Lagi-lagi, Swasta Dirundung Ketidakpastian Hukum dan Kebijakan
Pelaku usaha, termasuk investor AS, masih menghadapi ketidakpastian hukum dan kebijakan di Indonesia, terutama terkait regulasi impor komponen bahan baku, implementasi aturan halal BPJPH Nomor 4 Tahun 2026, serta sulitnya mendapatkan komunikasi dari regulator. Kondisi ini, ditambah tren global populisme dan proteksionisme, berisiko membuat investor beralih ke negara lain yang lebih pasti hukum dan kemudahan usahanya. Padahal, Indonesia membutuhkan investasi langsung untuk penciptaan lapangan kerja dan pertumbuhan ekonomi, sehingga kepastian hukum dan komunikasi kebijakan menjadi krusial.
