ON AMENDMENT OF LA \VNO. 6 OF 1982 ON COPYRIGI-IT 
P.s.A.M8\TOEDBYLAWNO. 70F 1987 
GENERAL 
The decree of People's Consultative Assembly of the 
Republic of Indonesia NO.IIfl\llPRfl993 on the Guidelines of State 
Policy stipulates, among others: that world's development which 
brings opportunities capable of supporting and increasing the 
grmvth of national development should be employed to the most. 
In line with the direction of the Guidelines of State Policy, 
therefore, all global developments, changes, and inclinations that 
might presumabJy influence the National Stability and the 
achievement of national objectives need to be carefully observed, 
in order to be able to take the anticipating steps. 
One of the significant and closely monitored 
developments during the last decade, which is still going to be the 
inclination in the future, is the ever gro\ving flow of globalization 
in social life, economy, culture and in other sides of life. In the 
field of trade, the development of: in particular, infonn~tion 
technology and transportation has rapidly driven activities in this 
sector and has even merged the world into a single common 
market. Having considered such facts and inclinations, it is then 
quite reasonable when there is an urge toward regulating for a 
more appropriate legal protection. Moreover, there is a number of 
countries which are getting more relying their economic and 
trading activities on products being a result of human 
intellectuals, such as \vorks in the field of science, arts and 
literature. IP/N/lIIDN/CIl 
Page 30 
The'General Agreement on Tariff and Trade (GATT) as a 
multilateral agreement on trade basically aimcd to crcate a free 
trade and equal treatment as well as 10 help create economic 
growth and progress, in order to achieve human prosperity. 
In the framework of the Agreement, in April 1994 in 
Marakesh, Morocco, a package of trade negotiation deals has 
been agreed, and it became the most comprehensive agreement 
GATT has ever achieved. The negotiation which had begun in 
1986 in Punta del Estc, Uruguay, and known as Uruguay Round 
contains, among othcrs, thc Agreement on Trade Related ASjJccts 
of Intellectual Property Rights (TIUPS), 
The TRIPS Agreement established norms and standards of 
protection for human intellectuals and laid the international 
agreement on Intellectual Property Rights as its foundatio~. In 
addition; the agreement also regulates s~rict implementing rules of 
legal enforcement in 'the field of Intellectual Property Rights, 
As a signatory to the Uruguay Round Agreement 
Indonesia has ratified the agreement package \vith Law No. 7 of 
1994 concerning the Ratification of the Agreement Establishing 
the World Trade Organization. In line with the policy, to support 
national development activities, particularly after considering the 
various changes and development, Indonesia, which had adopted 
a national Copyright Law since 1982 which was then amended 
with Law No. 7 of 1987, views that it is necessary to make 
perfection on the Law concerned. 
In addition to the perfection of some provisions considered 
as providing inadequate legal protection on Authors, it is also 
considered necessary to make adjustment to conform to the 
TRIPS Agreement. The goal is to eliminate various barriers, in 
partic~lar, to facilitate efforts that promote the economic growth 
as well as national and international trade. 
With such background and considerations, therefore, the 
general area and course of amendment on Law No. 6 of 1982 as IP/N/lIIDN/C/1 
Page 31 
amended with Law No. 7 of 1987 concerning Copyrights covers, 
among others: 
1. Perfection 
In this Law, the perfection covers the proVlslons 
concerning the protection on works ofwhich the Authors 
are unknown, exceptiorial provision c'oncerillng the 
infringement of. copyrights, the tenn of protection of 
works, right and authority to bring lawsuit, and provisions 
conceming Civil Servant lnvestigator (PPNS). 
2. Addition 
Some changes to add provisions concerning: 
a. Rental Rights of the holder of copyrights concerning 
video records, movies, and computer programs; 
b. Neighboring Rights which cover protection, for 
performers, phonogram producers, and broadcasting 
agency; and 
c. copyright license 
ARTICLE BY ARTICLE 
Figure 1 
The amendment on provision of Article 1 figure 2 i~ 
meant to affirm the required element of originality of work 
to qualify for copyright protection. A work has to be in a 
distinctive form and shows the originality as a creation of 
person based on ability ~md creativity of a personal nature. 
