BANDUNG - The dispute over the management of the West Java Chamber of Commerce has entered the green table. The Chairman of the West Java Chamber of Commerce version of Muprov Bandung, Nizar Sungkar, sued the Chairman of the Indonesian Chamber of Commerce Anindya Bakrie and a number of other parties to the Bandung District Court.
The reading of the lawsuit was held on Thursday, June 4. The agenda was short, about 15 minutes. The lawsuit material was considered to have been read because the defendants were considered to have known the main issue.
The panel of judges, headed by Riyanto Alosyus, examined the completeness of the lawsuit file. After the file was declared complete, the judge gave the defendants two weeks to submit an answer on June 18.
In his lawsuit, Nizar demanded material and immaterial losses. For immaterial losses, he demanded compensation of Rp. 20 billion.
The dispute stems from the dualism of the Provincial Consultative Meeting or Muprov of the West Java Chamber of Commerce on September 24, 2025. There is a Muprov in Bogor that produces Almer Faiq Rusydi. On the same day, there was a Muprov at the Grand Preanger Hotel Bandung which chose Nizar Sungkar.
Nizar sued because the Indonesian Chamber of Commerce and Industry confirmed Almer as the Chairman of the West Java Chamber of Commerce. According to Nizar and his lawyer, he should have been confirmed because he judged the Muprov Bandung process to be in accordance with the AD/ART and the regulations of the Kadin organization.
The lawsuit targets three groups. The first group is the Indonesian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (Kadin) managers, including Anindya Bakrie, Erwin Aksa, Taufan Eko Nugroho, and Doddy Ahmad Firdaus.
The second group is the party that is said to be related to the Muprov Kadin West Java committee. Among them are Agung Suryamal, Zoelkifli M Adam, Herman Muhtar, Bambang Rochadi, Deden Hidayat, Widyanto Saputro, Ali Sa'id, Hamzah Rahayana, Dedi Sukardan, Barkah Hidayat, and Iwan Gunawan.
The third group is Almer Faiq Rusydi, Chairman of the West Java Chamber of Commerce version of Muprov Bogor.
In the grounds of the lawsuit, Nizar said that Muprov VIII Kadin West Java at the Grand Preanger Hotel Bandung was held by the interim management or caretaker. The caretaker was formed by the Indonesian Chamber of Commerce through a decision letter dated April 30, 2025.
On this basis, the Nizar camp considers the Muprov Bandung to have a legal basis. After being elected, Nizar and the formator team are said to have drafted the management of the West Java Chamber of Commerce for the 2025-2030 term and submitted it to the Indonesian Chamber of Commerce on October 9, 2025 for ratification.
However, according to Nizar's party, the request for confirmation was not granted. The Indonesian Chamber of Commerce and Industry then appointed Almer as the Chairman of the West Java Chamber of Commerce on November 27, 2025 in Cirebon.
On the other hand, Muprov Bogor has also been sued by two regional Kadin, namely Garut and Indramayu, to the South Jakarta District Court because it was considered to have violated AD/ART.
This matter is important because it concerns the legitimacy of the leadership of the West Java Chamber of Commerce. Not only about who sits in the chair of the chairman, but also who is considered legitimate to represent the West Java business world in the next five years.
