The government has enacted Law No. 39 of 2008 on Ministries. Ministries, Kementerian in Indonesian, in this context are the Departments that are established by the President in order to assist the President in the performance of their duties. For convenience, Ministries are to be referred to as Departments in this ILB.
The 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia is explicit in stating that the President is to be assisted by Ministers of State in defined areas. Each of these Departments is to be lead by a Minister and these Departments are established to achieve specified goals in the governance of the State.
Simply, the Departments are to be located in Jakarta and they are directly responsible to the President. The areas for which Departments can be established are listed in the Law. For example, foreign affairs, home affairs, defense, religion, law, finance, education, and health are just some of the listed areas.
The maximum number of Departments permitted to be established at any one time is 34. Once the President takes the oath of office, they have 14 work days to establish the Departments that they desire to have assist them in matters of governance.
The basic functions of Departments are to compile, confirm, and implement policy within their respective areas of operation. Other functions include the management of state assets and wealth, supervision, and the implementation of technical matters.
The Law lists the form of a Department as a Minister, Secretariat General, Directorate General, Inspectorate General, associated Agencies and Centers, and regional and overseas offices as required.
Ministers are to be appointed by the President and can only be so after having satisfied the prevailing requirements. These requirements include, among other things, being an Indonesian citizen; loyal to the ideals of Pancasila, the Constitution, and the Proclamation of Independence; of sound mind and body; and posses a high degree of personal integrity. Generally, Ministers will be dismissed because their period of service has concluded. A Minister will also obviously cease to hold office if they die. The other means a Minister can cease their service is to resign. A Minister who fails to perform their duties for three consecutive months can be dismissed. Furthermore, a Minister convicted of a crime may also be dismissed.
Ministers cannot be serving in any other capacity whilst they are serving as Ministers.
