs come from music insanists.

"At that time, the FGD was held for up to five hours, because everyone wanted to speak and express their opinion. We gave the opportunity. The activity was also broadcast live by Parliament TV, it can be accessed by all people via YouTube," he said. Melly also expressed her gratitude to those who have supported and provided input. He also invited the public to participate in providing input. . "Even for the general public, everyone can provide input. And this is not only for the Copyright Law, for all laws that are being studied by the DPR RI, the public can all provide input through SIMAS PUU / Center for the Drafting of Laws.
