Al Araf

researcher Indonesia

Al Araf is a senior researcher at Imparsial, an organization focused on human rights and democracy in Indonesia. He has been an active voice in discussions regarding military involvement in civil governance, advocating for the enforcement of laws that limit the roles of active military personnel in civilian positions. His recent statements to the Indonesian Parliament have highlighted the concerning trend of over 2,500 active military members occupying civilian roles, which he argues undermines the merit system in bureaucracy and the professionalism of the military.
