Media Askar, Minister of Economy; Nabiyla Risfa Izzati, Minister of Social Affairs and Basic Services; and Isnawati Hidayah, Minister of Agriculture and Food Sovereignty.“Our presence is intended to connect the various nodes of the people’s movement,” Media Askar said.The Konferensi Republik (Republic Conference) was represented by Yanuar Nugroho. Academics from the Interdisciplinary Intellectual Forum (FIAD), including Zainal Arifin Mochtar and Bivitri Susanti, also attended.Susanti said solidarity among civil society groups was increasingly important as various policy and economic issues continued to affect citizens.“In a national situation that places great hardship on citizens, all groups must unite in every struggle undertaken by the people,” she said.Nugroho said joining the People’s Ceremony was part of an effort to give independence a more substantive meaning.“Engaging in citizens’ initiatives means interpreting independence as the courage to envision and realize their own future,” he said.Mochtar similarly emphasized that independence should not be understood solely from the perspective of the state.“We need to bring to life the people’s perspective on independence, rather than just the state’s view,” he said.Dandhy Laksono, author of Reset Indonesia, attended as a representative of the Koperasi Indonesia Baru (New Indonesia Cooperative). The Semarang Legal Aid Institute (LBH Semarang) and administrators of the Nurul Asri Mosque also supported the event.Independence From the People’s PerspectiveThe People’s Ceremony served as a gathering point for groups seeking to highlight issues they believe affect citizens’ ability to exercise their rights and shape their own future after 81 years of Indonesian independence.Participants raised concerns affecting rural communities, including the allocation of up to 70 percent of village funds to the Merah Putih Village/Urban Village Cooperative (KDMP) program, food-poisoning cases associated with the Free Nutritious Meals (MBG) program, issues surrounding the workload and income rights of civil servants, and shortcomings in disaster management and environmental protection amid budget constraints.For the Kendeng residents and participating civil society groups, independence extends beyond national sovereignty. They argued that it should also be reflected in people’s ability to protect their environment, maintain their livelihoods, access basic services, and participate meaningfully in decisions affecting their lives.The gathering in Pati thus became a forum for reaffirming the idea of people’s sovereignty, with participants emphasizing that the government holds a mandate from citizens and should remain accountable to their interests.About the Shadow CabinetThe Shadow Cabinet is a civil society coalition that monitors the government through criticism and evidence-based counter-narratives. Its stated aims include serving as a sparring partner for the government, educating the public about policy governance, and strengthening citizens’ role in overseeing the administration.More information is available at kabinetbayangan.id.(*)\nRead: Sumatran Elephant Calf Born on Indonesia's Independence Day at Conservation Center\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nClick here to get the latest news updates from Tempo on Google News","kind":"highlight","is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":false,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":false,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"isVideo":false,"video":null,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":0,"need_auth":false,"need_login_tip":false,"code":"91000000","status":"200"}}}