!lIn a distinctive form" means that the work has to be 
completely realized, so that it is capable of being seen, 
heard or read. To include in the definition of "capable of 
being readl( is Braille reading. Since ~ work has to be in a 
distinctive form, the protection of copyright shall not then IP/N/1/IDN/CIl 
Page 32 
be granted to a mere idea:'In accordance with 'this concept, 
an idea does not basically qualify for a: c'opyright 
protection because an idea has no fonn that 'enables it to 
be seen, heard or read. The addition of. provisions 
concerning the definition of performer, phonogram 
producer,arid broadcasti'ng agency is necessary in relation 
t~ the add'ition of new pro,-:isions concerning Neighboring 
~ghts. In the definition of performer, the mentioning of 
actor, singer, mu~ician, and dancer is to show the 
professions of performers, which are basically only to 
mention some of those whose activities ere to perform, 
show, act, sing, communicate, recite, or play a piece of 
work. 
Meanwhile, the definition of phonogram producers 
includes those who carry out activities of direct recording 
on objects which produce voice or sound, including those 
who record 'voice ,or sound in different musical 
arrangements, and not just mUltiply or reproduce existing 
recordings. As of the meaning of "broadcasting works!1 in 
the definition of "broadcasting organizationN covers, 
among others, pictures or pictures and voice. The 
requirement that it should take the form of legal body only 
applies to Private Br6adcasting Organization. 
Furthermore, see the elucidation of the previous 
Article 1. 
Figure 2 
This amendment is meant to affirm the recognition on 
the existence of rights belonging to Authors or copyright 
holders of cinematographic works and computer 
programs, in the form of rights to prevent or to give 
consent to the commercial rental of cinematographic 
works or computer programs. 
Similar rights may apply to producers of ph ono grams. IP /Nil IIDN/C!1 
Page 33 
Furthermore, see the elucidation of the prevIOus 
Article 2. 
The addition of provision in paragraph (1) A is meant 
to clarify the principle that the copyright on a work made 
by a person on work order, for instance, within a 
Government office, unless othen;vise agreed, is held by the 
office concerned, as the party who gave the job order. This 
provision does not prejudice the right .of the person who 
makes the work, as the Author, if such work is used 
beyond the official rel ationship. Meanwhile, the 
amendment in paragraph (2) is meant to clarify the 
existence of copyrights on works made beyond an official 
service or works made on a work order. This means that 
the work is made within a "\\lork service in private sector or 
is made on a work order between a private institution and 
another party or between individuals. 
Furthermore, see the elucidation of the previous 
Article 8. 
Figure 4 
This amendment is meant to affirm the status of 
copyright in the event that tl1e author of a work is 
unknown and the work is not or not yet published in its 
appropriate form. For example, in the case of a written 
work or music, the work has not been published in the 
form of book or has not been recorded. In that case, to 
protect the rights of the Author, the State holds the 
copyright for the Author. In the event that the work is in 
the form of a written work and has been published, then 
the publisher holds the copyright on such work. 
A publisher is also deemed as holding the .copyright of 
a work that is published under a pseudonym of the Author. 
Therefore, upon a published work of which the Author is IP/N/l/IDN/CIl 
Page 34 
unknown or the name printed on it is only a pseudonym, 
the publisher whose. name appears on the work and which, 
based on presented evidence, is the first publishing the 
work, represents the Author.. However, this does not apply 
when the Author subsequently n;veals his identity and is 
able to proof that he is the Author of the work. 
Furthermore, see the elucidation of the previous 
P"rticle 10 A. 
Figure 5 
This amendment is actually only to re-arrange the 
order of kinds of works within the scope of copyright by 
classifying them according to the kinds and nature of the 
works. Moreover, some kinds of works need an 
explanation as follow: 
A typographical arrangement means the art or 
aesthetic aspect of the writing arrangement and shape of a 
written work. This is to include the format, decoration, 
color, and arrangement or layout of letters that as a totality 
constitutes a distinctive fOnTI. As of drawings cover, 
among others, technical drawings, patterns, diagrams, 
sketches, logos, and shapes of characters. A collage is an 
artistic composition. made of various materials, such as 
clothes, paper, wood attached on the surface of a picture. 
