Job Creation - a much anticipated piece of Indonesian legislation that has been

long awaited by various stakeholders, including Indonesian business owners who

are seeking a more business-friendly environment to boost Indonesian economic

growth and investment. The primary purpose of the Omnibus Law is to create

2. employment;
3. facilities, protection, and empowerment of cooperatives as well as micro, small

and medium enterprises;

4. ease of doing business;

5. research and innovation support;

6. land acquisition;

7. economic zone;

8. central government investment and acceleration of national strategic projects;

9. government administration implementation to support job creation; and

10. imposition of sanctions.

 

Omnibus Law differentiates business risks into 3 (three) categories, as follows:
