Appreciation to all stakeholders who assisted EQUIPYouth Program in Batam 2016 - 2017

The Issuance of Regulation of the Indonesia Supreme Court No. 13/2016 (Peraturan Mahkamah Agung or PERMA 13/2016) on December 2016 marks an important milestone in the fight against corruption in Indonesia. PERMA 13/2016 provides operating procedures for the judges when dealing with cases involving corporate criminal offences. PERMA 13/2016 explicitly requires corporations to take active steps to prevent a crime, as inaction leading to a crime can lead to prosecution. This should be a call for corporations to start looking into their internal policies to make sure that they have a set of company policies in place to deal with corporate crimes, so that they may limit their exposure to being entangled in a crime.

Indonesia Business Links (IBL) with several organisations, such as Aliansi Desa Sejahtera and AKVO, are

involving in Empowering Youth for Work Program. It is a collaborative youth economic empowerment which

coordinated by OXFAM.The Empower Youth for Work (EYFW) project in Indonesia aims to reduce poverty in rural coastal areas that are prone to the impact of climate change, by empowering youth (especially young women) to secure viable employment and entrepreneurship opportunities.

Surabaya, as the capital of East Java province, currently becomes a major economic growth point in Indonesia. Promoting business practices with integrity to private sectors in Surabaya is one of the important steps to strengthen the economy of Indonesia. Keep raising issues regarding The Issuance of Regulation of the Indonesia Supreme Court No. 13/2016 (Peraturan Mahkamah Agung or PERMA 13/2016), IBL conducted Indonesia Integrity Initiative Forum 2017 Surabaya on October 10th 2017 at Surabaya, to provide a dialogue forum for private sectors about business integrity practices. In addition, the forum is also conducted to introduce Indonesia Integrity Initiative as one of the collective action of private sector to strengthen business integrity as well as invite private sector to get involved in the collective initiative. This forum was attended by 32 people from 27 different institutions.

BUSINESS EXECUTIVE BRIEFING IMPLICATION OF PERMA 13/2016 ON CORPORATE CRIMINAL LIABILITY TO THE BUSINESS

INDONESIA INTEGRITY INITIATIVE FORUM 2017 STRENGTHENING LOCAL ECONOMY THROUGH IMPLEMENTATION OF BUSINESS INTEGRITY

Mr. Laode M. Syarif, Commisioner of Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK),told history the journey of PERMA 13/2016

On October 5th 2017, Indonesia Business Links organized Business Executive Briefing in Jakarta with theme

“Implication of PERMA 13/2016 on Corporate Criminal Liability to Business”. The objective is to provide updated

information regarding the issuance of PERMA 13/2016, discuss the consequence of this regulation and gather

feedbacks from business leaders and executives on how business will respond to the implication constructively.

From this discussion, found that in addition to good internal system, publication system should also be particular

concern, so that when law enforcement was doing an audit, the company already has a good mitigation system. It is

hoped that there will be a synchronization and harmonization between law enforcers, so that "multiple interpretations"

in the implementation of corporations as offenders in legal subject can be avoided. In addition, the key avoids

corporate criminal liability in Indonesia is to ensure that no employee or stakeholder takes a bribe for the benefit of the

corporation, because although the legal system or regulation is sound and clear, still must be supported by human

resources with integrity.

The discussion was triggered by three distinguished panelist speakers, Mr. Laode M. Syarif as Commissioner of

Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK), Mr. Heru Prasetyo as Chairman, Board of Patrons, Indonesia Business

Links, and Mrs. Yanti Triwadiantini as Chair, ASEAN CSR Network. This discussion was moderated by Mr. Hendronoto

Soesabdo from Hadiputranto Hadinoto & Partners.

Head of One Stop Service (PTSP) Surabaya, Eko Agus Supiadi Sapoetro explained various initiatives that have been undertaken by Surabaya local government to improve the culture of integrity in doing business, such as Surabaya Single Window. In terms of private sector business actors, Deputy Regional Compliance Officer PT. Siemens Indonesia, Mr. Arif Panggiharso, shared about Siemens's experiences in dealing with bribery scandals and how Siemens rose, build and strengthen its integrity practices. Director of PT. Bumi Irsa Prakarsa, Mr. Andira Reoputra completes the dialogue by giving his experience as a local businessman in Surabaya. The dialogue session was followed by a DUKU workshop delivered by Mr. Barliana Amin from Alliance for Integrity. The workshop was conducted with the aim of providing a point of view related to various types of corruption, as well as how the business world can avoid the risk of corruption itself. From discussions and business integrity surveys, licensing and procurement still occupy the top positions as areas that are vulnerable to unethical conduct. The government is following up on this by simplifying the licensing system through PTSP and the procurement system openness through electronic procurement. However, it should be noted that the government must maintain a balance between the ease of the licensing process and the quality of its output.