As of applied art, it is basically handcrafting art that 
can be produced in great numbers. For example, jewels or 
accessories, furniture, decorative paper or wall 
ornamentals, and clothes design. Visual aids that are 
granted protection are devices for the' purpose of science, 
including education. 
Architecture includes construction art, miniatures or 
construction models. Batik., as an artwork, is granted 
protection by this Law as a distinct work. In this Law 
"Batikll means a new creation which is not a traditional or 
contemporary one. Such works are granted protection IP/N/llIDN/CIl 
Page 35 
because they have artIstIc values, on the' creation of 
patterns) dra\vings' as ' well· 'as "color' composition, The 
protection on traditional batiks is granted against any 
foreign party or party from abroad. The term of protection 
on 'traditional: 'batik works, such as Parang Rusak, 
Sidomuk.'ii; Truntum and others have elapsed and become 
public 'domain. Therefore, 'basically, 'Indonesian nationals 
are free to use them. Furthemlore,' cinematographic work 
as a communication medium of moving images and voices 
is to include documentary films) news; reportage, or 
movies made on scenario and cartoon movies, 
Cinematographic works may be made on celluloid tape, 
video tape, video disc, and or other media which make 
them possible to be shown at movie theatre, on wide 
screen? or television. 
An anthology inCludes works in the form of book of 
which the content is a compilation of assorted written 
works, collection of assorted songs recorded in a single 
cassette, or composition of assorted choreographs. 
Figure 6 
The amendment in this Article is made by omitting the 
10 percents limitation in the provision con~erning the use 
that is not considered as a copyright infringement. The 
omission is necessary because it is difficult to apply a 
quantitative measure to establish an infringement. In this 
case, a qualitative measure would be more appropriate. 
For instance, taking the most important or distinctive part 
or distinctive feature of the work, even though it does not 
amount to 10 percents. Such use substantively qualifies an 
infringement of copyrights. Furthermore, the use of 
copyright does not constitute an infringement if such use 
clearly mentions the source, whereas the use itself is 
limited for a non-commercial pUrPose~ including social 
activities, For instance, activities in the scope of IP INlllIDN/C/l 
Page 36 
education, research and development, the use in the scope 
of science is precluded provided that' it does not harm the 
norin'al interests of the Author. To include within this 
definition is taking the excerpt of a work to be used in a 
free-of-charge show or performance. On taking excerpt of 
a written work, the full identity of the source work has to 
be mentioned. It means that it has to mention at least the 
name of the A~tho[) the title or name of the work, and the 
name of the publisher, if any. The measure of normal 
interests of an Author has to be appraised by the rights of 
the Author, in particular, to enjoy economic benefit from 
the work concerned. If a dispute emerges, the issue shall 
be settled by a decision of the Court. 
Besides that, the amendment is also made on the 
nistricti,on for reproducing works other than computer 
program. The purpose is to affirm that the reproduction of 
a work may not exceed the needed number of copies as to 
meet the purpose of reproducing the work concerned. In 
relation to computer program, it ,is necessary to assert that 
the owner of this kjnd of work may only make one copy of 
the work, used solely as a reserve of the work concerned. 
This provision also applies to public libraries, science or 
edu'cation institutions and documentation centers, used 
solely for conducting their activities. 
Furthermore, see the elucidation of the previous 
Article 14. 
Figure 7 
The amendment is meant to conform to the 
amendment made on provision of Article 11 that classifies 
the kinds of works based on fonn and field of works, The 
rest is the classification of kinds of works based on the 
term of protection. 
Furthermore, see the elucidation of the previous 
Article 26. Figure 8 
See the elucida:ion of Figure 7. 
