President Joko Widodo (center) addresses journalists’ questions on Thursday (26/9/2019) following a meeting at Merdeka Palace in Jakarta, standing amidst a group of professionals who attended the meeting. In particular, he responded to questions regarding the possibility of a Perppu (government regulation in lieu of law) to annul the newly passed KPK Law.

President Joko “Jokowi” Widodo has changed his mind. He previously closed the option to issue a government regulation in lieu of law (Perppu) to revoke the controversial revision of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) Law. Now, the President is considering it.

The issuance of a Perppu is the authority of the President which is stipulated in the constitution. The change in President Jokowi’s position was made after meeting with elements of the community at the State Palace on Thursday, 26 Sept. 2019.
