Jakarta – The government continues to monitor digital platforms’ compliance with the implementation of the Government Regulation on Child Governance and Protection in the Digital Space (PP TUNAS) until June 2026. Through the Ministry of Communication and Digital (Kemenkomdigi), all platforms operating in Indonesia are required to undergo a self-assessment process by June 6, 2026, as part of strengthening child protection in the digital space.
“So, once again, platforms have until June to complete the self-assessment. Komdigi will then review whether the self-assessment is correct or not,” said Minister of Communication and Digital, Meutya Hafid.
She explained that Kemenkomdigi will give all platforms a deadline of June 6, 2026, to complete the self-assessment. Once the process is complete, the government will verify the results of the risk assessment submitted by each platform.
In addition to strengthening child protection in the digital space, the government also hopes that the TUNAS Regulation will encourage improvements in the quality of digital education in Indonesia. Meutya believes the implementation of this regulation will be more effective if supported by policies restricting device use in schools.
Meanwhile, the Coordinating Ministry for Human Development and Culture continues to promote the One Hour of Quality with Family (Satu Jam-Ku) Movement as an effort to reduce device addiction in children.
Woro Srihastuti Sulistyaningrum, Deputy for Coordination of Family Quality Improvement and Population Affairs at the Coordinating Ministry for Human Development and Culture, stated that the TUNAS Regulation regulates digital service providers, while strengthening family resilience is a crucial part of building a healthy digital culture.
“The TUNAS Regulation addresses the provider side, namely those who provide websites and various digital platforms. However, after regulating the provider side, we must also address the community, families, and children. One way to do this is through the One Hour-Ku Movement,” she said.
The implementation of the TUNAS Regulation can provide a strong foundation for creating a safer, healthier, and child-friendly digital ecosystem in Indonesia. Synergy between the government, digital platform providers, schools, and families is considered key to the policy’s success, ensuring that children are not only protected from digital risks but also empowered to use technology wisely and productively to support the growth and development of future generations.
