PP TUNAS Narrative English: Board Sentences. GC Signs.
Board Sentences. GC Signs.

A fine formula linked to global revenue is not an IT ticket. It is a board story that will be retold in Jakarta rooms whether you show up or not.

PP TUNAS public affairs English Indonesia boards can use is five sentences a PA lead can take into that room: what the duty is in plain words, what you already do, what you will not claim, who speaks, and when the next proof lands.

This is the language companion to our Indonesia PP TUNAS public-affairs playbook. That piece covers why the fine formula became a narrative event, the stakeholder sequence, and compliance theater versus trust messaging. This one gives you the sentences.

Street-smart APAC English: short sentences a tired operator can say out loud.

Communications craft, not legal advice. Confirm current Indonesian child-protection and platform rules with licensed counsel.

Why do boards need PP TUNAS public affairs English Indonesia desks can repeat?

Because the number travels faster than the rule.

The parent piece reports that in mid-September Indonesia’s communications ministry said PP TUNAS child-protection fines had been formulated at up to 6% of global revenue for large and global platforms, with the draft moving toward Finance for codification. Legal can model that. Boards hear something else: “Are we the villain in a child-protection story?”

Advertisers hear brand risk. Creators hear livelihood risk. Parents hear whether platforms are safe for their kids. Your English has to answer each of them without inventing what the rule says.

PP TUNAS Narrative English card: Write five sentences, draft vs final line, date one public proof.
Say this: Write five sentences, draft vs final line, date one public proof.

What goes in the first PP TUNAS board paper?

Five blocks. One sentence each. No adjectives without an artefact.

Block Kill this Say this
Duty “We take kids seriously.” “The announced formula links child-protection fines for large and global platforms to global revenue. That makes this a company-level story, not a local-app story.”
Exposure “Fines are theoretical.” “The headline risk is a percentage of global revenue. That is why this sits with the board, not only Trust and Safety.”
Proof “World-class controls.” “Here is the control we can show this month: [named process]. Here is the gap we will close by [date].”
Limit “We are fully compliant.” “We are not claiming a clean bill. We are claiming a dated work plan.”
Voice “The CEO will tweet empathy.” “One spokesperson. No founder thread. The proof page updates on [day].”
Kill this, say this panel: habits crossed out, replaced by write five sentences, draft vs final line, date one public proof.
Kill this: the habit lines.

Add one line the parent piece insists on: draft versus final. “What was announced: [x]. What is still draft: [y]. What we will not predict: timing.” That line saves the next quarter’s walk-back.

How do you write the child-protection public line?

Short. Dated. Owned. No villains.

  • Say: “We operate [service] in Indonesia. We are reviewing our child-protection controls against the current rule. The next public update is [date] on this page.”
  • Kill: “This is a Western overreach.”
  • Kill: “Parents should just supervise more.”
  • Kill: “We take this very seriously.” Unless the next sentence is a date.

The parent piece’s street-smart rule: if your statement cannot survive a creator stitching it next to a parent interview, rewrite it. Read your child-protection public line with that stitch in mind.

What does each audience need to hear?

Same facts. Different job. The parent piece names four audiences.

  • Parents: “Here is what we already do to protect younger users. Here is what changes, and when, once it is real.” No scare ads. No children as props.
  • Creators: “Our community guidelines are not changing today. If they change, you will hear it from us first, in plain language.” No threats.
  • Advertisers: “Here is what the announcement means for inventory, and what is still draft.” Never declare the market unbuyable.
  • Employees: “If family asks, say we are reviewing controls and point them to the update page. Do not guess.”

What goes in the staff and vendor freeze?

One card. Same words for staff, moderators, and agencies.

Do not explain the fine math in group chats.
Do not promise a product change that Product has not dated.
Send press to [owner].

Brief vendors who moderate or recommend content with the same card. A vendor slide that “simplifies” the fine is how most narrative accidents start, according to the parent piece.

How do Bahasa Indonesia and English versions stay matched?

Write one English spine. Then write the Bahasa Indonesia version as an original that says the same thing, not a stiff shrink.

The parent piece recommends a one-page glossary so partner decks stop inventing policy:

  • PP TUNAS: the child-protection regulatory framework in the September announcements.
  • PSE: electronic system providers. Domestic caps by business scale may differ from the global-platform formula.
  • PNBP: the non-tax state revenue pathway Finance may use to codify collection.

If the two versions disagree on draft versus final, stop and fix it before either ships.

What should regional hubs never say about Indonesia?

Analogies without counsel create false certainty. The parent piece gives the allowed sentence:

Indonesia announced a global-revenue-linked child-protection fine formula; details are still moving through Finance.

Kill invented effective dates. Kill naming every platform as already fined. Kill “like the rule in [another market].” Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, and Seoul desks should paste the allowed sentence and stop there.

Flat illustration, Jakarta shift timeline with three marked beats: Write five sentences, draft vs final line, date one public proof.
Desk note: Date one public proof.

Monday field kit

  1. Write five board sentences. The GC signs.

  3. Date one public proof item. Kill adjectives with no artefact.
  4. Name one spokesperson. Lock personal accounts.
  5. Brief vendors who moderate or recommend content with the same freeze card.
  6. Put the next update on a calendar the board can see.

FAQs

What is PP TUNAS public affairs English Indonesia teams can use?

It is a set of board-safe sentences that turn a child-protection enforcement story into duty, exposure, proof, limit, and voice, plus a date for the next update. It separates what was announced from what is still draft.

Should we publish the fine percentage?

Only if counsel wants that number in public. The board paper can carry it, but the public line does not have to, and it should never imply the figure is final while the draft is still moving.

Can we say we are fully compliant?

Not unless counsel will defend it in writing. Claim a dated work plan and one control you can show this month instead.

Who should speak for the company?

One named spokesperson, with a single update page. No founder threads and no regional executives freestyling Indonesian policy on panels.

What to do this week

Replace “we take this seriously” with one dated control. If you cannot name the control, you are not ready for the Jakarta room.
