The Government

In this present time, the debate about abortion in Indonesia is increasingly crowded. Abortion is also carried out by women - victims of rape to reduce the burden they suffered. The regulation on abortion in Indonesia has been regulated in the statutory regulations, namely the Criminal Code, especially in Article 346, Article 347, Article 348, and Article 349. In the RKUHP (Draft of Criminal Code), abortion regulation is regulated in two chapters namely, Chapter XIV Article 501 and Chapter XIX Articles 589, 590, 591, 592. In addition, the government has also issued several regulations governing abortion such as Government Regulation No. 61 of 2014 concerning Reproductive Health and also Law No. 36 of 2009 concerning health. However, the various regulations that exist between the Criminal Code, RKUHP, PP and the Act actually contradict to each other. There is no synchronization between the regulations regarding abortion by women rape victims. The KUHP and RKUHP clearly do not allow abortion in Indonesia and do not legalize it without any exception, including abortion carried out by women victims of rape. Whereas in Law Number 36 of 2009 concerning health, abortion can be carried out on an indication of medical emergencies and pregnancy due to rape that causes psychological trauma, so abortionists cannot be prosecuted as criminal.

Artikel ini berpendapat bahwa perempuan memiliki semua hak membuat keputusan untuk dirinya sendiri dan bahwa ia harus memiliki akses informasi mengenai kesehatan reproduksinya dan bagaimana cara merawatnya. Namun, wanita di daerah terpencil memiliki kekhawatiran dalam menggunakan alat kontrasepsi atau tidak tahu apa-apa tentangnya. Mengacu pada permasalahan tersebut, penelitian ini mengkaji bagaimana wanita mengatasi dampak dari kurangnya informasi yang diberikan oleh institusi tentang Hukum Kesehatan Reproduksi. Wawancara kualitatif dilakukan dengan wanita yang tinggal di barangays pinggiran kota Calbayog. Hasil menunjukkan bahwa lembaga-lembaga ini melakukan seminar tetapi kurang menjelaskan rincian penggunaan kontrasepsi dan pentingnya keluarga berencana untuk kesehatan wanita. Buruknya penerapan Responsible Parenthood and Reproductive Health Act tahun 2012 berkontribusi pada situasi sulit bagi perempuan di kota Calbayog.
