Iklan Young People's Confined Space YOUNG PEOPLE FACE THE NARROW SPACE OF POLITICS (1) With large numbers, young people have bargaining power against change. Unfortunately their space for politics is still narrow. What are their chances of making a difference? Audio Berita 7 menit By Eren Masyukrilla 17 Juli 2023 06:10 WIB · 5 menit baca TEKS The following article was translated using both Microsoft Azure Open AI and Google Translation AI. As the largest group of voters, young people under the age of 40 have a high bargaining power to actively engage in the political stage. The involvement of young people requires a fair and transparent political space. The high number of young voters can be seen from the recapitulation of the Permanent Voters List (DPT) established by the General Elections Commission (2/7/2023). There are 204.8 million voters who will participate in the 2024 General Election, with 56 percent coming from young voters. Specifically, the Millennial generation (25-39 years) accounts for 68.8 million people (33.6 percent), and the Generation Z (17-24 years) has reached 46.8 million voters (22.9 percent). This condition directly places young voters as determinants in the 2024 elections. With the bargaining power they possess, it is only appropriate that the existence of the youth is no longer seen only as a voting market or simply used as "political candies" to attract support. However, to this day, young people's involvement in politics has not fully gained wide space, so that political regeneration has stalled. Director of Political, Legal, Defense, and Security Policy at the National Research and Innovation Agency (BRIN), Moch. Nurhasim, revealed that there is a significant barrier for young people to be involved as active political actors. This obstacle cannot be separated from the whirlwind of oligarchy, both at the local and national levels. According to him, this is what traps political regeneration into just a hereditary politics. ”For young people, nowadays to get ahead in the political arena, there is not just a barrier (barrier), but there is a big wall that has no gaps. If you don't have the privilege access, don't expect to be able to take part in active politics," explained Nurhasim, Saturday (8/7/2023). The continued lack of political regeneration paths is also reflected in the measurement carried out by the Economist Intelligence Unit Democracy Index 2022. The index measurement places Indonesia at 101st out of 147 countries in terms of political regeneration. The average age of members of parliament in Indonesia from the study is 51.6 years. Along with that, the data of the age of elected members of the parliament above 50 years old continues to show an increasing trend. In the period of 2009-2014, the proportion of legislative members above 50 years old was 40 percent, still balanced with members of the council who are 40 years old. Entering the term of office for 2014-2019, the elected legislative members aged above 50 years old have increased to 45.7 percent. Furthermore, in the period of 2019-2024, the senior group of people who sit in Senayan continue to grow with a proportion of no less than 55 percent. NARROW SPACE The narrow space for young people is also clearly illustrated from the landscape of candidacy for members of the legislature. Based on data on national-level legislative candidates (caleg) which were opened to the public in 2014, only around 24.8 percent were filled by people with a maximum age of 40 years. Furthermore, in the 2019 election, the proportion of young politicians who took part in the DPR election still fluctuated at around a quarter of the share. Actually, a political forum for young people has been provided, one of which has been realized in political contestation regulations. Minimum age regulations for candidates for legislative members, for example, are at least 21 years old (Law Number 7/2017). The same goes for the minimum age for gubernatorial candidates is 30 years old and for regents and mayors is at least 25 years old (Law Number 10/2016). > The measurement of the index places Indonesia in the 101st position out of 147 > countries in terms of political regeneration. However, it cannot be denied that access for young people is still limited. In addition to access privilege, two other factors are political maturity and party cadre management. Member of the Board of Trustees of the Elections and Democracy Association (Perludem), Titi Anggraini, revealed that there is a strong perspective towards young people who are still considered to be insufficiently capable of participating in politics. “There is a stigma that young people do not have sufficient competence. On the one hand, political parties do not fully have a clear scheme for young people. The relations that are built within the party are influenced by the cadre process which is managed through seniority," said Titi in a discussion with Kompas Research and Development in Jakarta, Wednesday (5/7/2023). POTENCY "In order to broaden the political space for the young generation, support from political elites is needed, both from those in government, legislative, and political parties." The results of qualitative analysis through the Quality Scorecard Deployment (QSD) matrix modeling conducted by Kompas Research and Development show that there are three priority aspects of action that can be taken to increase youth's political contribution. The first priority is the need to encourage the political will or will of the elite to be more pro-young. This political support is in the form of a real commitment as outlined in real regulations and programs. The next aspect that is equally important to do is to ensure that the political party cadreship process runs properly. Lastly, there are various policies that support the existence of young people to be able to engage in active politics. This analysis finding was confirmed by the explanation of the Director General of Politics and Public Administration, Ministry of Home Affairs, Bahtiar. According to him, the government sees the urgency for young people to be involved in practical politics, especially to ensure that the process of political cadres continues to run. KOMPAS/LASTI KURNIA A number of independent young volunteers, who are not affiliated with any political or social groups, went down in the afternoon to help collect trash in the Patung Pak Tani and Balai Kota areas in Jakarta on Friday (4/11/2016). "The current regulations are not yet maximizing the facilitation for youth to actively engage in politics. There needs to be a comprehensive change to political regulations so that it can provide a wider space for the youth," said Bahtiar, who was met in his office in Jakarta on Monday (26/6/2023)." In line with that, the young politician who currently serves as a Special Staff to the Minister of State Secretary for Communication and Media, Faldo Maldini, also highlights the access for young people to engage in political activities. "The political arena or current elections need to be prepared more fairly and transparently," Faldo said during an interview in Jakarta on Tuesday (20/6/2023). According to him, this transparency makes the election not only prioritize financial capital but also emphasizes the competition of ideas." However, despite all the limitations of access, on one side, the youth continue to be creative in expanding space and even breaking through political barriers. Many collective actions initiated by young people through social media networking have successfully voiced the interests of the public or criticism on strategic issues such as the posting of damaged roads in several areas in the country. A series of creativity and innovation that is adaptive to current trends strengthens the superior position of young people besides their existence as a large political voting group. These capitals and capabilities should be converted into strength to break through political barriers and present more and more organic and competent cadres of national leaders in the future.
