Abstract

The act of giving and receiving has been a practice since feudal times. Gifts or tributes to kings or officials, among other forms of giving, are part of traditional customs and are considered social etiquette. To address these issues, the authors analyze the theory of criminal liability, lawlessness, legal pluralism, and the legal system. This research uses a normative juridical research methodology. The findings reveal that there are no clear boundaries concerning regulations related to bribery and gratuities, specifically regarding gifts or promises in which civil servants or public officials can or cannot accept. The application of the bribery and gratuity clause was misdirected, resulting in innocent individuals being punished while the guilty were acquitted.

Abstract

Cross-border business transactions have the potential to be corrupted, especially in the form of bribery committed by actors from different countries and within different jurisdictions. The Indonesian Corruption Law has not regulated how to criminalize Indonesian public officials or certain private companies who bribe officials in other countries or vice versa. Although Indonesia has ratified the United Nation Convention Against Corruption, it has not adopted provision on bribery of foreign public officials. Among the international community, the regulations for bribery of foreign public officials have been started by the US Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977. The United Kingdom also has an international bribery law for British entities called the United Kingdom Bribery Act 2010. The research issue is the implementation of the bribery article to the providers and receivers, under the conditions that they are not Indonesian citizens and the crimes were done outside of Indonesia. By using normative legal research method, the authors expect to provide an overview of Indonesian legal arrangements regarding the bribery of foreign public officials in order to banish foreign bribery practices that involve Indonesians and foreigners.
