JAKARTA The Executive Director of the Citra Institute, Yusak Farchan, assessed that the public's sense of justice would be disturbed if the plan to provide life-long pension funds for members of the DPR was realized.
This is because DPR members in each period only work for five years and their performance is often considered disappointing by the public, especially in terms of regulatory production.
"Work five years, but can you retire for life? The DPR should find a good agreement with the people and increase its image. Of course it would be better if the DPR itself could eliminate the pension money by revising the law," he said, Sunday, October 6, 2024.
In addition to improving the image in the eyes of the public, the DPR will reduce the burden on the state budget if it does not realize the pension fund for life. Moreover, until now there are still many people who have difficulty meeting their daily needs.

"This can reduce the burden on the state budget and can be a good example because it is sensitive to the principle of justice for the people of Indonesia," added Yusak.
He also emphasized that the lifetime pension fund budget for members of the DPR does not urge to be realized. "Indeed, there must be an appreciation for the performance of the DPR, but is the pension fund really urgent? It must be reviewed because the needs of the people are also large or allocated to more important things," he said.
Previously, the Deputy Speaker of the DPR, Sufmi Dasco Ahmad, revealed that his party would discuss life pension funds for members of the DPR after getting aspirations from the public.
Moreover, the legal basis regarding the granting of pensions for leaders and members of the DPR RI has been regulated in Law No. 12 of 1980 concerning Financial/Administrative Rights for Leaders and Members of the Highest/Highest State Institution and the Former Leadership of the Highest/State Institution.
