THE ATTITUDINAL MEANING BUILT BY KONDE.CO REGARDING THE RATIFICATION OF CHEMICAL CASTRATION PENALTY

The rise of sexual violence against women and children encourages the government to establish Government Regulation (Peraturan Pemerintah) hereafter (PP) number 70 of 2020, which contains the application of the chemical castration penalty for the offenders of sexual violence. This regulation causes pros and cons from the various parties, including women and children's observer community, selected in this case Konde.co. This study aims to discuss the Attitude or position built by Konde.co toward the Government Regulation (PP) ratification concerning the chemical castration penalty for the sexual violence offenders. This research uses a qualitative approach, especially discourse analysis. The discourse analysis in this research uses the appraisal theory, which studies the Attitude system explicitly The result of this research shows that the Attitude that appears in the text is generally negative. Furthermore, the Attitude aspect with the highest frequency is negative judgement. The negative Attitude refers to the incompatibility and inability of the chemical castration penalty in overcoming the sexual violence problem in Indonesia. The chemical castration penalty has negative impacts, such as exacerbating sexual violence in Indonesia in the future, disturbing, like an inclement regulation, and violating human rights. The positive Attitude refers to the PP’s capacity for the chemical castration penalty of the sexual violence offenders in upholding the rights of the underprivileged.

Introduction
The sexual violence case in Indonesia is still high, the sexual violence case mainly occured to women and children, registered in 2020, raised from the years before. Based on the Women's National Commission (Komnas Perempuan) annual record in 2020, 431.471 cases of violence against women registered are reported and handled, this number of cases raised to 6% from the year before. The Women's National Commission (Komnas Perempuan) also recorded that in 12 years, the violence against women raised to 792%, which means the violence against women in Indonesia in 12 years increased almost 8 times (Komnas Perempuan, 2020). According to the data from the Ministry of Women Empowerment and Children Protection (Kementerian Pemberdayaan Perempuan dan Perlindungan Anak), from the 1st January to 19th June 2020, there were reported 3.087 cases of violence against children, including 852 physical violence cases, 768 physicist violence cases, and 1.848 sexual violence cases (Kementerian PPPA, 2020).
To overcome this high number of sexual violence cases, the government established Government Regulation (Peraturan Pemerintah) hereafter (PP) Number 70 concerning procedures for implementing chemical castration, installing electronic detection devices, rehabilitation, and announcing the identity of offenders of sexual violence against children. The President signed this PP on December 7, 2020 (Dharmastuti in detik.com, 2021). The enactment of the PP related to chemical castration for offenders of sexual violence has drawn pros and cons from various parties, including women's activists and observers of women and children's issues. One of them is Konde.co. Konde.co is a media that focuses on women and minorities perspectives, and the work scope is in publishing articles on the website, producing a movie or video, and giving the public information through social media, such as Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter, regarding women and minorities' problems (Konde.co, n.d.). Konde.co formed in 2016 that was managed by individuals who have the same perspective in perceiving women and minorities. Konde.co's establishment purposes to manage public space from the perspective of women and minorities as part of the critical power awareness (Konde.co, n.d.). On its website, many articles highlight various problems of women and minorities with critical views, including the sexual violence issues that are rife against women and children.
Regarding the issue that is currently as a public discussion, namely the ratification of the Government Regulation (PP) on chemical castration procedures for sexual offenders, Konde.co as a media that is focused on the perspectives of women and minorities, also highlighted this case, which can be seen through the posting articles on its official website. It was interesting to see Konde.co' Attitude as a media that moved on a critical view of women and minorities towards the ratification of the PP on chemical castration for offenders of sexual violence. Linguistically, to see Konde.co's Attitude, this case could be studied through appraisal theory.
The appraisal is a framework for analyzing the interpersonal systems in semantic discourse from systemic functional linguistics (Martin & White, 2005). Pérez (2019) states that the appraisal system is a part of the linguistic analysis model in systemic linguistics. The language is described as a whole network of interconnected systems and allows speakers to express meaning. Appraisal theory is the development of Halliday's Functional Grammar theory of interpersonal meaning. This appraisal theory is an analytical device within the scope of discourse analysis that emphasizes the readers' position of a text with three main domains, which are (1) engagement, (2) Attitude, and (3) graduation, each of which becomes a single unit to analyze interpersonal meaning in one text (Martin & White, 2005). Stosic (2021) mentions the benefits of using appraisal in discourse analysis based on the fact that, (1) the appraisal is a well-established analytical framework (has a systematic annotation scheme) that is included in the broader SFL theory to detail the interrelationships between texts and social contexts, (2) Aspects of engagement, Attitude, and graduation can be adjusted in terms of the analysis purpose, (3) the appraisal can distinguish between implicit and explicit Attitudes.
This research focuses on the appraisal system, especially the Attitude aspect on Konde.co concerning the Government Regulation (PP) ratification Number 70 of 2020 regarding the implementation of chemical castration for the sexual violence' offenders. This research aims to describe the Attitude or position built by Konde.co towards the ratification of the chemical castration penalty for the sexual violence offenders. The benefit of this research can be to see the perspective of the media or community of women and minorities observers toward government policies related to chemical castration for the sexual violence' offenders. This research can also contribute to considering the government in passing regulations regarding the punishment for sexual violence offenders by considering the perspectives of women and minorities.

