Compolnas: Polri was born of the uterus of reform to make the country more democratic

Jakarta – Commissioner Compolnas Mohammad Choirul Anam (Cak Anam) encourages the need to strengthen the instrument to oversee the National Police Institution. According to Cak Anam, the police’s improvement did not depart from scratch. “The first important thing we need to be identified is that the spirit of these figures reminds us that the police are born of the womb of the Reformation. That means that there is indeed a spirit, the spirit to make our country a much more democratic country, good law enforcement, safety, public order is also good,” Cak Anam told reporters on Saturday (9/13/2025).

He referred to a massive demonstration last August was also influenced by a fairly large digital space today. “For example, associated with the digital space that is so wide, how to put protection for reading, argue, collect with existing instruments. For example, if you deviate from the August action, for example, it is different if we think that actions whose digital spaces are not too wide,” he explained. “We can see how the existing instruments are in line with the times. So that it can ensure community protection, the guarantee of the rights of the community can be maximized. This is the first,” he continued. Cak Anam then highlights the criticism of the oppressive actions of the police that had to be addressed. He thought it should be seen whether the oppressive action was part of the culture in the police. ‘Secondly, there are still many, especially when we look at the records of several NGOs, there are still many oppressive actions, for example when we face the masses. The oppressive action is whether it is part of the culture or not? According to him, this problem can be taken care of about education in the police. “Therefore, for example, it can be checked at the level of education curriculum. For example, its importance reinforces the issues of human rights instruments, human rights behavior and so to education in the police. It is also important,” says Cak Anam. Furthermore, Cak Anam emphasized the importance of strengthening the supervision of National Police International and externally. He said the strengthening of the National Commission is also needed to be effective in supervision. “Internet, for example, propam, how propam can be effective or not, for example, including compoles, for example as an external supervisor. I also think the National Commission to keep supervision effectively, to be effective in preventing offenses, and effective in delivering findings that can change policies is also important to think about strengthening this supervision,” he said. According to Cak Anam, these efforts made and in accordance with the message of the National Police Chief General Listyo Sigit Prabowo to his husbands. According to him, it is necessary to strengthen the instrument so that the perspective of humanism and professionalism becomes more concrete. “Actually, there are attempts to improve. Always, for example, in recent years, Pak Listyo, for example, if the national police chief always emphasized the professional humanist, and so on. Only because the instruments are insufficient, so that there is nothing more concrete for this humanism and professionalism,” he said. “It’s also important. Therefore, this reform does not change zero. For example, some records are about how good service,” he continued. In addition, Cak Anam emphasized the breakthrough of the police by optimizing the digitalization of services, including public complaints. According to him, this step brings the national police more openly with the community so that its professionalism can be monitored. “There are attempts to digitize services, SIM, continue with complaints. If there are offenses by police officers, they can make direct complaints directly between the complainants who enter the online room.
