Bima Arya To Bahlil: There Is A Potential For Tsunami Regulation In The Derivative Rules Of The Copyright Law

JAKARTA - The Association of City Governments throughout Indonesia (APEKSI) conveyed their views on the Copyright Work law to the Minister of Investment Bahlil Lahadalia. Apeksi Chairman and Mayor of Bogor Bima Arya said the local government is worried that the implementation of this broom law will be far from expected.

Bima said, the regional heads are worried that there will be many problems that will face the region. Therefore, from the beginning the presence of this broom law has been criticized. Because, there is the potential for decentralization and hyper-regulation, because it is precisely its derivatives that make it complicated and so on.

Furthermore, Bima said decentralization will make bahlil's already very heavy task become more crowded. This is because it becomes the central point of investment licensing to the regions. According to Bima, this condition will give rise to the potential of regulatory tsunami.

"I often tell you that this tsunami regulation we noted there are at least 47 PP of candy that must be lowered it is not easy. The problem is friends in the area and we see when candy is a bit slow, then it's not the way. Many things so the goods can not move," Bima told Bahlil in a discussion BKPM, Monday, May 10.

Bima said, instead of facilitating licensing, the rules derived from the Copyright Act actually slow down the licensing process. In fact, it makes the local government's move stutter.

"The Copyright Act has the potential to eliminate the area parking levy, in Cipta Kerja will be incentivized but also not clear where the rules are," he explained.

Moreover, bima said, when President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) set a national economic growth target this year in the positive zone, the government found it difficult to realize it because the derivatives of the Copyright Work Law did not support.

"Now when the president delivers a positive economic target we are worried because initially the work was designed to boost economic growth and increase investment. Once targeted again for economic recovery let alone positive will be added weight," he said.

Not only that, said Bima, the discourse of applying online single submission (OSS) or integrated online licensing will make the city that has advanced the licensing process such as Bogor, even suffered setbacks.

"So for the city of Bogor and other cities that have advanced, this is like retreating. We Bogor licensing is 14 days, with the integration of the system can even be 28 days," he said.
