Nasir said that the ultimatum was made following the issuance of government regulation in lieu of law no. 2/2017 on Mass Organizations, under which the government disbands the HTI for adopting the caliphate, an ideology that contravenes the Pancasila.
A meeting with university rectors on lecturers’ involvement in the HTI will be held today at the Education Ministry office in Senayan.
