All international agreements ratified by the Government of Indonesia and ratified by laws of ratification or ratification must be transformed into transformation laws so that they can be applied in court because judges are not bound by international agreements made by the Executive agency but by legal regulations made by the agency. Legislature in accordance with the theory of separation of powers based on function, it is time for the Government of Indonesia to review its narcotics policy on the basis of the benefits and health rights of its citizens. Based on the results of the UN voting, it can be used as medical legitimacy that must be followed by member countries including Indonesia which always refers to the provisions of the 1961 Single Narcotics Convention. With the ratification of the 1961 Single Convention on Narcotics, including the Amendment Protocol that permits the research and use of medical marijuana, and a list of drug categories that may be amended by Regulation of the Minister of Health.

Provisions that allow changes to class I drugs in the list of the Narcotics Law are good legal political evidence that can support research and use of medical marijuana.
