PTA Ambon’s website sits as a runner-up with 30 points. 3rd position until 5th position respectively are PTA Banjarmasin (26 points), PTA Yogyakarta (26 points), and PTA Mataram (23 points). Meanwhile, PTA Kupang, East Nusa Tenggara gets the last position with 7 points. .“We used the same parameters as we did when assessing Religious Court websites,” said Aziz from NLRP.
NLRP uses Law No. 14/2008 on Transparency of Public Information and SK KMA 144/2007 on Transparency of Court Information as the parameters to assess court websites.
The NLRP assessment also reveals that all Indonesia’s High Religious Courts already have websites online. And most of the websites provide a quite complete data.
DG of Badilag, Wahyu Widiana, expressed his high appreciation to PTAs that had work hard to establish websites for public services.
