Indonesia proposes bill letting military personnel take civilian roles after resigning from active duty.
Indonesia's government has proposed a revised bill allowing military personnel to take on civilian roles, requiring them to resign from active duty first.
This change addresses public concerns over increased military influence, easing fears of a return to the Suharto-era "dwifungsi" doctrine, which allowed the military to suppress dissent.
The bill, expected to pass this month, also extends the retirement age for active soldiers.
Exceptions for defense-related roles remain.
