Company Law to be Judicially Reviewed

Sunday, August 19, 2007

Still an unconfirmed news (will be confirmed if they log their case on the Court's registrar). Chairman of Apindo Sofjan Wanandi planned to submit a Judicial Review of the newly enacted Company Law to the Constitutional Court. He argued (link in Bahasa) that the Merger Rules on the new law -- which obligates companies to announce its merger decision prior to general meeting of shareholders-- was unfair.

I still don't know how it can violate the Constitution. Article 33 of the Constitution expressed that the economy is built upon a 'common endeavour' based on familial principles. I suppose, the families here could mean the workers too.
