organizer who has provided the opportunity for Indonesia, especially for me to
participate in this ics conference.
Please allow me to briefly introduce myself, my name is Sri Suari, I am a female
police officer, who serves in the field of detective. I specifically have handled
cases of violence against women and children, for approximately 17 years. My
experience in the uncovering of various crimes, particularly the violence against
women and children, has brought me to specific tasks, namely to join a legal
drafting team, including the law on child protection (Law No. 23 of 2002
amended by Law No. 35 of 2014), the law on the Elimination of Domestic
Violence (Law No. 23 of 2004), the law on the Protection and Placement of
Indonesian Workers Abroad (Law No. 34 of 2006), the Law on the Combating of
Human Trafficking (Law No. 21 of 2007), as well as various implementing
regulations.
But since last year, I was assigned outside the police structure, namely in
the National Resilience of the Republic of Indonesia that is better known in
Indonesia as Lembaga Pertahanan dan Keamanan Nasional (Lemhamnas). Here
is a brief information about the National Resilience of the Republic of Indonesia;
this is a Non Ministry Institute directly under the President which has three main
functions, namely (1) to educate and prepare cadres of leader of the nation, to
be leaders with statesmen characteristics; (2) to strengthen the national values;
this is one of the key why Indonesia still stands as a unitary state even though it
is an extremely diverse group (consisting of more than 1,340 tribes, tens of
thousands of customs, 746 local languages, 6 major religions, with a population
of more than 252,000,000 people in more than 17,500 islands); and (3) the
function of strategic assessment, which is the area where I serve today. Output
or the results of National Resilience Institute study are presented in the form of

enlightenment will affect the realm of state politics, which one of the form is the
policy of the State, including in the form of law products. When we are talking
about law, then one important dimension of the law is how the legal politics
works in the process of enforcing the law. In particular, the legal politics that I
refer to is the strategy of law enforcement to stop the violence against
women, particularly in the realm of criminal law.
