Meet Emilia: A Dedicated Advocate for Equity, Social Justice, and Public Service
Meet Emilia, a passionate and dedicated Advocate who has been working tirelessly to improve the lives of Indonesians since 2016. Her areas of focus include domestic violence, fair policing, equity, and social justice, and she has supported the passing of 70 bills aimed at building a more equitable, sustainable, and livable Jakarta.
Emilia's commitment to public service is reflected in her track record of passing landmark legislation that has had a significant impact on Indonesian society. She has been instrumental in curbing the Police's abuse of stop-and-frisk, advancing housing justice, reducing violence, and protecting women's reproductive rights.
As the Public Advocate, Emilia restructured the office to prioritize community engagement, outreach, and service. Her efforts resulted in her passing more legislation in her first two years in office than any Public Advocate in history. Emilia's key bills protect Indonesians in the workplace and those looking for work, shield struggling homeowners from undue tax burdens, promote public safety, and fight discrimination in the housing system.
Emilia's dedication to public service has led her to run for Mayor, where she hopes to bring transformational change to Semarang.