Figure 9 IPlNll/IDN/C/l 
Page 37 
The addition of new provision here is to clarify the 
provision concerning the protection period 'of copyright 
that is held by the State. By principle, a work of which the 
copyTight is held by the State under Article 10 paragraph 
(2) letter b shall be granted an unlimited period of 
protection, Meanwhile, upon a' work the copyright of 
which is exerc)sed by the State under .Article 10 A 
paragraph (1) shall be· granted protection for 50 (fifty) 
years as from the. work is known by members of the 
public, This provision applies to a work of which the 
Author is absolutely unknown. If the identity of the 
Author is subsequently revealed, or the Author himself 
subsequently discloses his identity within a period of 50 
(fifty) years after the work has been knovm by the public, 
then the provision of Article 26 applies. This means that 
the protection period continues for 50 (fifty) years after 
the death of the Author. 
Upon works of which the copyrights are held by the 
publishers in pursuant of Arti,cle 10 A paragraph (2), the 
protection period is for 50 (fifty) years from the first time 
the work was published. 
Figure 10 
The new provision of Article 28A here is 'meant to 
affirm that the right cif an Author to have his name or 
identity mentioned including his pseudonym be 'endless or 
for an unlimited period of protection. Meanwhile, the 
protection period for an Author against any action by 
another party to make any change upon 'his work is of the 
same period of protection as on the work itself. IPIN/lfIDN/C/l 
Page 38 
The provision of Article 28B which affirms the date of 
1 January as the base to compute the protectioll period or Cl 
copyright is merely to ease' in computing the end of 
protection. The starting point is 1 January of the following 
or current year after the work is made eligible to the 
public, known to the public, published or after the death of 
the Author. 
This is an adjus~ment to conform to the international 
agreement applicable to copyrights. 
This method of computation does not prejudice the 
principle that the computation of the protection period 
shall be based on the time the work is created, in the event 
that the actual date is clearly known. 
An example of the application: a cinematographic 
work that was published for the first time on 20 July 1995 
will be protected 'from 20 July 1995 until 31 December 
2045. 
Figure 11 
The addition 9f a' new Chapter is meant to provide a 
legal foundation for licensing practices in the fIeld of 
copyrights, Basically, the nature of a licensing agreement 
is only an authorization or conferring of rights set up in a 
deed of agreement, for certain period of time under certain 
conditions, to enjoy the economic benefit of a work 
protected by copyright. A licensing agreement is not 
usually closed as an exclusive agreement. This means that 
the holder of copyright still maintain his right to exercise 
the copyright or to give a similar license to a third party. A 
licensing agreement may also be closed as an exclusive 
one, meaning that the right is exclusively given solely to 
the licensee. An exclusive license is capable of being 
abused to monopolize the market, or to eliminate the 
healthy competition in the market. As an example, such 
thing may happen when a licensee does not use JP/N/l/IDN/C/l 
Page 39 
deliberately or exploit the licensed work. Such action is 
taken in order to control the . market through'the use' of 
another product or product 'of his own. Such method 
clearly will impair the right of the Author and even may 
hamper the growth of Indonesian economy.' Considering 
such possibility, therefore,' this Law lays down a directive 
that a 'license may be exercised provided it does not cause 
detrimental effect on the economy of Indonesia. 
Furthermore, it is also asserted that ,to effect 'legal 
consequences against a third party, a licensing agreement 
has to be recorded at the Cop)1ight Office. 
Figure 12 
The amendment of A.l1ic1e 42 paragraph (1) is meant 
to simplify the wordings and to affirm the right of an 
Author to claim for indemnity if there is an infringement 
of copyright. , 
Ifa confiscation is requested as referred to in this 
paragraph, it has to be carried out in pursuant to the 
provisions concerning forfeiting of movable goods as 
regulated in Law of Civil Proceedings. 
With this amendment, thus, the provisions of the 
previous Article 43 paragraph (2) are not needed anymore. 
The provision 'of Article 43 paragraph (1) become,s the 
new Article 43 with amendment. 
Moreover; the addition of new provision dtfsignated as 
Article 43A is meant to affirm the right of an Author or his 
beneficiary to claim for indemnity against any violation 'of 
the provision in Article 24, that is the provision 
concerning the moral right of an Author. 
