New order government policies concerning the Indonesian Chinese : policy communication and the role of Bakom PKB

The present study deals with the nature of the New Order Government policies toward
the Indonesian Chinese ethnic group and the role of Bakom PKB in assisting the New
Order Government to formulate and implement the pembauran policy. This study will
consider the policy communication framework toward the Indonesian Chinese ethnic
group in Indonesia, and discuss the New Order Government policies, and the role of the
Bakom PKB within this framework.
Two case studies are used to iluminate the role of Bakom PKB in channeling the
pembauran policy from the government to the society vice versa. In the case of settling
the citizenship status of Chinese descent, the role of Bakom PKB in assisting the New
Order Government in formulating and implementing the pembauran policy is obvious
right from its establishment. While in the case of the development and implementation
of kemitraan (partnership) policy, the Bakom PKB only has a public relation function.
The development and implementation of kemitraan policy is carried out by the
organisation/association/institutions which are included in the pembauran policy
communication networks.
There are also discussions on the New Order Government policies concerning the
Indonesian Chinese in the period 1966 - 1996, and the communication networks that
existed amongst the Bakom PKB, Pokja Inlerdep and private institutions in
disseminating the idea of pembauran in the frame of national integration.
