Obstacles to Contract Enforcement in Indonesia

《澳大利亚-印度尼西亚全面经济伙伴关系协定》（IA-CEPA）于2020年生效，但在印度尼西亚的外国投资一直未能达到目标，主要原因是人们担心缺乏可靠和公正的司法合同执行。本项目旨在调查为什么可预测和公平的合同执行在印度尼西亚如此难以实现，特别是对外国投资者而言，并通过理论和实证研究解释这种情况的原因。与印尼法院和律师合作，它还旨在支持制定法律和政策改革建议，以帮助解决印尼的商业合同执行问题，并鼓励澳大利亚在印尼投资。

The Australia-Indonesia Comprehensive Economic Partnership (IA-CEPA) came into force in 2020 but foreign investment in Indonesia has consistently failed to meet targets, largely due to concerns about the lack of reliable and just judicial contract enforcement. This project aims to investigate why predictable and fair contract enforcement in Indonesia is so inaccessible, particularly for foreign investors, and, through doctrinal and empirical research, explain the causes of this situation. In partnership with Indonesian courts and lawyers, it also aims to support the development of legal and policy reform proposals that can help resolve Indonesia’s commercial contract enforcement problems and encourage Australian investment there.