Literature Review
The appraisal system analysis in this research refers to Martin & White (2005), focusing on the Attitude aspect. Martin & White (2005) mentions that Attitude describes how a writer or speaker evaluates something, including the expression of the speaker's/writer's feelings, emotional reactions, an assessment of a person's Attitude and evaluation of something. This assessment is both positive and negative. Attitude consists of three aspects, namely, affect, judgement, and appreciation (Martin & White, 2005). Affect relates to emotional responses towards something, such as sadness, joy, hatred, etc. Affect consists of un/happiness, in/security, and dis/satisfaction (Martin & White, 2005). The judgement relates to positive or negative judgments, such as praising, criticizing, blaming, or admiring (Martin & White, 2005). Judgment is divided into five aspects: normality, capacity, tenacity, veracity, and propriety. Appreciation relates to the assessment of natural phenomena that are aesthetic. Appreciation is divided into reaction, composition, and valuation (Martin & White, 2005)).
Previously, Indrayani (2019) had performed research related to the appraisal system on the discourse of sexual violence, which examined victims of sexual harassment represented in news texts and readers' Attitudes in responding to the news text. The analysis used transitivity to see the representation of sexual harassment victims in the text, appraisal analysis, mainly on the Attitude aspect, to see the reader's Attitude, and reception analysis to see the reader's acceptance. The research results showed the sexual harassment victims described by Detik.com, especially on the news of sexual harassment by Baiq Nuril, declared as a victim of verbal abuse. Attitudes that are appeared in the reader's comment box tended to show negative judgment. The reception that was found most in the reader's comment box was the negotiated position. Zamzuardi & Syahrul (2019) had also performed research regarding the sexual violence discourse on the news with a critical discourse analysis approach of Sara Mills, a model. The findings revealed that women were visually dominant in the news while underrepresented in terms of meaning. Suprihatin and Lestari (2019) also conducted research related to the discourse of sexual violence in the news, especially on Tirto.id with a critical discourse analysis approach of Norman Fairclough, a model. The results showed that based on lexical and grammatical textual analysis, Tirto.id used supportive vocabulary towards victims and survivors of sexual violence and chose vocabulary with negative connotations aimed at the sexual violence offenders. Tirto.id also used active sentences to emphasize the presence of sexual violence actors from the text.
The study in this research differs from the previous ones in twofold. First it focuses on the news outlet specifically engaged in women and minorities perspectives. Secondly, the issue is to do with the offenders instead of the victims. That is the legalization of the use of a chemical castration penalty for sexual violence offenders. This heated topic is currently a public concern and has raised pros and cons in the public sphere.

In addition, the data are recorded by using Microsoft Word and the annotation on the data performed based on the aspects of the appraisal device, especially on the Attitude aspect, which afterward, the data is transferred into a txt form and inputted into the data processing device.
This research uses the linguistics corpus method in processing the data. The linguistics corpus method implicates text collection analysis that saves electronically in a large number, assisted by computer software (Baker, 2010). This research uses LancsBox software. LancsBox used to be a data processing device in this research since this software provides convenience in identifying the annotated text. Furthermore, the features provided can be used to observe the frequency of the data shown, the context of use, and data visualization. This frequency calculation is used to compute the data occurrences percentage and the subappraisal Attitude tendency that appears in the data, leading to a description of the use Attitude pattern at Konde.co regarding the (PP) of chemical castration approval.
