T
he House of Representatives has handed over the final draft of the controversial Job Creation Law to President Joko “Jokowi” Widodo on Wednesday.
Out of four final drafts circulating in public, which has caused confusion among citizens over the final content of the law, the House submitted the latest 812-page draft to Jokowi.
House secretary-general Indra Iskandar submitted the final draft through State Secretary Pratikno at the Presidential Palace complex in Jakarta on Wednesday afternoon, Kompas TV reported.
Earlier on Wednesday, Indra told The Jakarta Post that the House would publish a copy of the law for the public after Jokowi signed it, instead of on the day of submission.
As of Wednesday morning, the House had yet to officially distribute or publish a copy of the final law to the public.
The draft uploaded to the House's website was the one that had yet to be finalized by the House Legislation Body (Baleg), which was 1,028 pages long.
