- Abstract
The Business Competition Supervisory Commissions (KPPU) has competencies to mediate and monitor various disputes in the business competition realm in Indonesia as well as to superintend the application of exclusive dealing agreements. Moreover, KPPU is an independent force and has the necessary authority to ensure open-mindedness in business as stipulated in the Prohibition of Monopolistic Practices and Unfair Business Competition Law (Law No 5 Year 1999). It is considered by many that any corporate entity that practices unhealthy competition in economic terms is a cartel, using methods such as exclusive dealing agreements. The application of the exclusive dealing agreements in the drinking water industry are forms of poor competitiveness utilized by businesses to achieve monopoly. This paper aims to examine the law enforcement challenges for business competitions, primarily in Indonesia’s bottled water industry; the roles of KPPU in said industry; the provision of the Anti-monopoly laws; and what effect the KPPU had so far in the sector to solve the problems.
