Indonesia: ICITAP Attachés Highlight Impact of Assistance to National Police
On April 7, ICITAP-Indonesia’s Attachés delivered a comprehensive presentation of ICITAP’s law enforcement assistance mission to 185 interagency and international participants, by leveraging a number of audio-visual tools and covered the context, 21-year history, successes, challenges, and opportunities of ICITAP’s work in Indonesia. In 2000, ICITAP began working with the Indonesian National Police (INP) on the heels of its transition from a military-led organization to a stand-alone, civilian law enforcement agency. The program is one of ICITAP’s largest police assistance missions in Asia, providing training and technical assistance to the INP in system and policy enhancement, organizational change, curriculum development, and equipment donations. ICITAP also provides direct assistance and support to several other Indonesian law enforcement agencies and ministries, including the Financial Reporting and Transaction Analysis Center, and the ministries of Environment and Forestry; of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries; of Finance; of Law and Human Rights; and of Women Empowerment. Thanks to ICITAP’s partnership with DOJ’s Office of Public Affairs (OPA) and the U.S. Embassy in Jakarta, OPA released the following tweet: https://twitter.com/USDOJ_Intl/status/1379916855800893441. In Indonesia, ICITAP works closely with and is funded by the State Department’s Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs (INL) and the Bureau of Counterterrorism (CT).
