Abstract:
From the Global Intellectual Property Center (GIPC) survey, Indonesia still
considered weak in protecting intellectual property. Then the political direction of law began
to look at the concept of the omnibus law to promote the ease of doing business (EoDB).
Therefore, the purpose of this study is to analyze first, the legal protection issues of famous
brand holders in Act No. 20/2016 through political in- struments and criminal law policies.
Secondly, the concept of the omnibus law as ius constituendum of the Act Related to Indonesian
Intellectual Property in the political perspective of criminal law. The normative method was
chosen because of the object of the study on the principles of law, theories, and doctrines of
jurisprudence. The results of this study show that although Indonesia’s IPR index score
increased in 2019, it’s global ranking declined. This means that despite increases in scores,
In- donesia’s IPR enforcement tends to be stagnant when compared to other countries. The
IPR-related Act can be combined into an omnibus law. The aim is to simplify the laws of
Patents, Trademarks, Copyrights, Industrial Designs, Layout Designs of Integrated Circuits,
and Communal Investment Credit which greatly affect the economy and investment in
Indonesia.
