Jakarta – Minister of Law Supratman Andi Agtas expressed his appreciation and gratitude to all work units for their active participation, strong performance, and positive contributions to the Ministry of Law’s achievements throughout 2025. He noted that the spirit of togetherness, collaboration, and commitment built over the year serves as a vital foundation for the Ministry’s continued progress.
Speaking at the opening of the 2025 Ministry of Law Coordination Meeting on Performance Control and Year-End Reflection, Supratman emphasized the importance of reviewing the past year by measuring and evaluating performance, while also designing innovations and strategic breakthroughs for the year ahead.
At the Directorate General of Legal Administrative Affairs (AHU), the Minister praised its significant contribution to the President’s program to establish Merah Putih Village and Urban Cooperatives, with more than 83,000 cooperatives successfully facilitated. He highlighted the unit’s ability to resolve emerging challenges smoothly as a strong and positive response.
The Minister also commended the Directorate General of Intellectual Property (IP) for proposing intellectual property–based financing, an idea inspired by discussions at the WIPO General Assembly. He noted that advanced economies provide strong protection for intellectual property, enabling innovation-based works to access financing. Following the Ministry’s proposal, the government has approved the allocation of funding for IP-based financing in 2026, which the Minister described as a major strategic breakthrough.
At the Directorate General of Legislation, Supratman acknowledged outstanding service performance, particularly the completion of government regulation harmonization within five working days. In East Kalimantan, he noted the introduction of a one-day service innovation, which enabled the harmonization of 169 government regulations in a single day.
Further appreciation was directed to the Law Policy Strategy Agency, whose analytical studies have become a mandatory basis for all Ministry policies, especially ministerial regulations. The Minister emphasized that no policy is issued without evidence-based analysis, reinforcing transparency and accountability in decision-making.
The Minister also recognized the Law Human Resources Development Agency (BPSDM Law) for strengthening staff competencies, particularly following the graduation of cadets from the Indonesian Correctional Polytechnic (Poltekpin). With these graduates transitioning to the Ministry of Immigration and Corrections, BPSDM Law will now face new challenges, including the recruitment of new students.
In terms of management support, positive performance was also attributed to the Secretariat General and the Inspectorate General, particularly in follow-ups on audit findings and human resource management. Looking ahead, after completing public service transformation efforts, the Ministry plans to further refine its merit-based system.
Special appreciation was extended to all regional offices for successfully expanding legal aid posts (Posbankum) nationwide. This initiative represents the state’s tangible presence in ensuring equal access to justice, reaching communities down to the village and urban village levels.
The Minister noted that while the initial target was 7,000 legal aid posts, collaboration between the National Legal Development Agency (BPHN) and regional offices has resulted in the establishment of more than 70,000 posts nationwide.
The coordination meeting carries the theme “Realizing Justice through Digital Transformation of Legal Services toward Indonesia Emas 2045.” The theme reflects the belief that justice is the ultimate goal of the legal system, and that every policy, service, and enforcement effort should deliver fairness to the public.
The meeting is attended by 334 participants, including senior and junior executive officials from central and regional offices, as well as heads of administrative and general affairs. Participants are divided into six commissions to discuss action plans covering management support, general legal administration, intellectual property, legislation, legal development, and technical implementation.
