Update on search engine

Saturday, January 6, 2007

I have just updated this blog's search engine (located on the search box on the right panel of this blog) so as to include 207 (two hundred and seven) links or approximately more than 180 (one hundred and eighty) governmental institutions ranging from the people's consultative assembly (MPR), house or representative (DPR), judicial institutions such as the constitutional court and the supreme court, ministries, non departemental agencies, sub departemental agencies and directorate generals, as well as non governmental organisations, private parties and Indonesian law blogs.

The regulations indexed includes, among other, 1945 Constitution and its amendments (UUD 1945), Laws / Parliament's Act (Undang-Undang), Government Regulations in lieu of Law (Perpu), followed by Implementing Regulations that consists of Government Regulation (Peraturan Pemerintah), Presidential Regulation (Perpres) and Regional Regulation (Perd). It also crawls several ministries and therefore includes sectoral regulations such as Ministerial Decision (Keputusan Menter) and Ministerial Regulation (Peraturan Menteri). As the engine also crawls judicial bodies, it also include Constitutional Court's Decision (Keputusan Mahkamah Konstitusi) and some decisions of the Supreme Court. You can also find investment regulations, banking regulations and capital market regulations in the search result's as it also crawls the National Investment Coordinating Agency (BKPM), Bank Indonesia (Indonesian Central Bank), Capital Market Supervisory Agency (Bapepam), as well as Jakarta and Surabaya Stock Exchanges (JSX and SSX). Too bad, not all of them in English.

Law information should be free and easy to find!! ;)
