No Coordinates in Many Indonesia Boundaries


Member of House Commission I Fayakhun Andriadi had once again criticized Law Nomor 43 of 2008 on state boundaries without border coordinates, which had often confused security guards at the boundaries.

"This is a serious shortcoming of the law, and we from Commission I had been urging the government to make a revision of the law, to make things easier for security guards to carry out their duties in the border regions, " he said in Jakarta Monday.

He made the statement in response to information that the President will soon issue a decree establishing a special body which would manage the development of border regions.
