JAKARTA - The Directorate General of General Law Administration of the Ministry of Law and Human Rights continues to strive to ensure the protection of the status of Indonesian citizens or Indonesian descendants without documents (undocumentedcitizens) needed to demonstrate their citizenship status.
One of them, the Directorate General of AHU prepared a legal framework in the form of a Draft Regulation of the Minister of Law and Human Rights concerning Procedures for Affirming Indonesian Citizenship Status for Indonesian Citizens Outside the Territory of the Republic of Indonesia.
"This technical regulation will later become the legal basis for Indonesian representatives abroad, to carry out analysis and examination in determining the affirmation of citizenship status for Indonesian citizens and children without documents (undocumented)," said the Director General of General Legal Administration of the Ministry of Law and Human Rights Cahyo R. Muzhar as reported by ANTARA, Monday, May 13.
Cahyo explained that the Permenkumham would later aim as the legal basis for Indonesian representatives in carrying out the affirmation of the status of Indonesian citizens abroad.
"Second, as a guideline for representatives of the Republic of Indonesia in affirming status, but not in too much detail because those who better understand special sciences (special procurements) in their respective countries are representatives," he said.
The Permenkumham will regulate the technical flow of the granting of the State Status Certificate of the Republic of Indonesia (SKSK RI) which is a written document containing information regarding the affirmation of Indonesian citizenship status.
"This SKSK will be issued by the Minister of Law and Human Rights and processed electronically by the information technology system to be built by the Directorate General of AHU," he said.

Cahyo explained, each representative will be given electronic access to apply for SKSK as well as carry out examinations and analysis of each application before being entered into the electronic application of the Directorate General of AHU.
After an examination and analysis by representatives, he continued, the Minister of Law and Human Rights will issue a SKSK RI if the applicant concerned is indeed considered to meet the criteria as an Indonesian citizen.
"The application for the confirmation of the status of Indonesian citizens, which originally did not have a clear legal basis and was carried out manually, has a clear legal basis and can be processed more easily with this regulation," he said.
