  28. PusatStudiHukum & Kebijakan Indonesia Indonesian Centre for Law & Policy Studies “Toward Socially Responsible Lawmaking” The fall of the “New Order” regime in 1998 revealed the long-standing flaws within government systems; flaws that were hidden and buried for the benefit of certain people. Subsequently, commitments to reform were declared on topics ranging from politics to economics. Law is primary area in dire need of reform. Law is also needed to provide a sound regulatory platform for systemic changes in many areas. Clearly, legal reform is needed in Indonesia; and legal reform needs serious study and advocacy. Thus, PSHK (Centre for Indonesian Law and Policy Studies) was established in 1 July 1998. PSHK is not about jargons on legal reform, nor it is about mere complaints and anger on present situation. Rather, PSHK is focused on having a highly-engaged, meaningful role in Indonesian legal reform.
