The Perpres Nomor 139 Tahun 2024 outlines a reorganisation of Indonesia's cabinet for the 2024-2029 period, introducing the Kabinet Merah Putih (The Red and White Cabinet). This restructuring aims to streamline government functions, improve coordination, and align ministries with emerging national priorities. A key element of the reform is the introduction of seven coordinating ministries to enhance inter-agency collaboration in areas such as politics, law, infrastructure, and food security.
Several new ministries were created, while others were split or restructured. For example, the Ministry of Education was divided into Primary and Secondary Education, Higher Education, Science, and Technology, and Culture to address their distinct needs. Similarly, the Ministry of Law and Human Rights was separated into Law, Human Rights, and Immigration and Correctional Affairs for better governance.
The new structure reflects a focus on emerging challenges, with ministries like Communication and Digital Affairs replacing the previous communications ministry to address digitalisation. Additionally, Investment and Industrial Downstreaming and Migrant Worker Protection now receive dedicated ministries to manage their specialised responsibilities, emphasising Indonesia’s economic strategy and social protection policies.
The Sekretariat Kabinet was dissolved, with its functions integrated into the Ministry of State Secretariat to streamline administrative processes. Ministries such as Public Works and Housing and Settlements were also split to enhance focus on their respective domains, ensuring efficient infrastructure development and urban planning.
This reorganisation signals a shift towards specialisation and sectoral focus, improving governance efficiency. Ministries are expected to continue their operations under the current framework until the full transition is completed by 31 December 2024, with close coordination among government bodies to ensure a smooth implementation.
The Kementerian Koordinator Bidang Politik dan Keamanan is responsible for coordinating policies related to national security, defence, law enforcement, and communication.
