The Constitutional Court Rejects 4 Lawsuits For The Material Test Of The BUMN Law For Losing Objects

JAKARTA - The Constitutional Court (MK) stated that it could not accept four material test cases against the State-Owned Enterprises (BUMN) Law because the law had been revised and ratified by the President while the case was still in the process of being investigated.

"Declare the petitioners Number 38/PUU-XXIII/2025, Number 43/PUU-XXIII/2025, Number 44/PUU-XXIII/2025, and Number 80/PUU-XXIII/2025 are unacceptable," said Chief Justice of the Constitutional Court Suhartoyo in Jakarta, Antara, Thursday, October 30.

Constitutional Justice Ridwan Mansyur explained that Law Number 1 of 2025 concerning SOEs had been amended by Law Number 16 of 2025 which was passed in early October 2025. After observing the contents of the case, the Constitutional Court found that the articles questioned by the applicants had changed in the revision of the law.

Thus, the four cases were declared missing the object of the petition, because the formulation and substance of the norms tested were not the same as the old BUMN Law.

"Based on the simple, fast, and low-cost judicial principles, the Court with the a quo petition is no longer relevant to be continued and further considered," said Ridwan.

The four cases were previously filed by a number of applicants with different backgrounds.

Case Number 38/PUU-XXIII/2025 was requested by Rega Felix, a lecturer and advocate, who tested several articles such as Article 3H paragraph (2), Article 3X paragraph (1), and Article 4B of the BUMN Law.

Case Number 43/PUU-XXIII/2025 was submitted by three students'A. Fahrur Rozi, Dzakwan Fadhil Putra Kusuma, and Muhammad Jundi Fathi Rizky with a similar point of application.

Meanwhile, Case Number 44/PUU-XXIII/2025 was requested by two citizens, Heri Hasan Basri and Solihin, who considered a number of articles in the BUMN Law to be contrary to the constitution.

The Case Number 80/PUU-XXIII/2025 was submitted by the Indonesia Human Right Committee for Social Justice (IHCS) along with three other nationals, who assessed that a number of provisions in the BUMN Law limited public participation and accountability in BUMN management.

Sebelum keputusan dikeluarkan, MK telah menggelar persidangan hingga tahap mendengarkan keterangan dari DPR dan pemerintah. Dalam sidang pada Senin (23/10), Komisi VI DPR RI bersama Kementerian Hukum dan HAM menjelaskan perubahan dalam UU BUMN terbaru yang disahkan pada Oktober 2025.
