But the Constitutional Court ruled in 2021 that the law was flawed due to inadequate public consultations and ordered a renewed debate process in parliament within two years.
Some legal experts have criticised Mr Jokowi’s emergency decree as a ploy to bypass a proper debate and not comply with the court order.
