Asylum and refugee law in Indonesia
What about the legislative process and discretion at the implementation level of the national legal arrangement of refugee treatment in Indonesia?
My PhD research deals with the national legal arrangement of refugee treatment in Indonesia. It focuses on two aspects: the lawmaking process and discretion at the implementation level, which it perceives as dialectical or cyclical, rather than separate processes. I look at three national legal instruments in particular:
the right to asylum provision in the Constitution, the 2011 Immigration Law, and Presidential Regulation (PR) 125/2016 on the Treatment of Foreign Refugees. These legal instruments are important, but as I will show later, they are also problematic to deal with refugees in the context of Indonesia as a non-signatory state to the 1951 UN Refugee Convention or the 1967 Refuge Protocol.
