Tanggung Jawab Negara Terhadap Pemenuhan Hak Yang Dimiliki Lanjut Usia (Lansia) Ditinjau Dari Undang-Undang Republik Indonesia Nomor 13 Tahun 1998 Tentang Kesejahteraan Lanjut Usia (Lansia) Dalam Perspektif Hak Asasi Manusia
Increasing the number of elderly population (60 years and over) every year
continues to increase. This condition causes many elderly people who experience
social violence and violations of the rights of the elderly. One form of human
rights violations possessed by the elderly is neglect by families, people around or
the community who no longer pay attention to the elderly. This should receive
special attention from the government in order to realize the welfare of the elderly
as expected in Law No. 13 of 1998 concerning Elderly Welfare by providing
social protection for the elderly. Social protection is a human right that is owned
by every citizen. The government in particular has formulated various regulations
aimed at the welfare of its people in Act Number 11 of 2009 concerning Social
Welfare. But the fact is, until now there has not been formed a special role from
the government in helping neglected elderly get their social welfare, so it can be
said that legal protection for neglected elderly people in Indonesia is still vague.
This type of research can be classified in normative juridical research,
because this research is carried out by examining secondary data and approaches
to the law, this normative study examines applicable regulations and relates to the
human rights of the elderly. Source of data used are primary data, secondary
data, tertiary data, data collection techniques in this study are normative
juridical, the data used is literature study
The results of the study conducted by the author are the role of
government or society in realizing the welfare of the elderly is still very weak.
This is evidenced by the increasing number of neglect of the elderly themselves.
Therefore, to realize the welfare of the elderly as expected by the welfare state
(walfare state), the government must take concrete actions in fulfilling the elderly
rights that have been regulated in Law No. 13 of 1998 concerning elderly welfare.
In an effort to provide protection and fulfillment of the right to the elderly, the
government must work extra. One of them is by updating the law governing the
elderly so that it can be applied in modern times.
