JAKARTA, KOMPAS - The modernization of the country’s defense and security system has become an urgent matter for the government. However, the procurement of the defense and security equipment should involve all stakeholders and must be based on accountability and transparency.

The drafting of a Presidential Regulation (Perpres) concerning the addition and modernization of defense and security equipment for the Defense Ministry and the Armed Forces 2020-2024 shows government\'s great commitment to the defense sector. The required funds for the procurement of defense and security equipment until 2024 is estimated to reach US$ 124.994 billion or Rp 1.75 quadrillion.