The addition of provision in Article 43B is actually an 
improvement and to remove the content of the previous 
Article 42 paragraph (3). 
Figure 13 
The addition of a new Chapter is meant provide a legal 
foundation for rights related to copyrights known as JP/N/1/IDN/C/1 
Page 40 
Neighboring Rights. 'The. -owner, of s~ch ,,rightsjrtdudes 
peif9rmers "who creat.ed· perfQrmanGes;, producers of 
phonogram who produ~e phonogram,s; and broadcasting 
org34izations. which ,produce" broadc9-sting ,wotks. In 
addidon to provisions cOI?cerning the content of the' rights, 
',it ,aJso sets out the .term of protection and other provisions 
ap'piica~le to those rights. 
T~e legc.l san'?tions applicable against infringement of 
these ,rights are 'of the same sanctions as those applicable 
ag~ins~ the .infringement of copyright. This' is taken upon 
considerations that the po'ssible"economical daniage and 
other losses arising from infringement of these rights are 
basically the same as of against copyright. 
Figure 14 
The amendment on Article 45 here is basicaUy, meant 
to provide,:options to the Court ,to decide whether or not 
the goods :resulting from a copyright 'infringement which 
:has" been forfeited shall be ',seized for the State and 
subsequently destroyed or delivered to the lawful holder of 
the ·'copyright. These' options enable the holder of 
copyright to purs'ue'legal actions in order to acquire the 
forfeited go'ods:is'referre'ct to: in Article 42, 
From the ,angle of 'Law concerning Criminal 
Proceedings, this principle is still in line with provision in 
Article 46 of the Law (KUHAP). 
Figure 15 
This amendment is made to clarjfy the authority of 
Civil Servant Investigator and the, procedures on the 
implementation of the task as well as his inter-relation 
with Investigator of the State Police of the Republic, Qf 
Indonesia and the Public Prosecutor. 
A clear provision regarding investigation is important 
for investigative apparatus in carrying out their task~, IPINIlIIDN/CI1 
Page 41 
Therefore, .it is necessary to clarify that even though Civil 
Servant Investigators within the Ministry, of. which the 
task' and responsibility 'lnc'lude~ th'e management of 
copyrights, are vested with a special authority to be an 
investigator, this does not eliminate the' function of 
Investigator of the State Police .of the Republic of 
Indonesia as the 1'viain Investigator. In carrying out their 
tasks, Civil Servant Investigators are under the co­
ordination and supervision of Investigators of the State 
Police of the Republic of Indonesia. Therefore, during the 
process of an investigation a Civil Servant Investigator 
needs to consult with Investigators of the State Police of 
the Republic of Indonesia. It is in this stage of 
investigation that Investigators of the State Police of the 
Republic of Indonesia givf: technical directions concerning 
the form2.t and the coment ofDted of Invtstigation and at 
the same time check the truth of the content of the Deed. 
After the il1\'esti£!ation is over. thc,result of inves:i£!ation 
~ '.' -
shall bc: submitted by the Civil servant InveSTigator 10 the 
In\'estigator of the State Police of the Republic of 
lndonesia, who in turns shaH proceed it immediately to the 
Pub I ic Prosecutor. This is in accordance with the principle 
laid down in Article 6, .Article 7 and Article 107 of Law 
No 8 of 1981 concerning Criminal Proceedings. 
Bearing in mind this principle, thus the word "through" 
in paragraph (4) is not necessarily understood as statirig 
that Investigator of the State Police of the Republic of 
Indonesia mayor shall undertake reinvestigation. For, any 
technical assistance on investigation as well as on the 
booking of result of the investigation, basically, has been 
given during a period in which Civil Servant Investigator 
carrying his investigation. As a result, the principle of fast 
and effective procedures as prescribed by Criminal 
Proceedings Law can be implemented. IP/N/lIIDN/C/l

Figure 16 
This amendment is meant to adjust to international 
rules concerning, in particular, Neighboring Rights. This 
constitutes an anticipation toward the possibility for the 
accession of the Republic of Indonesia- into bilateral! 
multilateral agreements concerning the rights.
