I don’t understand why Depkominfo has the plan to regulate the wiretapping (penyadapan) for KPK in the first place. That’s why it’s understandable if minister Tifatul Sembiring has been called by Adnan Buyung as “corrupter supporter” because none will get full advantage of this policy except the corrupters.

Minister of Communication and Information Technology Tifatul Sembiring pledged on Tuesday to find a “middle ground” on two crucial points in the controversial wiretapping bill that have been criticized by the Corruption Eradication Commission.
Tifatul met privately on Tuesday with Tumpak Hatorangan Panggabean, the interim head of the commission, known as the KPK.
He said the KPK questioned the ministry’s plan to require a court order to tap telephones and to establish the so-called National Interception Agency, which is designed to handle all wiretapping requests from law-enforcement agencies.
Tuesday’s meeting “will not be our last,” Tifatul said. “We still have time until April 2010, when we plan to finish deliberating the bill. We will continue discussing the two points intensively. Hopefully before that we could come up with some sort of a middle ground.”
KPK spokesman Johan Budi said the latest version of the bill wiretapping still contained a number of unclear provisions.
Good post! keep it up……..
Wiretaping bill, hmm okay
I’m afraid wiretapping or wirelesstapping is not urgently needed right now.
Topik yg sensitif
Makasih infonya mas Fatih…
Wiretapping Bill… Nice post.
It is in violation of the intent of the 4th amendment of the Constitution. It is therefore unlawful and an assault on the peace and freedom of the people.
Wiretapping bill will continue being controversy
I think it definitely violates a person’s right to privacy. If they have any kind of reason to suspect you then they will in all certainty get a warrant. So what’s the big deal about getting one? Obviously if they don’t want to get warrants it means they don’t have any kind of evidence to support the wiretap.
