VIVA – The Indonesian President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) has officially launched a program to implement the non-judicial resolution of past gross human rights violation incidents in Indonesia, starting from Aceh, on Tuesday. This aims to fulfill the rights of victims.
"Today, I officially launch the program for the implementation of the recommendations for non-judicial resolution of past gross human rights violation incidents in Indonesia," President Jokowi stated in Rumoh Geudong, Bili Aron Village, Pidie District, Aceh, on Tuesday.

"We are grateful that, the restoration of the rights of victims of gross human rights violations in 12 incidents can begin to be realized, which also marks a joint commitment to make efforts to prevent similar things from happening again in the future," the President said.
