    ALSA LAWCAST #4 (Part 2): "Mural Kritik Pemerintah Dihapus Paksa, Masih Bebaskah Rakyat Berpendapat?"

    Greetings, ALSAians!   Some time ago, social media was bustling with the appearance of a mural with a face similar to Jokowi's blindfolded with the words 404: Not Found. The discussion became even more lively when the mural was removed by the authorities and not long after a massive mural removal to ones which were suspected to contain criticism towards the government happened. The climax was when those muralists were "hunted" by the police. A huge wave of protest on social media has arisen regarding the people's freedom of expression. Even Gejayan Memanggil held a mural contest titled Lomba Mural Dibungkam, which was participated by muralists in various cities in Indonesia as a form of protest. Public discussion about this case is also associated with the "rebirth" of the article on insulting the president in the RUU KUHP. The question arises: What will happen to the people's freedom of expression in the future? As the public, especially the muralists concern is increasing regarding the assurance of their right to freedom of expression, it is necessary to hold discussions and actions to raise public awareness about the right to freedom of expression. To realize this goal, the Law Development Division of ALSA LC UGM proudly presents a Podcast entitled: "LAWCAST #4: "Mural Kritik Pemerintah Dihapus Paksa, Masih Bebaskah Rakyat Berpendapat?" This discussion will be guided by Moderator: Ainnaya Fitri Qamarani (Law Development, 2020) And participated by special guests: 1. Amat Banteng - Pecandu Seni Kampus; and 2. Muhammad Fatahillah Akbar, S.H., LL.M. (UGM) This podcast can be accessed on Spotify ALSA LC UGM. With this podcast, we hope that we can give a comprehensive understanding and spread awareness related to the right of freedom of expression. Stay safe and take care wherever you are! ___________________ To Inspire and To Aspire ALSA, Always be One!

    E-TALKS #5 (Part 1): Traversing the Cyber World: Challenges of Security, Inadequacy of Existing Laws and Rectification

    Our world has entered the Digital Era. Technology is all around us and our knowledge is expanded rapidly and vastly through the internet with little to no human intervention. And thus, a new threat emerges, namely Cybercrime. Cybercrime is a crime that involves a computer and a network, in which the computer may have been used in the commission of a crime, or the target, to harm someone's security and financial health. Knowing that Indonesia has been in a rather tough position with regards to cybersecurity, discussing this matter can help shed some light onto what can be done for improvement. This can also raise the citizens' awareness and understanding on how they can protect themselves from cyberattacks. With that in mind, questions escalate amongst people such as what motivated these data leaks? How do cybercriminal organizations usually operate? And what are the government's attempts to combat these cybercrimes? To answer those questions, English Development Division ALSA LC UGM proudly presents a Podcast titled: E-TALKS #5 “Traversing the Cyber World: Challenges of Security, Inadequacy of Existing Laws and Rectification". This discussion will be led by our Moderator: Queeney Sutanto (English Development Division, 2020) And participated by our special speakers: 1. Anton Setiyawan (Spokesperson of National Cyber and Crypto Agency). 2. Dr. Josua Sitompul (Head of Legal Division of Indonesia Cyber Law Community); and This Podcast can only be accessed on Spotify. With this Podcast, we hope that we can give a comprehensive understanding and awareness regarding terrorism attacks. Stay safe and take care wherever you are!
