DPR (People's Representative Council)

The People's Representative Council (DPR) is Indonesia's main legislative body, similar to a parliament or congress. It represents the citizens through elected members who create, amend, and review laws, oversee government policies, and allocate national budgets. Comprising multiple political parties, the DPR ensures diverse viewpoints are considered in decision-making. It operates within Indonesia’s democratic framework, working alongside the President and the Regional Representatives Council to shape the country’s laws and policies, reflecting the will of the people and maintaining checks and balances in governance.
