Dream - Minister of Communication and Informatics (Kominfo), Budi Arie Setiadi, recently proposed the formation of the Social Media Council (DMS). Budi said that the plan to establish the DMS is not just a random idea.

"Social Media Council is not just an arbitrary idea from the side of the road or casual conversations or someone rambling. This Social Media Council is a recommendation from UNESCO, where the proposal was given to us, even a 160-page academic manuscript."

The text translates to English as follows while preserving the HTML tags: "the word Budi in his statement was quoted on Tuesday, June 4, 2024."

It explains that the formation of DMS is a recommendation from the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) in enhancing child protection in the digital space. "We want to protect children in the digital space, there is a term called child online protection or child protection in the digital space. Sometimes you see on social media that children are being bullied in their schools. So, these (bullying victims) need to be protected," he said.

According to Budi, it is in line with the Government's commitment in early 2024 to implement Law Number 1 of 2024 concerning the Second Amendment to Law Number 11 of 2008 concerning Electronic Information and Transactions.

Budi admits that currently the government has not taken steps in the formation of DMS. According to him, the government is currently considering the plan for the policy formation of DMS. "The development of this new media has brought about disputes. Therefore, it is necessary to carry out a reform of its arrangement. Basically, it is independent like the Press Council. We will conduct a study and also discuss it with many parties," he said.

Regarding the plan, Budi asked the public not to misunderstand the ongoing discussion. He emphasized that DMS cannot possibly restrict freedom of expression in public social media platforms.

"So as not to be misunderstood or twisted, is the government monitoring social media? No! This is the recommendation of an international organization, UNESCO. Later, I will provide the draft from UNESCO if you want the academic script."
Firm Budi.

According to Budi, in UNESCO's proposal, the Social Media Council is in the form of a network or an independent coalition that is not under government control. Its members will consist of representatives from civil society organizations, academics, the press, communities, practitioners, experts, and industry players. Budi emphasizes that the establishment of the Social Media Council is not intended to monitor all content on social media.

"UNESCO principle involves multistakeholders in social media. So it is independent and works in cooperation or coalition across stakeholders such as religious leaders, academics, society, all social media activists," he said.

"Of course, it will not restrict the freedom of the community to express their opinions on social media. What is certain is that the Government supports the freedom of the community to voice their opinions. Indonesia is a democratic country, so don't worry, you all have control. This Social Media Council is by the people, for the people."

"ungkapnya" translates to "he/she expressed."
